Home Forums Hunting & Shooting AR and Tactical Rifles Drop in trigger?

Looking for a quality drop in trigger for my Stag Arms 4L.
Appreciate some input if you have any personal experience with them.

3-gun? Hi-power? House-gun/social work? It do matter, IMO.

I had a Chip McCormick in my lefty Stag. A definite improvement over the factory mil-spec unit. The only thing I don't care for is the pins are retained by E-clips on the outside. I had no problems with it over 100 rounds or so. I pulled it out when I sold the gun, still have it if you're interested.

Geissele SSA-E pricy but worth every cent!

Just as a plinker/house gun/shooting varmints off the back porch. Like to keep the cost around $100 or less.

rock river two stage varmint will fill your needs and your price point. ALG if you must have a single stage, a big step above milspec.

Geissele on two AR's. Fantastic trigger. One came on Les Baer and I liked it so much I put one on my RRA national match.

Rock River two stage national match trigger is very good for around $100. I have used them in several rifles.

I installed the ALG ACT for $65 recently. Not a top tier trigger but it is a big improvement over a stock/mil-spec trigger. The creep and grit feeling was magnificently improved and trigger pull weight reduced. I'm a very happy user for my work-horse/fighting M4 carbine.

what is the difference between the RRA NM and varmint triggers, I know the varmint is a lower pull weight. Are they doing that simply by weaker springs?? does the varmint trigger have a weaker hammer spring and thus be limited to ammo with softer primers as in non military ammo??

^^^This!!!^^^

Great triggers for the money!

They were great triggers at $75 but at the current $120, I'll go Geisselle's cheapest model at $130-150 (watch for sales). But these are two stage triggers.

there are a couple on ebay for 80 bucks

I don't do eBay and wouldn't trust anything on there to be the real deal.

I don't really blame you but lots on ebay is real. And then lots isn't.

I have not heard of any fake RRAs. Yet.

there are plenty of era triggers floating around, there is a parts kit with era NM trigger for $150 at a local shop. brown ells has them for 119.

For $139 this Geissele smokes the RR.

i would not say that. That trigger is still the same weight as the rra unit. The rra unit is a decent trigger just a little heavy though. You need the ssa-e to have a useful upgrade over rra

Knowing Bill Geiselle personally, I"d bet his trigger is an improvement in some ways over the RRA one. Just not like Bill to reproduce someone elses "thing" without some improvements, if nothing else of material quality.

Pull weight is not the only thing to consider. ANd its an easy thing to adjust on top of that.

After giving this a lot of thought decided the $80 RRA trigger would be fine for my occasional use.
Appreciate all the input.
