Posted By: DakotaDeer LaRue MBT vs. Geisselle SSA - 08/26/16
Has anyone shot both the LaRue MBT trigger and the Geisselle SSA?

They appear to have the same specs on paper. How do they compare to one another in real life?
I've shot the SSA and it didn't feel much different from a Rock River Arms national match to me. I much prefer the SSA-E. I can think of no reason to get the SSA over the SSA-E.
Fingered an MBT on another shooters rifle. Thought it somewhat comparable to an SSA without having one handy to make a direct comparison. The contour of the trigger is different though and I prefer the SSA in that regard. I bought one SSA years ago and then an SSA-E. I think I now have four of them (SSA-E) and never bought another SSA again.
I've only dry fired the LaRue trigger but I was thoroughly unimpressed. It was OK, but it didn't raise any eyebrows.
My MBT is every bit as good as my Geissele's. It compares most with my SD-E and I like it better than the SSA. They are made right, like the Geissele's are. However, there's lots of LaRue dislike in general so some will likely give a negative opinion no matter what. My MBT trigger was free so I am giving my honest and unbiased opinion.

Keep in mind the variances in receiver trigger pin holes, drop in triggers won't feel the same in all lowers.
