The two-stage triggers on the more recent models are very nice, and worth giving a try IMO. I just put a Timney on a FN, however, and am very impressed with the qualitÿ. One thing about Howas that annoys me just a bit is the chintzy safety button. If the Timney safety is like the one in my FN, it'd almost be worth swapping in just to ease that burning little itch.
