Buy once cry once SSA-E

This. ^^^^

And they're really not that bad when you buy during the holiday sales.

The SSA-E is a great Trigger. Their holidays sales are really good. I just picked up their Single Stag to try out.

Yeah, the SSA-E was $168 the other day. Hard to beat that deal. Heck, for $87.00, the op could give the Larue tactical MBT2S at try. Although, it doesnt seem like hes open to the idea of giving a good 2 stage a try.

I just received the Larue tactical MBT2S, $94 shipped...2 week wait

Yep

Has anyone tried the Geiselle single stage trigger (the new one, not the 3Gun trigger)?

Yes. We have ten or twelve. What are you looking for?

What do you personally think?

Good, bad, Indifferent?

What would you use it for, and for what purposes would you not use it?

Just curious what you think. I don’t like a 2 stage for match use but their 3G trigger isn’t ideal either.

BTW Proctor is coming in April.

I just bought one on the black friday sale. Haven't installed it yet.

Good for what it was designed for- speed shooting. For 3-gun, etc. I like it very much. For precision shooting it does have discernible creep if you are sensitive to it.








It’s completely different than the 3-gun trigger. As above, I like it for speed shooting. Super quick, short, and heavy reset.



Pistol or rifle class with Frank?

Thanks.

I appreciate the report.

Not sure yet, Form. He'll be at the TTPOA Conference but registration won't open until next week. We're working on getting him to stay for another few days for a competition pistol class and shoot a L2 match in Houston that's around that time.

The best single stage triggers I own & have used are the Elftmann Match & the Rise RA-535.

I find no discernible creep in either one & the Elftmann is set to just over 3 lb & is adjustable, reset is very quick & solid.

The Rise is not adjustable & breaks at 4 lb, is extremely crisp & also has a very fast & solid reset.

But for truly precision shooting in my LR type guns, I really prefer a 2 stage trigger, either an SSA-E or a re-sprung SSA works fine for me.

I picked up the Elftmann at a gunshow in one of their open display grips. I dropped it on the table from about 2 feet and it went off. I put it back on the table and walked away.

Not sure about the display's relationship to being in a rifle, so really can't comment other than to say, you do know that Elf's have a half-cock notch like a 1911 so it's very possible for the hammer to drop to the half cock notch & not drop all the way to fire?

I've knocked mine over from standing up a couple of times to test (simulate just getting knocked over) it & it's not dropped to the fire position.

Was gunning CMC's on 22LR,17HMR(2),17 Whizzum and 224 Grendel Krunchentickers today.

The SSA-E is the biggest piece of fhuqking schit,I've ever seen/shot.......................

If you can't hit with an SSA-E, well, you just suck.

Merry Christmas!

MM,

I did not know that. This one dropped all the way. Of course, this was a sample of one...

I think it may have had something to do with the angle at which it hit, I've dropped other Elf's flat on a flat surface and did not get the same result. The one mentioned above hit at an odd angle, and to be fair, you are right, it was not in an actual receiver.
