Shooting Sight trigger showed up today. I won't get a chance to install it until this weekend, but it looks great, as Art's work typically does. |

I haven't bought one yet, does it come with good installation instructions? I'm assuming it is not exactly the same as installing an AR trigger. |

So I found out yesterday that Art has two stage triggers for the ARX: http://shop.shootingsight.com/Beretta-ARX-100-two-stage-trigger-BRX-TRG.htm
Mine's already ordered. I have his Tavor and SCAR trigger and they are works of art*. AJ *Yeah, I know it's a horrible pun, but I went with it anyway. |

Trigger from Art. Is amazing. I have it installed. It is better than most match triggers I have used. Have not fired it yet, but I am completely impressed and satisfied. I will drag out my Lyman digital trigger gauge in a few and report the pull weight.
My Lyman is actually measuring a total pull of 7.4 lbs. But when I pull with my finger, it seems like about 3 lbs. It is deceptive, I guess. But an amazing trigger. |

Has anyone heard anything from Beretta about the ARX at the NRA show?
The NRA show is basically over now and I haven't heard or seen anything about anything... It's almost like the NRA show didn't happen.

Surely someone that went to the NRA show got some kind of time frame in which we might see the FDE version shipping to dealers... Not that a time frame would mean much coming from Beretta. |

Anyone else have their Magpul MBUS Pro front sight fold during recoil? I was out sighting them in today and the front sight would start to fold about every 3 to 5 rounds. I think I remember hearing about this once before from someone else with the Magpul MBUS Pro front sight on their ARX.

Saw an ARX-100 at the Dallas Market Hall show last weekend for $1000.
Guess Schramm's had been sitting on it for a while and wanted it gone. I was very, very tempted to get a second ARX for that price but passed.
With all that's going on, maybe I should have bought it. It was still there on day 2 at lunch time, so they may still have it for all I know. Crazy deal. |
