Quote HistorySo I figure you had to cut the rivets out of the old trigger pin, did you have to re-rivet this one in? I would buy three of them, but I don't know shit about swapping Ak triggers or if this one is any different. |

I'm sure you're tired of fielding questions on the AKT-E, but here's one that I don't think has been asked.
Will the AKT-E come with the AK High Energy Main Spring (or something similar)? I saw it's on sale on the ALG site, and figured I should get one if the AKT-E isn't going to come with it already. |

We are still working on the coatings for the AKT-E. All sear geometry is done, we just have to get things just right. |

It is because we will not put out something that is just not the very best.
We can just nickel boron the parts but the feel with these surfaces rubbing against each other is just not right. I think we have found the right coating but there is some preparation associated with it (tooling) and we are working on that |

Quote HistoryQuoted:
How does the ALG spring affect the trigger pull? Lighter pull? The ALG High Energy Mainspring develops 25% more torque over a standard factory main spring, lowering lock time and also increasing the consistency of primer ignition. The auxiliary spring is an optional spring designed to increase the pull weight without bending the mainspring. This spring will add 10-14 oz. of pull weight. If you are looking to add a greater amount of pull weight, the auxiliary spring can be used in a different configuration adding 1-1.2 lbs. |

If you guys are waiting to buy the AKT you need to drop everything and BUY IT NOW.
This thing is insane!!!!! I think it's on par or BETTER than any of their AR triggers I've tried (SD-C and SSA-E). Absolutely incredible in my pap m92 SBR. I filed on the safety trying to get it to fit (not in the instructions, don't be a moron like me) ended up taking too much off and luckily by design I just installed their roll pin and filed it to fit and now the safety works perfectly. What a great product. If you are waiting for the AKT-E please do yourself a favor and snag the AKT. The trigger is freaking light and I dare say I can't find a flaw in it. Great job Geissele! Their install vid is on YouTube and worth the watch. |

What buttstock, grip, foregrip, and muzzle device do you have on this rifle?
I bought an AK about 3 years ago with all Tapco and CAA furniture. Its cheap feeling and makes the rifle heavy and not very fun to shoot. Can't wait to replace the G2 with something from ALG. I'm a huge fan of Geissele in my ARs and the G2 bump fires on me. Quote HistoryQuoted:

So many other companies out there regardless of industry either feel the need to rush products or have another company pushing them to release incomplete products. The fact Geissele will only sell what they deem as perfect is part of the reason why I choose Geissele over an other company out there for my trigger needs. I'll gladly wait for them to get it right. The wait for this trigger results in a better product as opposed to waiting on the ATF for something that should be automated *cough cough* Form 3 *cough cough*. |

It's a small spring that adds about 1lb to pull weight. The HEMS really doesn't add mush to pull weight. A least in reference to a good mainspring. To a whipped out mainspring there is a difference though |

I must be missing something, maybe a spring.
My AKT was a first generation, did not come with any mainspring, and I had to use the original Russian spring. When you described the auxilliary spring I thought it was something additional to the HEM. Sorry about the confusion. All I wAnt is a trigger pull a pound heavier. |

It seems that recent AKT's are shipping with the small "auxilliary" spring, that is installed alongside the mainspring should you desire a heavier trigger pull. My first generation AKT had no such spring.
On Monday I will call in to ALG hoping they would send me one when I order the HEM. |

However, it is still a bit light and I dont know how reliable this will be and if the spring will lighten up over time. I think that is why ALG started including the auxiliary spring in the current kits. I still like the AKT but it needed to be fitted to my AKs. |

The AKT design objectively or subjectively makes the trigger feel lighter with the same spring. I assume the heavier ALG hammer spring will make the other FCGs feel heavier also which would not be necessarily bad. I am curious about the designs of the spring. Is the solid wire spring better or more reliable than the traditional double wound wire spring ? |

I just installed the AK trigger. I used the ALG solid hammer spring and the extra spring that comes with the trigger kit. I did not bend the new hammer spring.
My trigger pull is between 3 lbs 2 oz and 3 lbs 7 oz, measured with a Lyman electric gauge. It is hard to measure with that light a pull. I haven't tried it at the range yet. My original factory pull was over 7 lbs with the crap Arsenal quasi 2 stage factory trigger. I think I would like a 4 to 5 pound pull better but I want to try the ALG as is before I try bending the trigger spring. |

Hi Ravelo,
How much pull weight would you like to add? The Auxiliary spring can be installed two different ways for two different pull weights. You can add 10-14 oz. or 1-1.2lbs. with this spring. |
