Not sure if it's been asked. But if one were to buy this trigger as an accessory. Does the selector come with the trigger, and does the trigger come with shims?

Yes the selector and shims will be with the trigger

I went about 10 pages back looking...

Has anybody seen or posted video to YouTube of a 9mm version running with a BFS yet?

Yeah I think it was a cmmg lower a few pages back. FA has the video on their Facebook page too. Seem to run well. I plan on putting one of the triggers in my 9mm qc10 build but I'm going to have to file the trigger housing in order to get it to fit in the billet lower. I will probably have to tune it to run faster

I've been pretty impressed with how this guy unloads with the BFS

Anyway, I think this trigger would be perfect in a classic commando build....so in addition to a lightweight carrier I have ordered the parts for a 10.5" pistol that will pretty much look like this:

I got back to the range today and tried to drop it in my Mega lower.  It would not fit.


I got some great video today, hope to get it edited and uploaded soon but have family stuff this evening.

Nice, you handled that like a boss! From my not so scientific math it looks like around 720rpm's. It runs good that's for sure. What setup are you running as far as spring, buffer, and carrier?

I'm gonna start off with a blue Sprinco spring, empty buffer, and a JP LMOS carrier. With an SLR adjustable block. Hoping it'll run pretty well.

I think you're on track shooting for 11 oz.  Here's my .223 for the day, with a 9.5 oz BCG and 2.0 oz buffer.  I had 2 hammer follows on the first magazine, and no other issues today.  On the last magazine fired in the video you'll hear my timer beep.  Was trying to get the splits.  I don't really trust the results.  I don't know if it was the cold, or the suppressor, but I had to put it on max sensitivity to get anything to register, and at that point it would register clicking the buttons.  But there were a few strings with .10 - .15 splits

It's a MVB arc stock and I can only use the springs made for it. It's a dual spring setup and pretty strong. The spring feel like Wolf extra power when in the gun. I think they will work fine.

This is the only trigger besides  full auto that makes me grin after shooting it too it looks fun but we are going to need more ammo

I should be able to run a few tests with 11 oz on 300 blackout later this week. I think I'm going to make two buffers one 3.0 oz and keep the 2.5 oz. The v seven bcg is very light. It deceiving because it looks like a strandard bcg until you pick it up, then its like that's light

Seekins billet is one lower I do not have BUT every billet I have put it in works. Measure the width of the interior of the seekins billet. The BFS trigger housing I have is .6810" and my billets measurements where listed a few pages back. I think the yhm and BAD billets were .6900". High shelf lowers will not work, most billet are low shelf. I think you are not going to have any problems with an ar 15 billet lower

I wish my first suppressor purchase were a Ti one. I thought about getting a yhm Ti but I have not pulled the trigger on it. I may have to wait a while because I bought 2 more of the BFS triggers. I hope they ship on Monday ( fingers crossed)

What I used to do at the range when I had a pick up was back in, and stood off just to the side so my brass would land in the bed.

Ill post the results here. The only thing I would worried about with reducing the buffer weight is getting bolt bounce. I think 9mm is going to be interesting to work with tuning the rifle for optimum fast fire.

I think you're right.  I'm drawing up a roller delayed upper.  There's a guy on Weapons Guild who built a receiver plate that essentially turned an MP5 upper into an AR upper, (to use on his registered machine gun) and that was pretty sweet too.

Bolt bounce is a little bit of a worry for me on the 300 blackout. This afternoon I was screwing around with the buffer weights and these are the two I'm going to use.

The first is a standard carbine weight buffer 3.1 ounces. The photo shows the total weight with the bcg. Very light!


The second is an H1 weight. I used one of the FA buffer steel weights which is lighter than any of my other steel weights.I placed a tungsten weight at the rear of the buffer and the FA steel weight at the front.


My hope is that the tungsten weigh being at the rear will stop any bolt bounce but still tune the rifle to fire very fast like your setup. What do you think?

My hope is that the tungsten weigh being at the rear will stop any bolt bounce but still tune the rifle to fire very fast like your setup. What do you think?

I think you're right.  I'm drawing up a roller delayed upper.  There's a guy on Weapons Guild who built a receiver plate that essentially turned an MP5 upper into an AR upper, (to use on his registered machine gun) and that was pretty sweet too.


Bolt bounce is a little bit of a worry for me on the 300 blackout. This afternoon I was screwing around with the buffer weights and these are the two I'm going to use.

The first is a standard carbine weight buffer 3.1 ounces. The photo shows the total weight with the bcg. Very light!

Yeah I think it was a cmmg lower a few pages back. FA has the video on their Facebook page too. Seem to run well. I plan on putting one of the triggers in my 9mm qc10 build but I'm going to have to file the trigger housing in order to get it to fit in the billet lower. I will probably have to tune it to run faster

I had to take ten thousands off the hammer to allow clearance in the BCG, other than this mod it is a stock BCG and buffer, both heavy.

Who manufactured your 9mm bcg? (I am assuming it was Cmmg but I have to ask)

Do any of you BFS owners own or have access to a Sig MPX 9mm?  It would be interesting to know if or how well this trigger would run on that platform.  It sounds like other aftermarket AR triggers run fine in the MPX.

I have to say...This trigger is looking mighty promising.  That said, I'm waiting to see if the ATF decides to break some recall news or introduce some regulation related to this concept at the SHOT show as they've got a bit of a history of trying to address topics like this when they have all of the big players in the room for SHOT.

If it survives SHOT 2016, I may have to place an order

Whats the difference? It's not like the ATF is gonna run down to your house, and take your BFS trigger pack from you..

Mine was lost in a tragic boating accident, rifle and all.

If they do, at least I got to enjoy the hell out of mine for a while before they did.

I highly doubt they will disapprove the trigger. The binary mode does not meet the federal nfa definition of a machine gun. A MG is one function or pull of the trigger. The BFS is clearly two functions a pull and a release (or a pull in reverse). If the ATF says that two functions is a MG then all semi autos could be classed as MGs. If two functions equals a MG then why not three. They should rule based on the letter of the law. They can not rule by interpretation intent of the law. That would be very subjective in a ruling and lead to a lawsuit. Pretty bad one if thousands of these triggers have been sold.

I'll see when I get out to the range today on the trigger pull wt I get. The release pull would be negative wt and I'm not sure if that will measure. My buddy has the gauge and he is going with me today. To me it feels like an ALG trigger but that was after I broke it in a little. The binary mode feels the same only the release pull is very nice. It shocks you when you cycle it the first time in a dry run. The trigger pull is not as good as a geissele SSA but the BFS is in a class of it own.

Ok..so after showing the sammich maker yalls videos of your triggers in action, i finally got the green light to buy one...

I may have asked before, but i didnt see where it posted...

Is there some sort of discount or promo code for these? Arfcom discount? Free shipping? Free cup of coffee? ANYTHING??

Im ordering one as soon as payday hits...

Also, what type of warranty and/or life expectancy are we looking at with these??
