Each of our lower parts kits ships with an enhanced hammer and trigger assembly. We start with a quality Mil-Spec hammer and trigger and micro polish the engagement surfaces. This gives the shooter excellent trigger feel and a very clean break.

Micro polished eh?
Can you give a but more detail on this process? Any sort of warranty or post issue customer support on this? The issue with doing trigger work on AR15 parts is that polish work tends to be easy to go too far and wear through the surface hardening. Add that with a high round count and you could be doubling in no time. This can be a huge legal issue. Just curious what steps you have taken to prevent this. |

First we are NOT taking an already manufactured hammer and trigger and then doing a follow-on finish. Your right this would likely render a hammer and trigger out of Spec. We are actually doing the Polish during the grinding process. Instead of doing a rough cut and then the standard MilSpec grind, we actually use a Finer stone at a slower more precise feed rate to achieve the smoother and more consistent finish. Then we use a polishing wheel to give it the over the top glass smooth surface. For durability the polished surface actually increases the life expectancy due to less friction at the surface. We also have a soon to be released Nickel Teflon Coated hammer and trigger, that offers self lubricating properties, a higher Rockwell surface hardness, and an unbelievably smooth and consistent trigger pull, for a standard trigger mechanism. Thank you, and happy building! |

I'd hate to order something only to have a better version come out shortly after. |

Thank you, and happy building! The process you describe sounds very promising. I'm not one to get caught up in trigger pull weight, but sooner or later, someone's going to ask. I'm going to guess that the trigger breaks at the lower end of "Mil Spec" just like the ALG trigger, which I find to be a very good value. It sounds like ALG may have some competition in the market place. If it performs like the ALG trigger, the price you're offering is more than reasonable. The impressive thing about the ALG trigger, is that it's consistent. I like a trigger that is predictable, and clean, not necessarily light. I'm interested to hear how well this trigger performs.

so all you did was take a mil-spec LPK and polish the contact points? Good business idea actually, I'd do the same thing.

Will you be selling the nickle teflon triggers seperately or only in full kits?

Thanks for the responses.
Depends on how you look at it but we are not modifying a Mil-spec part, we are modifying the manufacturing steps and process. The Nickel Teflon hammers and triggers will be sold separately and in kits. We are working out the pricing right now. I will be releasing these in a couple days along with our Nickel Teflon BCG's and AR-10's. Here are a couple photos of our Standard polished and the new Nickel Teflon. We are also working on tinting the nickel to remove the shine.

Will triggers all be serrated like the one in the photo, or will they be available with a standard smooth face? |

I just ordered one kit to test the trigger/hammer in a New Frontier lower and a Century Arms Ar-15 sporter.
Will also be tested for the 9mm conversion. |

I got one of these from you last week and installed it in a pistol build. This is by far the smoothest out of the box trigger I have ever felt. Everything fit and functioned perfectly. This is going to be my new go-to lower parts kit. Any chance you guys are going to offer a .308 parts kit in the future?

Are these CAST or MIM??

These start as Mil-Spec Investment Cast units. The Nickel-Teflon set pictured is a MIM unit.

We are putting together our .308 kits as well as our Nickel-Teflon LPKs for both calibers as we speak. They should be available in the very near future. |

As I stated earlier, the units shown in the photo on the right, with the Nickel-Teflon coating, are MIM. We ran a small batch of MIM in the past and have been using Investment castings (mil-spec) since. All of our Enhanced LPKs ship with Mil-Spec investment cast derived hammers and triggers. The old stock of Nickel-Teflon hammers and triggers are MIM, but that remains the only MIM products we carry currently. |

Anyone else have issues installing the selector with this trigger? I had a heck of a time and had to slip the selector pin in and then slide the trigger back in.

Two Questions
Are the roll pins the coil type? If not, why not? Why nickel teflon the whole surface, rather than just the engagement surfaces. That would be like micro polishing the entire part, vs just what is needed. Ok, three questions...

edited for bad spelling and beer grammar. Roll pins are not coil type. - Our kits are naturally somewhat tailored for our Lowers, which are billet and tapped. Our lowers do not use any of the supplied roll pins. Also we carry a hardware kit that would allow a user of a different lower that wanted to use our threaded bolt catch pin/screw to do so. - Coating a specific portion of a piece is very difficult and time consuming. The nickel-teflon does not only provide lubricity. It also provides a much more durable coating that will prevent rust and corrosion. |
