Holy FUCKING DOG SHIT.  this is literally one of the coolest things I have seen.  I like how the selector moves to auto also.

Looks interesting. It says ATF compliant/non-NFA but I wonder if they have an ATF letter? I predict a LOT of butt hurt and wailing and gnashing of teeth over this product.

Did they basically make it act like an overgassed reactive trigger on a tippman A-5 paintball gun. Basically, the trigger forces your finger forward and you just keep pulling the whole time?

I wouldn't mind having something like that, but I would only buy it at the gun show, with cash.
That way when they are declared illegal you can just smash it and not have to worry if the ATF took you off the list when they got it back or not.

I am super curious about this.

I would almost guaranty that it has something to do with what looks some what like an trip.  Look near the rear of the trigger below.

USAutoWeapons is already selling 4 rifles with the trigger in it. All the upgrades, bells and whistles...NOT CHEAP. But beautiful weapons none the less. Check em out.  A buddy of mine has one I just found out.  

They'll be retailing for around $500 he said.

I'm really looking forward to an update on this.  

Just putting the selector to the rearward position gets me going.

Also, this gives those people that have three position marked semi lowers something more to look forward to.

I'm not digging the selector they show it coming with.  I prefer the look of standard ones.

I wonder if a standard M16 selector would work, and would it be legal?  I mean, isn't this technically a 3 position M16 selector being put into a semi auto lower?

$500 seems steep. I was expecting $299 or maybe $399. Hopefully the semi auto is a quality trigger too.

How about this, extra cost = $ 0.00, standard mill spec parts, ALG trigger...Go Skinny Joe !

A decent trigger, good training, well put together rifle will get it done...JMHO.

Granted it does seem pretty nice and well made, but at $ 500 + ???

It looks similar in theory to a reactive trigger from AGD or Tippmann.  It keeps the "one shot per pull" requirement this way.  From the pictures, I would assume that the lever looking device on the rear of the trigger is some sort of cam system, or whatever you might call it.  When the carrier slams forward, it acts on the trigger, pushing it forward against your finger with more force than the springs alone.  It would then disengage from the trigger as the bolt locks up, thus reducing the trigger pull to its normal weight.  Keep steady pressure on the trigger, and it will simulate full-auto.  I am sure there is a range of pressure that would work, explaining why some people seem to be getting higher cyclic rates.

just handled one, switching to auto results in a shorter reset and the trigger does push forward as you cycle the action.   However, I think you still need to let the trigger return a bit further than the auto assist before you engage the reset.

Autoweapons is charging more than a $1000 premium so I am surprised the trigger is even $500.

http://usautoweapons.com/product.usm4-mode-3-select-fire-capable-650-rounds-per-minute-16-rifle-black-non-nfa-2

It seemed feasible and if it works as well as the video suggests, I wouldn't be surprised if they get banned one way or the other.  With a slide fire, you really can't see criminals using it.  But this thing seems to run well when running and gunning.

One quick question. When you were cycling the weapon were you letting the bolt slam home while holding the trigger? Just curious and trying to get as much info as possible on this triggers method of operation. Thanks.

Thats what I thought too looking at the video but the rifle with the fcg installed is listed at 650+ rounds per minute. I can't squeeze off almost 11 rounds a second. Screwing around I was able to get 7 once. Usually its 5 or 6 and that is for a very short time. Definitely not long enough for a mag dump.  Maybe some of you veteran shooters can do better but I havent even seen the pros shooting that fast. If they are doing it please post a link because I'd honestly enjoy watching that.

As a comparison, my beloved M60 was 550 RPM...so if this is 650, it's faster.  I like the idea, but wouldn't be willing to risk $500 on something another bureaucrat will write a letter interpreting it as not being legal a year from now.  Nice system of law, bureaucrats writing letters...

I have run a semi auto MP5 clone at 450 on a timer.   I am sure I could dig around the safe and probably find something that I could get up to 500 rpm.  

But I think it would get pretty hard to run any semi auto much faster than 500 rpm unless you have some sort external crank.   Once I found an interrupter to keep the hammer from following the bolt home, I got a 10/22 with a crank up to maybe 600 rpm.

Nah. If it really does work at well as they say, and if I can get it to run in a dedicated .22, I will be happy to pay that much.

Does the bolt go back in 22's? If not i doubt  it will work because it is the bolt that works the triggers action.

In a way yes, but I am not really seeing how the mechanism works, as there are not many pictures of the trigger itself. The cam system at the rear of the trigger seems to be used to operate with the 3 position safety. It is hard to tell how the bolt interacts with the trigger itself.

I call this release fire.
Not sure about legality... but it is very simple on an AK and probably on an AR15 with an AK like trigger (such as a rock river's double stage - probably a standard trigger will work also) a tapped hole on the bottom side of a trigger with a screw will lift the disconnector to achieve the same thing.
A less "permanent" solution could be a shim between the trigger and disconnector (cut a piece of a credit card... maybe double it up ?)

in normal operation the aperture (the opening gap between the disconnector and trigger hook) must be slightly smaller than the hammer’s arresting pads. If not, the disconnector or trigger will fail to catch the hammer resulting in doubling, a released hammer on a loaded chamber, which is exactly what is happening here.



                     tapped hole above where your index goes                        ?
I have not tried this, but if the aperture is too large it could possibly slam fire that would be dangerous and illegal for sure!
My understanding of semi is one round per trigger cycle meaning pull and release.
I would not attempt it until I have a letter in hand.

I like the concept, a much cleaner approach to the problem than the Slidefire stocks, and doesn't require practice with very expensive ammo and still not being certain of getting it down correctly, every time.

If only it didn't cost a new Glock.

Maybe you should take the top cover and bolt carrier group of an AK one day and observe how the trigger group operates... I am sorry I could not be any clearer in describing the operation and relationship between the three components...

I believe that a lot of what the cost is can be attributed to R & D.

People fail to understand that just developing a entirely new product can result in significant costs.

Negative.  Speculation here but I have read that these triggers will be serialized.  Currently this would be a situation of grandfathering, one could assume...

Now, nothing logical is set in stone by any particular branch of Gov. but, that being said, it would likely be a grandfather or not to grandfather issue and I would go with the former.
