Just finished installing an AKT in my WASR-10. Easy install, just take your time fitting the safety roll pin. On my trigger pull gauge, it averaged 2lbs, 9 oz for five pulls. I'm impressed!

Please view the link below for the AKT product overview where Bill discusses the unique characteristics of the AKT.

What's going to be the approximate trigger pull weight of these triggers?

If it is less than 3.5 lbs you can remove the main spring and bend each leg down in 5 – 10 degree increments, clockwise at the bend point, immediately after the coil, with a pair of pliers to increase the pull weight. Please let me know if this helps. |

Just got mine installed on my NDS-2SF receiver, the rifle is a krinkov SBR, here's what I found
The trigger is awesome feeling, can't wait to hit the range My trigger DID NOT need the roll pin, HOWEVER, when I installed a Krebs custom safety, the trigger would engage while the safety was in the safe selection, so therefore it would need a roll pin had I switched over to the kreb's safety be wary of switching out safeties everyone, this could affect whether you need roll pins or not |

I installed this trigger last week,and I must say, it's as smooth as the krebs modified trigger in my AK103K-S, the break however isnt even comparable, it's consistant and crisp, and reset is short. It's the best ak trigger I've ever felt.

Does anyone know if the ALG trigger is compatible with the Yugo underfolder (M70AB2T)? Yugo's can be quirky and wanted to see if anyone has already installed one.

I've had the chance to install and test fire an AKT for a friend of mine and it is difficult for me to imagine an AK trigger like the AKT-E that features a crisper trigger along with any shorter a reset than the AKT already offers. I've come to expect great things from Geissele/ALG so I'm sure that the AKT-E will be no different...only time will tell as to whether the enhanced version will prove to be worth the wait/added cost for a couple rifle upgrades or if the AKT better fill the bill. Just not so sure I want/need a "precision" rifle trigger in any AK-pattern rifle, but I'll wait and see before passing judgment. |

My AKM has a double hook Tapco G2 in it from the factory and it's a good trigger. It's miles better than the gritty factory triggers in my Colt ARs.
But if this ALG trigger is even better then I'm curious. But I'm a AK noob so I don't know if it's kosher to put a single hook trigger in a receiver cut for a double hook. What says the hive? Oh and one last little thread hijack. Please ALG offer a large pin AR trigger for us older Colt owners. I can't justify a $250+ G trigger. |

Single hook in a double hook is plenty kosher, doing it the other way around means cutting your receiver to fit the extra hook and is therefore not kosher

Works quite well to eliminate over travel. |

Is it ok to use these with Damage Industries' hammer spring? Anybody have this combo? Would this spring increase or decrease the pull weight vs. the factory spring?

Hi Beanz2, We are working on fulfilling the preorder list for dealer and individuals. Its difficult to pinpoint the fastest way to receive your AKT. The AKT was released before the enhanced version which we are still working on. Please feel free to give us a call at the shop, (610) 635-8937, and we will be happy to put you on the list and get one out to you as soon as possible. |

You can remove the main spring and bend each leg down in 5 – 10 degree increments, clockwise at the bend point, immediately after the coil, with a pair of pliers to increase the pull weight. Let me know if this helps. |

Something along the lines of a traditional AK looking trigger. I love my new ALG trigger in my Arsenal SLR AK, but admit one would look awfully out of place on my wood stocked old Yugo AK that has that early 80's look to it. I would love to see a traditional trigger shaped offering. |

I ordered one from AIM. Came in today.
I think it was a bad idea.....now I have to sell all my other triggers and buy a crapload of these.
Will the enhanced version cut down on creep? Or is that just inherent to the design of the AK FCG? |

Got my new DDI Stamped AK and my AKT trigger yesterday. Attempted to install my trigger and discovered that the notch cut in the bottom of the receiver that allows the trigger to move back and forth on its fulcrum is too short to allow this due to the square cut on the bottom of the trigger underneath the hook (for lack of a better description). Not so much a gripe or critique but I wanted others to be aware that this was the case. It no fitty

Not so much a gripe or critique but I wanted others to be aware that this was the case. It no fitty I just got my ALG Trigger today and installed it into my WASR. I thought I was going to have the same problem when I test fit it, but when I fully installed it, it worked great. I did end up having to install and then grind down the roll pin that makes contact with the safety. I probably had to grind about .10 off the pin. After I got it in, I tried the trigger and even though it had a light pull, it was very short and crisp, with virtually no creep. ALG is now including an auxiliary spring to tighten up the trigger pull a bit, so I then installed that spring and the trigger pull felt about a pound heavier. VERY NICE!!! I think I'll leave that spring in for now. I also found a video from ALG on Youtube that shows how to install this trigger, but it was a bit long-winded and I ended up just reading the well-thought-out instructions that came with the trigger. I had a Tapco G2 trigger before this one. The G2 had a nice pull, but it had some serious trigger slap. According to ALG, their trigger completely eliminates trigger slap. I'll be going shooting in four days so I'll report back on how it works. |
