Guys,
The new WC single stage drop in trigger unit, TTU, is shipping....here is the link to our website.... http://www.wilsoncombat.com/ttu.asp 
Introducing the TR-TTU an all-new single-stage trigger unit that is easily user installed in any AR pattern rifle. Exclusive Wilson Combat engineering enables a durable, sub-4lb, ultra-crisp trigger pull without any fine tuning or adjustment. Reduced, positive trigger reset guarantees a quick follow up shot on target. The unique hammer geometry enhances reliable ignition with military and surplus ammunition of all types while a secondary rescue sear allows the TTU to meet or exceed military specifications for drop safety. Pre-assembled, CNC machined aluminum trigger housing contains Stainless steel trigger and springs in conjunction with tool steel action parts for trouble-free installation and long lasting performance. Designed and extensively tested by shooters for shooters, the new Tactical Trigger Unit has raised the bar for drop-in AR triggers. |

Very cool. Do you have any stats on testing of the trigger?
ETA: If you need any feed back you can always send me one for testing.  I'll be running a high round count class in the next month that would be a good test of durability.

Remman,
I can try to get more detailed info, but I do remember that one stage of testing involves 6 production triggers[not hand fitted "Prototypes"]. They mechanically cycled each trigger 20,000 times, then live fired each 500 rounds. They then performed government prescribed drop tests on all 6 rifles, after the triggers being cycled 20,500 times, and all passed with no failures. The triggers never even fell to the secondary rescue sear, the primary sear held every time. To test the secondary rescue sear, the testers had to grind away primary sear engagement to make the first sear notch fail  . The triggers were never disassembled, cleaned, or lubed during the testing.
We spent lots of time testing these triggers......you will be VERY pleased

Man, if only this wasn't 300 dollars. Seriously. I think 200 dollars is bad enough for some of the other options, but now 300?
Can someone explain why it cost 300 dollars? |

You guys should definitely put that test information on your website. That was my first concern..
I was like Oh Boy.. Not another drop-in trigger group. My fear has always been the chance of doubling or going full auto on "match"/lightweight trigger groups especially for hard use. I would hate to be "That Guy." |

The development of these triggers have taken several years, two firearms engineers, multiple prototypes and some very high speed materials. We are using some proprietary angles and materials for the hammer/sear surfaces and a few precision grinding tricks to get dead crisp, RELIABLE triggers.
We know all about doubling/failing aftermarket AR triggers-we have been building custom AR's for 10 years and have used the vast majority of other AR triggers-some drop in and some that require fitting. From our standpoint, if you need a hard-use, drop in trigger, this one offers multiple , real performance advantages and one of the the best, no-risk service policies in the gun business. These triggers are Tactical Trigger Units first, match triggers second. Our focus was on dead nuts reliability rather than to see how light we could go. These triggers have plenty of engagment and lots of hammer spring tension. There will be no misfires with these triggers. |

I'm sold, just need to allocate $300 from the gun fund, which of course means moving some other part down on the "I want it" list.

Ill be picking up one to to test. Im really glad to see a hard use SINGLE STAGE Trigger. If I like them well be stocking them at our shop.
2 Stage Triggers feel like shit and I never had a use for them. If I want movement before the break a factory trigger does the same thing. |

Got mine today and put it in my Bushmaster
The Trigger seems great to me, It had a RR 2 stage in before in it was not for me. These triggers have no movement as you load them and break cleanly with only a small amount of forward movement required for the trigger to reset. Havent had the chance to shoot with it in yet. |

I really want one of these. It looks like a silver/chrome trigger - is that right?
I may have to have them ARMOR-TUFF it black. |

The trigger pad itself is bead blasted stainless....dull grey. If you want it armor tuff coated black, ask the customer service rep when you place your order. It may take a bit longer, but they could probally do it

Now if you only built a hammer with an auto disconnector sear interface and a disconnector with an auto selector spur this would be something. I know it's a small market but I have long desired a drop in select fire trigger. Any RDIAS or LL owner would probably agree with me.

Eukatae,
I hear ya, but that is for an very small market, and it would require a much more complicated design. I don't see that model coming anytime soon

this makes me think about selling my timney...? so far i really like my timney but im open to new stuff.
i can tell some big diffirences in just looking at them both. wanna state some diffirences between the timney and yours? how does it compare to your (i guess older ttu) trigger? http://weaponparts.storesecured.com/items/ar15-accessories/wilson-combat-ttu-trigger/wilson-combat-ar-15-ttu-drop-in-trigger-wilson-combat-ttu-trigger-detail.htm |

Like the request for a select fire group, we don't have plans at this time for a colt compatible large pin trigger unit. Right now, we are working hard to fill orders for the current model. I imagine that a large pin model would come before the select fire version, but not dates, plans or even drawings at this time. I will certainly keep everyone apprised.
Whitson01, the trigger group pictured is not a older model, but it is a early pic of a prototype. I really don't like to get into discussions of other companies products, but our trigger group is built with more than just a great trigger let off in mind. Our TTU has a extra "rescue notch" sear engagement, to catch the hammer in case the hammer somehow is jarred loose from the primary sear engagement. This also prevents doubling from hammer follow. We also know that AR shooters l tend to run their guns fast, in tactical training and practical competitions, so we made sure the trigger featured VERY positive reset. There is much more to our TTU than just a super crisp trigger break, but it certainly has that feature also

Manufacturing has a cost. Warranties have a cost. Liability insurance has a cost. Oh, yeah, they also like that little thing called profit. Profit lets them invest more in R+D and take care of their workers. Taking care of your workers makes it easier for them to want to do an exceptional job MAKING these triggers. Do you REALLY want them making the chevy aveo of triggers? The REALLY cool thing about it, simply, is that YOU get to decide if you want it. If $300 is too much for you, then obviously, there are many other fine choices. When someone makes something that works, as advertised, and comes from a company with a reputation for quality, you get to pay a price, or not, that they decide. Either this thing will sell at $300, or it won't. If a few people try it, and find that it's the best trigger ever made, you'll think $300 is fair. If it's a pos, you'll know that as well. TXL |
