As much as my response will bother you, I don't care about grammar, punctuation, or spelling. I'm a budding, failing comedian, not an English major. Deal with it!
The AK Trigger (AKT) from ALG Defense is a single stage trigger machined from triple alloy steel designed to replace the stock trigger of the AK47 and AK74 variant platforms. ALG Defense’s AKT provides a lighter, easier pull for the shooter. The AKT also features a unique trigger bow, the ALG Defense Lightning Bow. Shooters will enjoy the shorter trigger pull and faster reset. We at ALG Defense believe that every gun enthusiast should have access to fine craftsmanship without breaking the bank. Customize your weapon and make it your own.

| Pretty sure you guys are not going to get your specific technical questions answered in here, my question went completely overlooked. Im pretty sure "italianprincess" does not know technical specifics of this tirgger, and is just a rep replying with portions of the marketing description for it |

Im pretty sure "italianprincess" does not know technical specifics of this tirgger, and is just a rep replying with portions of the marketing description for it Unfortunately it looks like this is true. No real information here. Just taking up space as an ALG advertisement. In any case I don't need a lighter trigger as the tapco is pretty light already. For $30 more I can get a milled power custom trigger and adjust it to the way I want. |

The AKT allows for a short pull and short reset with a reduced overtravel. We are releasing an instructional video early next week were Bill explains the ins and outs of the AK trigger. Thank you! |

Hi Sublimeon24s, The AKT will only be offered in a single hook. However, the single hook is wider to help with wear. We are releasing a video early next week where Bill explains the AKT in detail. Thank you |

Ok on closeup it looks casted like the tapco. I hope its not injection molded like the Arsenals. I also hope it's not just surface hardened. The pics on the ALG site also shows two small bushings but not sure where they go. Maybe in the disconnect spring or back of the trigger.
I also hope it will it work with the Nodak NDS3 economy receivers without mods to avoid the hammer follow problems. Will await video I will eventually get one but hope it's not too light. |
| I'm pretty happy with the Tapco trigger that came with my WASR but I was actually kinda stoked that ALG is making an AK trigger. Installed my first ALG trigger in one of my ARs (a QMS, their cheapest one) and it's the best single stage trigger I have. But I'll wait til I see some solid feedback from others who have replaced their G2s with an ALG. |

I got my contest AKT this morning. Installed it and have been dry firing it all evening....it's *amazing*.
The AK has never had an upgrade like this to really make the platform 'better'- count on the people at geissele/ALG to take the AK platform to the next level. The trigger has a little bit of softness to it and it's obviously not a 'carrot' break like the two-stage trigger geissele is known for, but its a HUGE step up from a basic tapco G2 or other basic commie trigger group. I would say the pull is less than a stock AR-15 trigger, about 3.5-4lbs or pull and is VERY smoothe...no grit at all. The reset is very short with virtually no overtravel and the pre-travel is also greatly improved. Just like their AR triggers, this is one of the best upgrades you can make to your AK... |

Installed mine too a little awhile ago and have been messing with it. Thanks ALG for the package! Awesome box of goodies!
My initial thoughts / pics / video comparing to my polished and tweaked G2 trigger pull http://www.akfiles.com/forums/showthread.php?t=225786 |
| I got mine today, I have to say that is one scary trigger. You hardly feel when it breaks, no over travel, pre travel is very short and the bow shape feels nice. Very happy with the trigger. The only fitting that needs to be done is the pin for the safety. I used a screw driver and an adjustable wrench. Took it to just there and safety works nice and tight. Even though is a single hook it has double the contact area than any other ak trigger and the release feels smooth like it has been polished. The only thing I would polish would be the reset. On mine, I get a little sand paper feel, nothing a good stome wont take care of but also nothing that would bother me if I left alone. I can't wait to head out to the range on Sunday and give it a go. |
