| Does the 6920 come with a 2-stage trigger from factory? |
No, is correct. But YD... do you recommend any work to your trigger groups, do any upgrades, or accept factory trigger set-ups for what they are? Just curious, as you have one of the better collections/experience to draw from |
I dunno, I've never considered the AR platform as a precision rifle therefore the stock Colt trigger group seems more than adequate to me. I think of them as more of a battle rifle type, no time for precision, get a sniper rifle for that. upgrades? I'd like to try the SAW reliability package but really dont want to ship them a rifle and have them ship it back, I think next time I buy a rifle from them I'll have them set it up before delivery. I'm dying to see what that's all about |

I hear some of the pins diameters on Colts are larger than most other companies. Does this affect what brand trigger I may want to change to in the future? These are kind of noob questions, but its going to be my first AR. I can proudly say its going to be a Colt. I bought it 11/2/05 and I'm still waiting for it. Anyone hear anything about what or why it may be taking so long to get them distributed? Other than the gov't contract? |
True. The FCG (hammer and trigger) pins in current Colt rifles are .170, being referred to as "large pin." This affected the hammer, disconnector, trigger, and lower receiver. You will have to take this into consideration when installing an aftermarket FCG, be it a drop in like Chip McCormack, or just replacing parts of your stock FCG. Many of the precision or 2-stage triggers are available in the larger size, but you will have to make sure of what you are getting prior to ordering. If you have one picked out, it may be a good idea to post on the board, and see if anyone had had trouble with installation or function. |
+1, I have replaced the springs with the JP yellow reduced power spring kit and I'm happy with this change. |
