What do you guys recommend trigger wise for a 3 gun rifles?

Geissele makes a trigger called the...wait for it...Super 3 Gun.

I love my SD3G for my 3gun rifle. I have the flat bow version. Super fast and crisp.

SD3G's and Hiperfires seem to be the most popular.

If you want the feel of the Geissele Super 3 Gun without all the price, look at the Brownells B-GRF.  It's a special edition from Geissele just for Brownells that has the feel of the S3G trigger with the cost savings techniques of the G2S.  Sometimes they go on sale or you can use a coupon to get them for $150 to $175 delivered.

I really like my Hiperfire 24 3G. It is a single stage but feels great. 2.5-3lbs pull and the reset is almost non existence imo. Hiperfire triggers are the new kid on the block and they are some serious competition for Geisselle imo. The hiperfire 24 3G runs normally a little cheaper but if you really want a Geisselle Primary arms has the super 3 gun on sale right now.

Here is the B-GRF, with the current 5% off coupon M5F it would be $182.84 delivered.

The Hipertouch 24 would be $202.55 delivered with the same coupon.

The Geissele Super Dynamic 3 Gun is on sale for $195 + shipping at Primary Arms.
http://www.primaryarms.com/geissele-super-dynamic-trigger-3-gun-version-small-pin-154-gatsd-3g This will feel exactly the same as the B-GRF but has a flat trigger face.

The Gold is a great trigger.  If Jerry Miculek is running it it has to be a great trigger.  Personally, I'm not a fan of a two stage trigger for 3 gun.  I have 2 AR Gold triggers, but have moved them to hunting AR's.  I really like the Hiperfire 3 Gun triggers.  I have one with a standard looking trigger and one with the flat trigger.  I like that I can run any ammo through it and it will go bang--great design.  They are awesome triggers!

that was great!


i dont shoot 3 guns games but i do love the S3G trigger for nearly all my rifles. once you get use to the easier release you dont notice the lighter pull.  double taps are so much more on target and fast, its like your brain is connected to the primer.

lots of people will tell you the S3G trigger is a liability for self defense but i dont see how, your finger should not be on the trigger if you arent shooting anyway.

do people commonly use 2 stage triggers for anything other than scoped precision shooting?

i've had timney AR15 triggers wack-out when the set screws move. won't go back there.

I use two stages for most my general purpose guns.  They can be shot quickly or you can take your time for accuracy.  It wouldn't be my first stop for a dedicated three gun rig but they work great for hunting, target shooting and home defense.

I've used the Gesiele SD3-G and it's sweet, I have most of my 3gun time with a geissele SSA-E. I won two CMC triggers in a match so I ran my last match with a cmc and for short bays the cmc single stage was great. None of the shots were over 75 yards so I can't say how the cmc was for distance/precision shots.

I have two triggers I like a lot with 3 gun.  One, is a Timney single-stage trigger and the other is a Wilson Combat TTU-3g.  Both are fast and great!

AR Gold is simply the best trigger out there. I like geissele but the AR gold is awesome. I have the flat face one

Is there a controlability difference between the S3G and SD3G or are they about the same?

I got the S3G since I just couldn't warm up to the flat trigger. However, one thing I noticed is that I needed to run a fatter grip (Bravo Gunfighter w/ adjustable backstrap) to get a comfortable trigger pull. It has a damn short reset, thats for certain. A SD3G might have been a better way to go.

I love my geissele 's for 2 stage but I am not a true fan boy like many out there. I tried a sd3g and ended up with a hiperfire 24c in my competition rifle. The 24c was a better competition trigger imo. Felt better, lighter pull, quicker splits.

I have a Hiperfire 24 3G and it is a great trigger. 2.5lb, zero travel, clean beak, and great reset.

I'd go compete in a match and see if others will let you finger their triggers or let you shoot them.  Most people are super accommodating and nice at those matches.

I prefer single stage for my gun games.  My splits are just faster with them.
But at the end of the day it's still will be user preference

Wasn't impressed with mine that came with the rra gun I bought.
They also have a rep of shitting out after awhile.  Much better triggers out in the market to even consider the rra nm trigger.

Only problem is that it wasn't compatible with my JP ambi safety. I had to throw a standard milspec in. Not sure what safety selectors it will work with but the JP wasn't one of them

Flat triggers dont do it for me, I use a CMC 3.5lb curved.  I have been very happy with it.

Triggers are highly subjective.

I had a SD3G and absolutely hated it.  It was nothing but a long rolling creep then falling off a shelf.  No break at all.  By design.  Some people love that, not for me.  I shot 3gun for years with a two stage SSA-E, and did well with it.

I currently have an Elftmann that I am playing with.  Still not 100% sure, but I like the break for the hoser stuff.  I am just so used to a nice 2-stage when you have to take those 300-500yd shots.
