Hi,
I'm doing my first build and I'm going with a piston upper, anyway I'm thinking on putting a drop in trigger like the Timmey or the Chip McCornick on the lower, the question is: What should I get?, I'm going with the drop in/ 1 piece so is easier to install without making a mistake.. also is going to be an M-4 type fighting zombies (LOL) machine so should I get a 2 stage or a 1 stage? what is the difference?? Please bear with me I'm new to building, I had have several ARs but always got them as complete units. Thanks. |

The Wilson unit looks great, but... what about the 4lb pull??have you guys used on a class or on a tactical/combat scenario?? just wondering.... How about using a .mil issue Colt trigger group in an M4 in a non-class/actual combat scenario? Does that count for anything? Fancy triggers are nice, but not necessary. That said, I am putting Giesseles in the rifles I'm building for my sons...I'm hoping they don't see combat any time soon. |
| I'm really liking my Spikes Tactical Battle Trigger. The pull weight is about the same as a stock trigger but because it's NiB plated it's extremely smooth. Waaaaay better then a stock trigger. |

I'm really looking for a 1 pice trigger like the wilson, since is my first build I want it simple, and I have never install a trigger before so I don't know how, etc.. If you check This Thread you'll find instructions w/ pics on how to install. Specifically step 5 and 6. It's very simple but if you're looking for a 1 piece trigger thats cool too. ETA: And here's an awesome how-to video. Specifically at 5:46 -> |

i have the chip McCormick and love it. great trigger, even though it is a little heavy. but then again i prefer 1 pound trigger pulls. a 2 stage trigger has a long first stage "creep" in my book, then when the short second stage hits it drops the hammer. the single stage trigger only has a short first stage then the hammer falls. |

I have to JPs and love them. Prefer single stage triggers for anything I'm not pretty much dedicated to shooting at paper, and I prefer to keep a similar feeling trigger across the different rifles.
That said, I also have a couple of Bill Springfield worked milspec triggers. For $35, it is the best bang for the buck and, as an added bonus, keeps things stock so that you can, if necessary, replace components. Just a thought for you. |
