looking to put a cmc 3.5# trigger in, will it fit?
thx bob |

The box will fit inside. The problem is the CMC doesn't have anything to capture the pins and relies on external clips to capture the pins. The extra width of the mag tactical lower will prevent the provided CMC pins from working. A regular style trigger group will work better. I would look at Geisselle, RRA, or Armalite. |

update, cmc knows there is a problem with the mag tactical, they have special pins for them. kns pins will work but the side plates will stick out. I don't see how you can use KNS pins (I run them on all of my AR's EXCEPT my Mag Tactical AR) KNS pins aren't long enough to protrude past the wider pin bosses on the Mag Tactical receivers, you wouldn't be able to connect the slotted side plate to the hammer pin. |

here is an email i got from cmc pres. about the longer pins.
don't know about the kns pins. Hi Bob --- Yes it will. You must purchase our Retention Pin set. You can buy that on our webstore. Jack R. Biegel, President CMC Triggers Corp 5597 Oak St. Fort Worth, TX. 76140 (817)563-6611 ph. (817)563-6658 fax (682)552-5795 cell |

Because it's a screw design you could probably get by with just grabbing some longer screws at the hardware store. I use a MAG lower but it has a mil spec style trigger system in it using the MAG supplied pins. I also have a CMC drop in on my SPR and when I did the test fit before the MAG was built, I had decided that longer screws would do the job. Not my first choice and maybe why I didn't do another drop in... |
| I have a Mag Tactical lower that I bought almost 2 years ago when they were first coming out. My Mil-Spec triggers didnt feel right in them so I have to switch for a drop-in. Chose CMC flat trigger and used the supplied longer pins from Mag Tactical. I have never had a problem with those pins sliding out on me. |

I stand by my original comments. Here is a photo showing the width of a Mag Tactical lower at the hammer Boss....

UNLESS they offer longer pins specifically for the Mag Tactical receiver, I think the individual from KNS doesn't have a clue.... As you can see from my photo of a KNS hammer pin it won't even protrude past the bosses on the Mag Tactical lower therefore it CAN'T engage the KNS side plates.

| Omg...this same issue held up my last build for almost two yrs. I lost interest after trying to find a geissele or other non boxed trigger for a good price. I have other guns to shoot. This build was supposed to be a LW 3gunner. Where is this on their webstore? |
