You guys do realize that this is a memorial item designed to provide money for the family that an industry guy left behind when he passed, right?
Quit acting like childish assholes. Show a tiny amount of respect. His kids now have to grow up without a dad. Sometimes this HTF sickens me. |

i guess like everything else in the EE, fellow shooters raping each other. i just wanna kick some of these greedy asses in the gooch. Seriously, shut up. Rape requires force. Nobody is forcing you to by anything. Well yeah, rape was a bad choice of words, but still- me and my buddies can't go shooting without buying ammo that everyone hoarding and trying sell me .223 tula ammo at $1.50 a rd. of course I didn't buy it, but that don't mean I can't come here to complain. Didn't know anyone here named the gooch, thats pretty funny. |

Show a tiny amount of respect. His kids now have to grow up without a dad. Sometimes this HTF sickens me. Thought I was kinda helping by wanting to buy one and help the family out, but if I buy it from a guy in the EE, I'm sure he will sell it for a profit, and I'm pretty sure hes not going to give that profit back to the family is what I was saying. I think geiselle would have been better off auctioning these triggers to help the family instead of just selling them for $100 each. |
| I agree that its a bad idea to do a very limited production. I'd rather see an indefinite amount of them available with a portion of the proceeds going to the family. That way anybody can get one, its not too cumbersome for geiselle, and they don't end up as auctioned off collectibles rather than tools. |

The trigger looks nice and I'm glad it's going to a good cause. I'm sure Geissele had a reason for only doing 100 of them as part of the tribute. Unfortunately I'm sure some will end up for sale at a profit. Hopefully those that choose to do that will donate the difference to the Noveske's. Saw a comment on the Noveske Shooting Teams fb about taking the pic of John (that was engraved on the hammer), nice personal touch. RIP.
I'm curious, since this trigger is a select fire model, can it still be put in a regular AR as long as there are no other M16 parts? I'm not familiar with that portion of the law, I just stay away from M16 parts altogether. The Geissele Super Select-Fire (SSF®) Trigger is a select-fire combat trigger that Geissele Automatics developed for the U.S. Special Operations Community. In semi-automatic mode, the SSF performs like a match-grade two-stage trigger that allows precise and accurate trigger control. In fully-automatic mode, the SSF performs like a single-stage trigger with a smooth, continuous trigger pull and abrupt hammer release.
All NFA rules apply to the sale of the SSF trigger. |

Didn't know anyone here named the gooch, thats pretty funny. I'm curious, do you hold the same philosophy about how much ammo someone 'needs' as you do about someone only 'needing 5- 30 rnd mags'? Do you think there is a set amount of ammo someone 'need's too? Those that have "hoarded ammo" pre-planned for price fluctuations are not worried about being able to get ammo. They can go shoot anytime or sign up for a class requiring 600 rnds in one day and not worry about replenishing their supply. I've never understood the guys that buy ammo on the way to the range to shoot. Usually they end up overpaying since they need it right then. I say this not to be an a$$, but to provide just another reason someone 'needs' a certain amount of ammo/mags. Next time, don't be caught off guard, pre-plan. Then you can just go to your closet for ammo

FYI, word on the street is that they are $250, which is a deal in and of itself as SSF's sell for $320.ALL proceeds will benefit the family. Proceeds, not profits. Bill is essentially donating the triggers out of his own pocket. I'm sure that is too much money for you to donate to the family of a fallen industry partner though.

I guess it must be a slow day on the airsoft forums or something and these jackwagons feel the need to migrate over here. This one hits pretty close to home as the exact same thing happened to my brother in law 6 years ago. Left my sister and 2 little kids who have to grow up without their daddy. Word on the Insurance. Everyone, especially those with children, should have life insurance, and plenty of it. |

See I started this just saint I want a trigger to help and I had no ammo, then u went into attack mode, my dad pasted away when I to was six, he left behind a wife and 7 kids.
Nobody gave my family $25,000. so you know what, if your not here to help us buy a trigger, then don't post in this thread. Take your tuff guy bullshit somewhere else. You don't know jack about everyone here, you may know some one who went through it, but you didn't, I did. Anyway, I still want a trigger if anyone can get me one. |

Then I met with an investment and insurance guy from Nothwestern Mutual that asked some simple questions and ran some numbers to figure out how much I should get. He also sold insurance, so I am pretty sure I got more insurance than I need, but that's ok. The questions were pretty basic: How much do you make? $XXX Do you want to pay off the house (and all other debts)? Yes Do you want your wife to work while the kids are in school (under 18)? No Do you want to pay for your kids college? Yes (FYI, the only way my kids are going to get a free ride though college is through scholarships or if I die before they go to college, because if I am alive, I have other plans for my money! :) Do you want your kids to have the option of going to private grade/high school school? Yes Then just add it all up and make some wild-ass guess about inflation and BAM, I got a number. And that was probably more personal info than I would normally put out on the internet. Oh well. |

Any of the internet sites you find on google will give you the prices based on some info you provide. Many insurance salesmen will try to talk you into investment type life insurance which is ALWAYS a ripoff regardless of your situation. They make massive commissions on it. I think I pay 450 or so for $1M in coverage. |

When your net worth starts getting above a couple million, then it appears that some life insurance policies can have some good tax benefits.
