M4Madness Posted April 18, 2011 Posted April 18, 2011 I just read an interview with Bill Geissele of Geissele Automatics that was released today, and he indicated that they are working on a new trigger for the Benelli M4. I wonder if they are the company CarrierComp is working with. I hope so, as I have a Geissele trigger in my LaRue Tactical OBR 7.62, and it is sweet! Their M16 triggers were safety certified by Crane Naval Surface Warfare Center, and all the 'Tier 1' SOF units use their triggers. Quote

socom1 Posted April 18, 2011 Posted April 18, 2011 You can read one on AR15.com , not sure if its the same . Quote
M4Madness Posted April 18, 2011 Author Posted April 18, 2011 AR15.com has a monthly newsletter that you can subscribe to. That's where I read it. Go to the following page, then subscribe to the newsletter at the lefthand side of the page: http://www.ar15.com Geissele is supplying the triggers for our AR15.com billet lower receivers, so the owner of AR15.com interviewed him. He was asked if they had plans to make triggers for other firearms and he stated that one for the Benelli M4 is in the works. Quote
M4Madness Posted April 19, 2011 Author Posted April 19, 2011 Bill Geissele told me that they are shooting for a summertime release of the M4 trigger. (I don't know if the pun was intended. LOL!) Quote
chromegsxr2002 Posted April 19, 2011 Posted April 19, 2011 I emailed Bill earlier and he did say "summertimeish". This is great news!!! Quote

After a little "horse-trading" (mag tubes for AR triggers) I pitched the idea, and he said we needed to talk. We have and he seems to have a firm grasp of what is needed (understatement). I left his name out of the updates to spare him any grief while he sorts out the details. I'm very excited to see what he produces, and am in line too. Quote
BM4robbins Posted April 19, 2011 Posted April 19, 2011 Is he making the trigger too, or just the hammer and disconnector? Quote
xamoel Posted April 19, 2011 Posted April 19, 2011 What will be the advantage of his trigger compared to the factory trigger? Quote
M4Madness Posted April 19, 2011 Author Posted April 19, 2011 What will be the advantage of his trigger compared to the factory trigger? In addition to a better functioning trigger (pull weight, crispness, etc.), it'll be US-made. That will give us the final parts needed to legally install a collapsible stock. Quote
Acolar Posted April 19, 2011 Posted April 19, 2011 This is great news. We have a timing estimate. How about a cost estimate? Quote
LeoAtrox Posted April 19, 2011 Posted April 19, 2011 This is great news. We have a timing estimate. How about a cost estimate? Priceless. I'm glad the news is out, and it wasn't leaked to the world before its time. Now we can get excited. Quote
Mr. Shotgun Posted April 19, 2011 Posted April 19, 2011 I didnt read the article that the OP is referring to but all in all, its good news! Quote
twowheelhooligan Posted April 20, 2011 Posted April 20, 2011 Here's the link. Actually a good read. There is *NOT* a lot about the BM4 trigger specifically, but it's still a good read! http://zmarter.com/guns-peaple/interview-with-bill-geissele-of-geissele-automatics.html Quote
Grizzman Posted April 20, 2011 Posted April 20, 2011 That is great news. It'll be nice to get my M4 to the point where it no longer has the worst trigger pull of all my rifles and shottys. Since I'm running a Mesa stock the compliance isn't necessary, but I may end up with a C-Stock some day. Grizz Quote
BigHat Posted April 20, 2011 Posted April 20, 2011 can we pre-order them now??? I'm just glad we can buy them directly whenever they're ready to sell them. This is excellent news. Quote
BM4robbins Posted April 20, 2011 Posted April 20, 2011 I could care less where it comes from, as long as the manufacturer stands behind it, and the distributor has it in stock. Quote
BigHat Posted April 20, 2011 Posted April 20, 2011 I could care less where it comes from, as long as the manufacturer stands behind it, and the distributor has it in stock. This guy make s bullet proof stuff. It's the last item you'll hang on or in your shotgun you need to worry about. If you want it ASAP, I suggest to email him and see if they're establishing a waiting list. I did. Just not quite sure if the market volume bears Midway, Brownell's etc stocking it, but he sells his products on his website so... Quote
BM4robbins Posted April 20, 2011 Posted April 20, 2011 http://geissele.com/faq.aspx Combined shipping is always a plus, in case the consumer is buying more than a trigger that day. Quote
BM4robbins Posted April 21, 2011 Posted April 21, 2011 Geissele drop shipped my last trigger order through a distributor, which actually arrived before the optics and ammo did. Saved shipping costs since the distributor's agreement with them covers it all in one shot. Quote
