M2_shootr Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Looking for a bit of feedback on the FFT 922 compliant trigger package for the M4. Anyone tried this set? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M4-Desert Camo Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 I have it on my M4, no issues .... StrangerDanger has installed many of these and probably is the best authority on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M2_shootr Posted January 9, 2014 Author Share Posted January 9, 2014 Thanks.........found a few comparisons with the hammers of the FFT vs Geissele. I am looking more for 922 compliance parts.....a good trigger upgrade is always a plus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangerDanger Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 The Geissele hammer shows less sign of deformation from use than the FFT hammer. Having said that, I have not experienced or know of anyone who has had an issue with the FFT hammer failing. The FFT trigger and disconnector are good 922® upgrades. You'll also get a nice reduced trigger pull from the upgrade. The only issue I've encountered with the Geissele hammer is the hammer is really difficult to cock when the safety is on and the hammer is lowered. The factory and FFT hammer do not experience this issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StrangerDanger Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Is it? I've never seen it written down anywhere. The safety fixes the trigger in position, so the hammer pivots back the disconnector is hit a little harder. I can't see it doing much or any damage when cycling by hand. This image shows the primary sear contact point between the hammers available. Visually, you can see the Geissele has the most contact area. I trust their surface hardening more than even the OEM.

During a Benelli armorer's course we were advised that doing so places additional stress on the trigger pin and the bushing that goes through the hammer that can cause unnecessary wear and in some cases has resulted in broken trigger pins or failure of the hammer/trigger interface. That's why I don't do it and advise others not to. But that's just me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
