truckcop Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Brownell's. Search AR Trigger. Take your pick. Anything from standard mil-spec parts kits to high-end drop-in modules. Personally, I've gone with several of the drop-ins: Timney, CMC, Wilson. I can't say one of those is better than the others. Satisfied with all of them. I've got more Wilsons (4) but that's just because. None of my AR's have what they came with, even the supposedly better two-stage "national match" versions.

HMLA-167 Warrior Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 (edited) I don't know what price range you are looking at but my favorite have been from Geissele. One of these may fit the bill: http://geissele.com/triggers.html?weapon_platform=36 Edited July 8, 2015 by HMLA-167 Warrior my spelling sucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heckler&kochp2000 Posted July 8, 2015 Author Share Posted July 8, 2015 In here looking for opinions on a trigger, I know I should be on maybe ar15.com basic or advanced is there really much difference ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
black_dog Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Geissele SSA. Two stage combat trigger, great feel, but not ultra light. http://geissele.com/super-semi-automatic-ssar-trigger.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HMLA-167 Warrior Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 In here looking for opinions on a trigger, I know I should be on maybe ar15.comNot necessarily. There may be more knowledge here than you realize basic or advanced is there really much difference ??? Much difference depends on the intended use. Are you trying to build a combat ready weapon, a 3 gun ready weapon, a match quality weapon, an accurate range toy, a backwoods plinker, a ranch coyote controller, etc.?

HMLA-167 Warrior Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Geissele SSA. Two stage combat trigger, great feel, but not ultra light. http://geissele.com/super-semi-automatic-ssar-trigger.html Ultra light often causes several surprise accidental discharges from recoil of the first shot. "Seriously I was only trying to shoot once, not 3 times." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
black_dog Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Ultra light often causes several surprise accidental discharges from recoil of the first shot. "Seriously I was only trying to shoot once, not 3 times." Agreed. I think the SSA is perfect because of the balance you get with the feel and the pull weight.

benelliwerkes Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 I have various Geissele's in all my AR type rifles and they are very nice. Bill Geissele explains his trigger variants here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heckler&kochp2000 Posted July 8, 2015 Author Share Posted July 8, 2015 Thanks ! I Knew i could count on you all ! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangerDanger Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 I've met with Bill Geissele a few times at SHOT. Great guy, better triggers. The SSA will fit the bill. I hear the new Larue triggers are supposed to go up against Geissele, but I haven't tried one yet personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heckler&kochp2000 Posted July 8, 2015 Author Share Posted July 8, 2015 (edited) Will the small parts roll pins springs kit for $50 work for all the small parts needed or does the SSA trigger comes with everything ?

benelliwerkes Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 The Geissele triggers come with a slave pin to assist re-installing the pins that were removed. Geissele also has a Trigger Fitting Pin available on their website (as well as Midway USA) that is worth having. Geissele Trigger Fitting Pin AR-15 LR-308 Trigger Fitting Pin - Tools I don't see that you have disclosed what type of AR you are building....small parts for AR15 ? AR10 ?

heckler&kochp2000 Posted July 8, 2015 Author Share Posted July 8, 2015 AR15 I think midway has a small parts kit for $59 does the SSA trigger all the small parts needed in building completely from scratch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
black_dog Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 AR15 I think midway has a small parts kit for $59 does the SSA trigger all the small parts needed in building completely from scratch. A lower parts kit will typically contain the pins/springs/parts you need for the bolt catch, trigger guard, pivot and takedown pins and grip. The SSA will include the hammer and trigger pins only. If you can post a link to the lower parts kit you are looking at I would gladly check to see if you will have everything you need. Here is a link to a CA compliant parts kit that includes everything but the trigger, trigger guard, and grip - three very commonly upgraded parts. This way you pick the parts you like up front and don't waste money on parts you don't need in a kit. https://www.cmmginc.com/shop/lower-parts-kit-ar15-gun-builders-kit-ca/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heckler&kochp2000 Posted July 9, 2015 Author Share Posted July 9, 2015 Nice! That's exactly what I need and wanted!!! Thanks Black Dog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
black_dog Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 (edited) Nice! That's exactly what I need and wanted!!! Thanks Black Dog Very happy to help! Are you planning to build your upper as well, or buy a complete one? Do you have a stock and buffer tube kit selected? If not, take a look at BCM, you can get everything in one kit. BCM is a great company, and the parts are all top notch. I would consider them for an upper as well if you are not building and don't have one in mind. Great selection, just have to catch the one you want in stock. If you don't have a stock in mind (they have other colors, I just linked black as its common): http://www.bravocompanyusa.com/BCM-GUNFIGHTER-s-Stock-Mod-0-KIT-Black-p/bcm-gfsk-mod-0-blk.htm If you have a stock in mind and just want all the other parts: http://www.bravocompanyusa.com/Stock-Hardware-Mounting-Kit-Mil-Spec-p/bcm-stock-hardware-kit.htm We will of course want pics when you get it all finished! Good luck with it - let me know if there is anything else I can help with. Edited July 9, 2015 by black_dog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heckler&kochp2000 Posted July 29, 2015 Author Share Posted July 29, 2015 Im looking also for a tool kit not overboard but a [h=2]AR15/M4 Armorer's kit with the tools to assemble my AR from one end to the other and everything between ? Any help is as always greatly appreciated .[/h] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
