One major standout I like about them is that it's machined from a piece of billet aluminum and every single edge on the piece is broken- a very nice touch. Then there's the superior finish and blah, blah, blah...? fan boy.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re rough, loads of flashing that was never filed off. Pitting everywhere from impurities in the aluminum. I have ave never seen any issues with a polymer trigger frame. They’re a little lighter than the aluminum model too. I personally carry polymer framed guns on duty and for concealed carry. They’re striker fired evil too! Fewer problems with them in my experience than hammer guns. Fewer wait a minutes. Having said that, the A&S frames are the best. I don’t use the ramp either. I just want a smooth functioning trigger platform that can be plated. Do you have the A&S NP3+ plated? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangerDanger Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Yep! Both of my M4’s are plated along with all their sub components. Everything is butter smooth and required zero fitting unlike my adventures in nickel boron. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't seen any in A&S ones... but then again I've only handled three. Two for M4s and one for an M3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The parts assembled but did not function. As a quick fix I used lapping compound and worked the two parts by hand until the fit was nice and smooth. I have some concern that the fit is still too tight for dirty combat conditions and I plan to widen the channel on the mill next time I have it apart. and before any re-coating for color. Rasyad Did you have Briley assemble your trigger group with the A&S trigger guard and they sent it back to you nonfunctional? or did you assemble it yourself?

Rasyad Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 This was a long time ago and happened with the first generation A&S trigger guard. I did the assembly. I later put the Trigger Guard on my Bridgeport mill to add something like 0.020" clearance to the channel for perfect function. I later sold that gen 1 trigger guard cheap (with full disclosure) as I wanted a newer, second generation A&S trigger guard that was factory coated internally with the deeper black color. The second generation trigger guard was dimensionally perfect. Nowadays one can buy the A&S trigger guard and Briley trigger as a package from Briley. Be Well, Rasyad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
