308 AR DROP-IN TRIGGER MODULE SOLID SHOE Reviews & Ratings

Self-contained module is ready to install in your small-pin AR and deliver an exceptionally smooth, crisp, creep-free single-stage trigger pull that feels more like a traditional bolt action than a combat rifle trigger. 100% drop-in—no gunsmithing, fitting, or adjusting required. All components are captive in the lightweight, aluminum alloy housing. Hammer is wire-EDM machined from S7 tool steel that combines hardness to resist wear with superior impact resistance to withstand heavy use without chipping or breaking. Other components are EDM cut from A2 tool steel, then heat treated to Rc 56-60 for long service life. Precision-ground engagement surfaces ensure superb reliability and a crisp, clean hammer release. Installs using your rifle’s original hammer/trigger pins; proprietary design eliminates pin walkout. AR-.308 model has a factory-set 4 lb. pull weight, a solid shoe, and more hammer mass to ensure positive ignition of harder .308/7.62mm primers.

SPECS: Hammer – S7 tool steel, natural color, Teflon-Nickel coated. Trigger/Internal Components - Hardened A2 tool steel, black oxide finish. Housing – 6061 T6 aluminum, gold anodized finish. Fits rifles with .154" diameter hammer/trigger pin holes. Will not fit Colt-manufactured AR-15s with sear block. AR-.308 – non-adjustable 4 lb. pull weight. Fits AR-style .308 rifles that accept small-pin AR-15 trigger components.

Nothing to Write Home About

This trigger is difficult to install. There are two tiny allen head lock screws that must be manuvered into place next to the hammer springs. Very hard to do without three hands. Performance is only so-so after installation. No take up or slop but it seems to be set at about 8 pounds. Better than the stock trigger to be sure but not worth the money. Timney usually does a better job on their triggers.
