Great trigger for little cash.
I've used 3 of these sets with reduced power spring kits. I've tried using standard springs, and although they work, the end result is horrible. The spring kits I've used were all light springs including disconnector spring. I smoothed the disconnector spring retaining hole on the trigger to make it move easily like it should. Additionally, I lubed every inch of the components with clp and wiped the parts until dry as a bone. No alterations made to sear engagement surfaces. One of the disconnectors had a pin hole which was just a hair too tight, easy fix. All 3 sets have been installed, and I am pretty sure the performance differences amongst the 3 are due to receiver tolerances. This set is just a step up from regular mil spec.
Love it
Great item for the price. Out of the bag smooth pull clean brake, I can imagine how much better its going to be after polishing. I'm very impressed, compared to groups that cost four times as much this one out performs my leaps and bounds. I plan on buying more for backup parts.
Great Deal For the Money
I purchased 3 of these trigger groups on 2 different orders at 2 different times. I installed them on 3 different Lowers, an Anderson, DPMS and a Palmetto, all of then fit perfect, all of them were smooth with a crisp trigger break. I was so impressed that I referred them to my Brother and he purchased a set for his rifle with the same good results. You can pay more and get less, just saying!
Solid design
This trigger hardware is well made and solid. I suggest buying a set of 3.5lbs springs to ease the creep. Might also do good to get a travel adjuster grip screw if you want a quick break. Its a little better than stock or straight Mil-spec equipment but not enough to pay extra for....
Excellent Milspec Trigger Group
An overall excellent milspec style of trigger group. The pull is heavy, but smooth and surprisingly crisp. Very minimal creep and a normal amount of over travel. The only problem I had was the disconnector not fitting well. With the trigger pulled, the disconnector did not have enough travel to catch the hammer without the trigger moving forward. Some careful time on a belt sander fixed the disconnector very easily. If you need a milspec trigger group, do not hesitate to get this one! Remember to pick up a trigger spring, hammer spring, and disconnector spring as this kit does not include them.
Just OK
The trigger is OK but nothing special. Lots of creep and a heavy almost 7 pound break. Pay the extra money and buy a better trigger in my opinion. But it does work if you want to go cheap.
Disconnectors
Ordered two of them and on both the disconnectors wouldn't engage while the triggers were only very lightly depressed. A "firm" trigger hold back back and they would not engage unless I let some pressure off the trigger..A little time with a file and they now engage with the trigger depressed firmly, although it takes quite a bit of force on the hammer to get it to engage..I think this might be an issue with mild loads not forcing the BCG back with enough force to overcome this resistance from the disconnector. Other than that, they function about as well as any MIl Spec trigger.
Not as Good As CMMG FCG
I needed a FCG for a retro AR build. I ordered and installed this one. The trigger pull is heavy and there is noticeable creep. It is not as good a FCG as the CMMG trigger I recently installed in another rifle. If you are looking for a reasonably good milspec FCG for an AR, this is probably not the one you are looking for.
Disconnector doesn't fit
I bought this to go with my JP trigger springs, It looked good but The trigger Disconnector does not fit inside the trigger. I am not sure which piece is defective. I am the 3rd of three reviews that have this problem. I would steer clear. Props to Brownells for their excellent return policy.
