ENHANCED TRIGGER GUARD FOR AR-15/M16

ENHANCED TRIGGER GUARD FOR AR-15/M16 Reviews & Ratings

Aluminum triggerguard replaces factory guard and gives full access to the trigger, even when you’re wearing gloves. Ends the complication of having to drop the triggerguard in cold weather environments in order to get to the trigger. Trigger guard gives you an oversized opening and is held in place with standard roll pins and set screws. Eliminates need for gap plug and works with most grips.

SPECS: Aluminum, matte black. Fits AR-15/M16 rifles. Includes roll pin and set screw.

Great addition for any AR style
Love this trigger guard, and require it on all my builds. Easy to install (with proper care taken to drift in roll pin) and very sturdy once in place. Perfect fit on my lowers (Mega Arms). Best part about it, there is no giant Magpul logo etched into the bottom like the polymer version.

Should be a Standard Item
It adds the perfect amount of extra room for gloves. It looks good and is durable. What more could you ask for?

Looks awesome
gives a custom look to my AR

Great for big hands
This is the easiest and one of the most beneficial changes I have made to my AR (a DPMS). A couple taps on a roll pin punch and a few turns on an allen key. Other reviews address fit issue but for a DPMS lower the fit is as good as can be, to fit any better the trigger guard would have to be part of the lower.

Go Ahead... you know you want to...
I'm not at all the sort of person who drinks the Kool Aid just for the looks of it... except with this one. Yes, I suppose the opening is larger for gloves, but I got this for no other reason than it fits the lines of an AR perfectly, and almost makes it a good looking gun. It's built like a rock, so durability isn't an issue. Be warned that you can forget about unhinging it for gloves in the wintertime if that's something your accustomed to with the standard trigger guard. Also, if you're building your lower from scratch, just buy this right away and install it, as knocking that old pin out sometimes isn't as easy as it should be-- best to install one guard one time. Also, MagPul has since come out with a less expensive "plastic" version that I'd consider going with now, both for price and weight savings, although it is nice to know that this thing won't ever break.

Enhanced Trigger Guard
Fit like a glove, no fitting required, and adds just enough room for gloves, without dropping far enough to interfier with other mods. Finish was a little lighter than the gun finish, but they can't match every gun out there. Def. a recomended product.
