    What triggers are you guys running in your Grendels?

    I currently have a RRA 3.5lb trigger and I'm considering upgrading. I am looking for a general consensus on what is good and what is great.

    I'm throwing around the idea of going with the Timney 3lb match trigger but really want the Geiselle HSNM trigger (I missed their BF sale )

                  I have Mil Spec (7ish #), RRA NM 2 stage (6#), Timney (3#), and Geissele SSAE (3.5#). My favorite is now the SSAE for its crispness and repeatability. I list the four in the order I bought and worst to best, in terms of preference and performance.

                  Each has a totally different feel, and each was considered to be an improvement over its predecessor. Right now, if funding permitted, I'd go with all Geisseles.
                  If it's true that we are here to help others, then what exactly are the others here for?

                    I'm partial to the Geisseles. The Tricon, S3G, SSA and the SSA-E for pure target work.

                      Geissele SSA, Trigger Job with Bobbed Hammer, JP, Trigger Job with JP Springs, Trigger Job with JP AR10 Hammer Spring, New Aero LPK, RRA 2-Stage










                      If I had to pick one, it would be the Geissele SSA. I've never had a Failure To Fire with the Geissele that I can recall. I've had light strikes with the reduced power hammer springs, especially with a full-size hammer.

                      The 3 on the left are 6.5 Grendel. 4 on the right are 5.56 NATO or .223 Wylde.

                          I have CMC triggers in my AR's and I really like them. I have herad good things about the Alexander Arms trigger but have never used one. Geissle's are nice but I couldn't feel a difference between them and the CMC which is 60 bucks less.

                            My 24" Overwatch went on the lower from my Sabre Match in .204 Ruger that I sold the upper to finance the Grendel upper. It came with a Timney and I haven't felt the need to change it. I built a Spike's Billet with a CMC Flat to go with my AA 20" upper. I like them both equally. I prefer the CMC Flat for quick off hand shots.

                              Wilson Combat single state three gun and Rock River Arms two stage match. The former replaced one of their early two stage triggers that started malfunctioning after about 800 rounds (doubles/tripples/etc). In my opinion my Wilson is suitable for shooting prone or from a bench but is way too light for a gun used while moving on a range or in the field. My Rock River fills that role nicely and is really a bargain and a good place to start if you don't have a lot of range time with an AR. I have shot several ARs with Geissele triggers and when I buy another high end trigger it will most likely be their SSAE model.
