Recently i was ordering one of LaRue's LT204 C.A.N. scope mounts and on a flier decided to order a couple of MBT triggers. I'd heard how good they were and decided to give it a try. My previous experience with a 2 stage trigger was the RRA National Match 2-Stage. One was pretty and the other was kind of mushy. To be honest, it kind of turned me off to 2-stage triggers.
My last trigger purchases had been a couple Elftmann SE triggers and i kind of fell in love with a good single stage.
So my order was placed Jan 23rd and they hit my door yesterday Feb 12th. I'd heard of people waiting months for theirs since the price drop to $87, so i was pleasantly surprised to get them this quickly. Last night i pulled the ALG ACT out of my pistol lower that does double duty for a 11.5" 5.56 and 12.7" 6.5G upper. WOW! what a difference that makes. The ACT isn't a bad trigger, but the MBT is just whole other kind of good, especially at its current price. A little light predictable takeup and a very crisp break. It's also heads and shoulders better than the "pretty good" RRA trigger in my 20" 5.56 rifle.
The break is just as clean on the MBT as on the Eltmann triggers, which i like. Looks like i'm probably in for a weekend of musical triggers as i start moving triggers around and i can finally purge the last of the milspec triggers from my lowers. I think my 9mm lowers are going to end up with the RRA triggers and the lowers i use with my 5.56, 6.5G and 450 Bushmaster uppers are getting the MBT's and the Elftmanns.
Now i just need to figure what i'm going to do with my paper weight Franklin Gen 2 Binary.
