I just wanted to update. I have gone over to the LT triggers. My groups with it dropped to 1.0X-1.3MOA from my DDM4. That's a .gov profile CHF chrome-lined barrel shooting 75gr GDSP, 10 round groups, no fliers thrown out.

I picked up the LaRue MBT for $125 a while back and have about 1,500 rounds downrange with it. Dropped right in, all I did was hit the leading edge of the trigger bow with a very fine stone to ease the edge. Compared to the stock mil-spec trigger I had in before and in my wifes gun it's like night and day. Best $125 I've spent.
I replaced a G-SSA in my 7.62 OBR with the MBT when it was on sale for Black Friday. I feel it is just as good as an the SAA-E that I also have. I don't think it's better, different yes but not better. Also, not worse at all.
This past weekend I tried to "Outshoot The Shootist" (La Rue Challange to get a getter 3rd group than the tester) and was able to do it several times including a best of a .375MOA group. I know 3rd isn't a real group, but that's what the challange is.
Anyway, for a price that is half that of an SSA-E I think it's a contender for sure.
I am part of that power which eternally wills evil, and eternally works good.
I've had my MBT-2S for about 6 months now. It's in my SPR, but I would run it in any AR for that matter. I can't compare to the SSA or SSA-E, the only other 2 stages I use are KAC, and once broken in they are also pretty good triggers. That said I'd chose an MBT any day alone. I took the lower price route and waited no more than two weeks before it was dropped at my door. I live about 30 miles from them, but that doesn't affect their production schedule, just that when they drop it in the mail, I get it the next day.
For sure it's a really nice trigger. Breaks real clean, reset is reasonable. I'd buy one if I had another build in progress. Which reminds me....

I bought one a few months back for the "don't mind waiting" price. I have several Geissele triggers (which I consider to be the standard) and I'm very satisfied with the Larue overall. Especially for the price I paid for it.
To echo the others in this thread - I'm really impressed with the MBT-2S. I have an SSA in my 6920, and an SSA-E in my Recce style build, and the LaRue has a crisper break than either. Honestly, my SSA-E was disappointing initially, but has improved with use. But I think the MBT will be better for range work. I have installed one in an SBR lower that I just received the stamp on, so dry fire only so far but seems to be a can't miss option imho.

Like Larue or not, these guys usually make solid gear. I saw an ad where he was selling his MBT for $99.00
Anybody run these triggers ? Thoughts ?

I have a MBT2S in my 6920 and it really surprised me how good it is. I recently got a SSA-E for my BCM which is so light all you to do is breath on the second stage to launch a round. Great bench trigger but the LaRue in my opinion is better suited for personal defense. I wanted to get the SSA for the colt but the $125 standard price on the LaRue was too good to pass up. I have been more than pleased with the MBT2S and with the recent $99 deal it is too good to pass up. I will eventually get a SSA just to test against the MBT2S.

I have a LaRue MBT-2S and I find it to be an outstanding trigger. I hate to use all the trigger buzzwords, but it does break super clean. First stage is like running your finger through water. Super light and a very smooth 2nd stage, no grit at all. Reset is good, and it's like that all day every day. It's definitely a better 2 stage Than my KAC, even after break in. When I bought mine from LaRue I was patient and two weeks to the order date it was on my front porch.
I have one in my SPR and it works well there, I wouldn't swap it out for anything I can think of. Also I wouldn't hesitate to run the MBT in my Recce or even my SBR's.
