LaRue Tactical MBT-2S Trigger

[Cane55]

I have two MBT's. Larue says they pull at 4.5 pounds with the light spring, but it felt lighter, just like my SSA-E. So I pulled out my trigger gauge and tested both MBT's and they both pulled exactly and consistently at 3.5 pounds. To me it feels almost identical to the SSA-E except for the wider, flat trigger on the MBT. I got them on sale at Larue for $99 each. Well worth it imo. Excellent construction and quality, made from strong S7 tool steel.

To me the big difference in pull is the first stage. I do think over all the mbt is 4.5lbs. The ssa-e has a much lighter first stage. The mbt and ssa-e have what feels like a very similar second stage.

I think pulling through the heavier first stage of the mbt makes it second stage feel lighter.

I dry fired one at the range yesterday. My AR's have SSA triggers in them. I did not have one of my AR's at the range to compare at the same time.

First thing I noticed was the trigger shoe itself - wide and flat. Much different feel than what I am used to. The only thing I did not "like" was the edges of the trigger did not feel like they were smoothed over at all. It gave kind of a "sharp" feeling.

The first stage seemed really light compared to my SSA. It had a nice break. Reset felt weird, but I am not 100% a fan of the reset on my SSA.

All in all it was a good trigger. Owner said he paid $100. Well worth that price.

I was concerned with the edges too but at least when using the butt ugly but highly function A-Peg grip you don't even feel it. I have 4 of the triggers now. Very happy with them.

Robert, Don't feel bad I tried to start a new thread.

A couple guys said they like SSA better because they have a rolling break, what is meant by that? I run SSA in most of my guns, but never thought it to have a rollin break.

PB - update. So I sold my custom build 308. Not sure if you ever saw that or not. I picked up a 16” LMT MWS upper and paired it up with a Mega MATEN lower. I didn’t want to install the Timney I had in my custom 308 in the new battle rifle, so I picked up another MBT-2S. Was hesitant because I prefer single stage in my fighting guns - but man oh man is that the trigger for this battle rifle or is that the trigger. (it is THE trigger) It’s what I would call The Perfect Trigger for that LMT/Mega grog bowl of freaking awesomeness.

I have one and like it. Hard to beat considering they are $99 right now.

I have one in my BCM and really like it, great trigger at a very fair price. Plus, who doesn't like some Dillo Dust?

[Caeser25]

When they're on sale for $99, it's an impossible deal to beat. I myself like the flat face of the trigger.

Ordered one for $99. Still waiting for it to get back in stock but I’m in no rush. I’m looking forward to putting it in my SPR project.

This or a G2S seem to be a very popular value choice over a solid polished milspec (e.g. ALG ACT), but without spending SSA$$.
