    Which Geissele trigger?

    I have this 14.7” 6920 that I need a trigger for. I ordered a LaRue MBT but I’ve been waiting over a month and hasn’t shipped yet.

    So I want to a Geissele for this gun. I was thinking SSA-E but this new SSP is pretty tempting. What’s better for a general purpose rifle like this? I know some will say the SSA-E is too like but the break sounds a lot nicer than an SSA.

    I always like the SD-C for general purpose.

    If you're concerned about Geissele's description of the SSA's break as carrot-like, you shouldn't be. If it's like a carrot, then the carrot is very skinny...and frozen, at least that's the way mine is. I'm personally unwilling to go any lighter than the SSA, no matter how perfect the break happens to be.

    The SSA is nearly identical to the MBT, and blindfolded, it's doubtful you could tell them apart in actual use.

    For general purpose use, the SSP is among the last Geisseles I'd choose.

    Is that the SSA with a flat bow?

    I run SSA on almost all my AR's. I have one E that is on a SPR, and I occasionally misfire when on target. My muscle memory is so conditioned is pretty interesting. And who really needs less than a 2.5lb break, which is essentially the second half of the SSA.

    My preference is the SSA on scoped rifles (target/hunting/DMR) and the ALG ACT on red dot/irons (home defense/etc)

    I have the SSA-E and the second stage is Very light, I would recommend the SSA for general use.

    Ditto on the ALG ACT. Made by Gisselle it's basically milspec and 5 lb break, no grit pull, crisp clean glass break. I sold my SSA to a buddy and put these in my ar15 and ar10 with $$ left for more ammo. I don't do competitive shooting, but do hunt with these.

    The SSA/G2S are very nice triggers and I would not hesitate to go that route. I have an SDE for a precision rig and it's great in that role but I think the SSA is a better do-all trigger. I have two SSP's and and had an SD3G as well and greatly prefer the SSP so I sold the SD3G. The SSP isn't exactly a bolt gun trigger, but instead feels like a very very light BCM PNT with a shorter, smoother pull and a distinct but not obnoxious reset. I really like it and will be buying more. I will say that I wish there was a 4.5# spring for the SSP. It's not an issue for me, but I can see how some could perceive the pull weight as too light.
