Anybody used/using one of the these? I’m curious how it stacks to the usual suspects from Geissele, Larue, and Centurion.

They're pretty good. We've not ran them on the trigger weight scale, but I run 2 take outs from Pappabear in my guns. He just runs Geisseles across the board.

I'd be fine with them in all my guns.

I like them. They aren’t as light as other offerings, but my examples are better on crispness than the few geisseles I’ve tried. Overall I much prefer the LaRue MBT to anything.

In my opinion, these are great triggers to be coming with a gun in stock configuration. No, they are not G-SSA triggers but they don't cost you $225 either.

I like them. Ive compared it aide by side with Gs (ssa?) And prefer the LMT 2 stage. Great deal if bought as a complete lower in the past.

Afternote: I'm not saying there are lighter than the single stage triggers, just that I prefer them and shoot them well. Most experience is with grendel carbine with SS barrel, was a pretty accurate package for a carbine.

Good triggers, and for the price they are great triggers.

Heavier than I prefer. Bought a retail sample to try and never got it into a lower, would love to rehome it.

Does anyone know if they use full power springs (like Geiselle?) Want to use one for a 7.62 x 39 build.

I may be interested.

I personally think the Larue MBT 2s triggers are the best aftermarket trigger under $150 hands down (especially considering they are only $87).

I have Geissele SSA-E triggers in almost all my guns, and i can honestly say that the Larue MBT-2s comes close to the performance of Geissele triggers, but 2-3 times cheaper. I've used CMC, Trigger Tech, Timney, Geissele, and a whole bunch of other brands of triggers, and in my opinion, the Larure MBT triggers are the best bang for the buck by far.

This was the other option I was considering as well. Same question though, do they use full power springs? Failing both of these two options Ill suck it up and put a Geissele G2S on this build. I have one in another AR and for what I use it for, it's perfect. But wouldn't mind saving some coin.....

Any intel about pull weight on the lmt?

The Larue MBT 2s comes with 2 different springs. Out of the box it's set with a 4.5 lb spring, but they also include a "heavy" spring, that increases the pull weight to 6lbs. I've only ever used the 4.5lb spring, but my buddy's trigger weight pull showed it broke right at about 4lbs, and i've heard the heavy spring breaks around 5lbs.

In my personal opinion, I don't think the Geissele SSA-E is worth double or triple the price of the Larue MBT -2s. I love my SSA-Es, but i can't honestly say there is much of a noticeable difference between the MBT and SSA-E. I would save the money and get the MBT-2s.

Apologies for the necro.

Anyone have any thoughts on how the feel of this trigger compares to the Larue MBT w/ heavy spring or the Centurion Arms AST?

FWIW, I've compared it to the Geissele SSA and found it to be basically on par in overall quality, though the pull characteristics are a bit different. Had no real desire to get a Geissele afterwards, but I haven't tried either of those two above.

Agree. Even at the new price, just not as great, but still best deal

I didn't pay $225, but ve seen them priced at $225. I've bought mine on sale sub $200, if my memory serves me the low of $165, high of $180, son.

I prefer the lighter spring in the MBT personally. I haven't used the Centurion AST yet, but everyone seems to really like them. There is another thread going on about it, and apparently the Centurion AST may be a better trigger than the LMT, and still under $100. The AST may be the new go-to for a sub $100 trigger. I might pick one up and see how it compares to the Geissele and MBT etc.
