In my experience, most USGI triggers have an ~8lb pull, unless they've been jacked up by a DIY'er. That aside, the SSA is a two-stage 4.5lb trigger, with a 2.5lb first stage and 2lb second stage.

I thought a minute before throwing my two cents in on this one and remembered a few things about triggers on firearms.
I recalled a certain person who installed a competition style trigger on a Glock service pistol. Long story short it didn't end well and new policy was put into place.
But then I reme,bered all this training I'd been sent to that talked about high stress situations and it's ability to affect the way you squeeze (or jerk) a trigger.
Think about a shoot / don't shoot situations. You put your finger on the trigger and the situation changes quickly but the trigger is so responsive that BAM! you made a mistake. That's real talk and its preached a lot.
I think that might be one of the main reasons you don't see a lot of single stage three pound triggers on AR15 service rifles.
That being siad the unit you have is a great trigger and if you're looking ot sell it let me know :sarcastic:
