So does anyone has knowledge of our SOCOM guys having double-stage triggers on their M4s? I was browsing through Giselle's website and for many of the triggers they mentioned .. "finely-tuned semi-automatic-only version of our full-auto, two stage combat trigger presently used in the U.S. Special Operations Community".
How commonplace are these two stage triggers are within the SOCOM ranks?
This is exactly what I was going to write... I only have two, one in an SBR, but there are more in my future.
Rob, what I notice about the reset is that it's shorter than the GI, without the noticeable trigger movement (or pop) as the disconnector releases, allowing me to get better control- I've never missed a reset because it doesn't have to move as much as a GI. The only other 2-stage I've used is a RRA, it also doesn't have to move as much for reset, although the trigger itself is "mushier" than the ssa. Maybe some of the other 2-stage triggers might cause the missed reset you mention, but of the OP goes with an SSA it shouldn't be a problem.

I use a Geissele SSA on my SBR as well.

There is so much more technique to nail down before one needs a two stage trigger that it seems a little silly to me to be putting it on a rifle.
My primary observation is that the M40A1 my uncle lent me had a single stage trigger, at about 4 lbs, IIRC.
The standard GI trigger is better than I am, though cleaning up the edges (port and Starboard, NOT the engagement points) and running about 500 rounds through it does do wonders.
