    Definitely agree. 1st thing I do is switch out the stock trigger for a Geissele SSA. Great all around trigger.

    Anyone who has worked around LE enough and shot with them knows that they mostly not big "gun people" and only few actually spend any additional time or money training outside of standard qualification.

    One need only look at the ratio of civilians to LE in training classes.

    Exactly.

    Now I'm not going to blow the doors off a master pistol shooter, but I have no problem shooting quals and stuff.

    A Geissele G2S will only set you back $165.

    I second this, along with IG's post about the QMS.

    The SSA and G2S are functionally-equivalent, but the former is priced a little bit higher.

    That is one of those purchases you will be happy about. I haven't regretted the purchase, or the advice received.

    Then, you can install a Geissele later, and learn what a good trigger feels like.

    One caveat; if your handgun of choice is a Glock, avoid the Geiselle. Trying to go back and forth from the super-nice Geiselle to the "crunch and mash" Glock will make you crazy.
    Personally I find the ssa and glock triggers have a lot more in common than the glock vs single stage. Both have a first stage and a 'wall '. Sure the glock is a lot more crunchy, but I think its a good combo.

    I've always ran stock triggers, but would like to try a higher end option to see what i'm missing.

    I've tried the stock GI trigger, the SSA and the SSA-E. At first, the GI trigger was very gritty and unpredictable but a proper application of grease improved it greatly. Still, I replaced it with an SSA and feel it was money well spent.

    The SSA-E has a lighter crisper pull than the SSA but I don't feel the SSA is any kind of handicap.

    I have not tried either version of the Geisselle GI triggers
