    What is the allure of drop-in cassette triggers?

    I don't get it. Is it a simplicity thing for people that don't know how to install a separate trigger/hammer/disconnector? Is they some other advantage with them I am missing or is it just another way to skin a cat?

    People, myself included believe its probably tuned and tested and more likely to have a higher quality control versus typical LPK triggers, however, I am just fine with the milspec trigger and can install my pins just fine! Of course some believe its the pinnacle of a fully modded rifle and want one more specific part to name when pontificating at the range.

    You talking about the "self-contained" units like the Wilson or something like the Geissele? If it's the latter you must not own one!

    I belive he is talking about cassette style trigger packs

    As easy as it is to install a "normal" trigger group, i don't think they really qualify as "drop in"

    I've been 'exposed' to the idea that the trigger will still function even if the lower or pins fail, by people who adhere strictly to using Timney triggers in their ARs over G triggers.

    I find the idea dubious, poorly reasoned and disappointingly impractical.
    Nobody ever got shot climbing over the wall into East Berlin.

    Delivering the most precision possible, at the greatest distance possible, with the highest rate of fire possible.

    The best drop in trigger will always be better than the best non drop in trigger.

    That is correct, I clarified the OP.

    What again makes the Rise different from the G triggers? Dont take that as a smartass, I really dont understand the mechanics of it that well.

    So they have a convenient place for a popped primer to fall into and jam in place so it cannot get at other internal components in the rifle. And since most of the cassette style triggers I've seen are sealed, you can go buy another one to replace it.
