    Real world pull weight of LaRue Tactical MBT-2S Trigger?

    Title says it all. I've traditionally gone with the Geissele SSA-E for precision roles, but I'm considering the LaRue trigger as an alternative. I figure if it's too heavy I can throw it in a non-precision build.

    If you have a LaRue Tactical MBT-2S Trigger, what does your average pull weight come in at?

    Mine are very close to 4 pounds of complete pull weight. None of them, when new, were 4.5 pounds or more.

    The second stage on mine breaks right at 2 1/4 pounds. I feel it is comparable to my Geissele SSA-E in no small part due to the flat trigger shoe. This is an average of five pulls on a Timney scale.

    I’m curious if anyone has this data with the heavier spring installed.

    I have one of the heavier springs sitting on a work bench, so I could certainly install it and take a few measurements.

    The lower is a Colt LE6920, with roughly 250 rounds of use on the standard spring. The heavy spring is new and unused. The measurements are an average of 5 pulls taken with a Lyman scale.

    Standard Spring -
    1st stage Average - 1 lb 14.6 oz
    Combined Stages Average - 3 lbs 12.1 oz


    Heavy Spring -
    1st Stage Average - 3 lbs 4.0 oz
    Combined Stages Average - 5 lbs 8 oz

    Have 2 both with the heavy and one is 4 and the other, less broken in one is 4.5. The heavy spring doesn't add much weight and really just makes the reset snappier,

    You guys have sold me. Thank you very much for all your feedback. I'll take some measurements and add my own feedback on a brand new one with the Standard Spring. I'll be using mine in a precision role.

    These are very consistent from unit to unit. Each of mine measure within a few ounces of the others.
