Trigger Upgrade

[Jev]

If you have BCM factory lowers, they typically have their PNT trigger. This is actually a pretty nice trigger. What sort of things are you looking for the new trigger to accomplish? Uses?

Mostly looking for a little quicker trigger. Triggers not bad maybe a little spongy, but I keep hearing that getting an upgraded trigger from standard Mil-Spec is a big difference.

LaRue MBT-2S, or since you mentioned single stage, MBT-1S.
Hiperfire EDT2/Heavy Gunner
The Geissele SSA is well worth it if you get it on a good sale. Otherwise, any of the other three are good.

As noted, the trigger you have is pretty decent already. If you really want an upgrade I recommend the MBT from LaRue. I use the 2 stage model, but I'm pretty sure they make a single stage variant. I've got some G triggers. There is no denying that they're excellent, but IMO they're no better than the MBT and they cost about 3x as much.

Thanks for the feedback. I prefer a single stage trigger I know Geiselle has one model but out of stock everywhere. Open to other brands.

Geissele SSP

Geissele is probably going to be the most listed answer.

But here's a second for the Larue. They are a fine trigger for the price. Buy anything from Larue and you'll be prompted to add a trigger. At least go there and read all the reviews.

I have a couple BCM lowers how much benefit would I get from upgrading triggers? If so any good suggestions?

I wouldn’t waste my money on a trigger unless it’s a rifle set up for precision or matches. Personally, I have no use for a 2-stage trigger outside of those scenarios.

Spend your money on ammo and training. I guarantee you will derive more benefit from that.

I'l second the Larue for the money, very hard to beat and its single stage and crisp. My goto is G-SSA.

I think you need to go actually feel a high quality trigger. "quicker" is not a term I would use to describe one. Spending $230 on a trigger will not make your gun shoot faster. Learning how to shoot faster is how your gun will shoot faster. There is a real technique to it called the 'rhythm drill'. A lot of shooters have a trigger preference. I prefer 2 stage triggers to single stage triggers. Although I understand there are some very nice single stage triggers, I like the ability to prep the trigger before breaking the shot. Thats just my preference. I own a G2S, Larue MBT-2s, and had 2 schmid triggers. They are all reliable except for one of the larues. One of the Schmids was weird outa the box but broke in really nicely after awhile. My G2S is the oldest trigger with the most round counts and is the gold standard, I just have a slight preference for the Larue triggers. If I had to pick only one it would be Larue.

A 2-stage will never be as quick as a single stage.
