    I don't think it feels much better, it just doesn't go bad in a 1000 rounds. The difference of $50.00 is a false economy. For those that won't ever shoot 1000 rounds let alone 10,000 the RRA is probably fine. I've had several over the years before knowing any better. My first went many 1000's of rounds before turning into a single stage, the next 2 didn't last long.

The only other option I'm having them perform is the A2 FH.
    Hey man, good to see you over here!

    That's going to be a mighty fine blaster. RRA match triggers have a reputation for crapping the bed before they should.

    I dumped my N4 trigger and put the Geissele SSA in it. I love the trigger as it feels almost exactly like my FAL and I can't blame long range shot misses on the stock trigger anymore. I would like to have played with the Wilson trigger before the purchase out of curiosity to know what a great single stage feels like, but the Geissele is definitely worth the $

    This is my question, too.

    I had Bill Springfield work his magic on my crappy trigger, and now it's wonderful. I can't imagine how a $155 trigger would be $120 better than a $35 trigger job...

    Is there a good time to crap the bed???

    I have Noveske, SSA and High-Speed triggers. I'd have to say that I'm a trigger snob, but I like the SSA the best. Damn nice trigger and you put it in and don't have to monkey or worry about it- just run it. The Noveske in my MPL Reece isn't bad- what I really like is its short, very positive reset.

    Yes. At least you won't end up with .170 pins.

    Is it worth upgrading to the Geissele SSA Trigger?
    Ultimately that's up to the end user, but I sure dig mine. It's one of the few two-stage triggers that I would even consider in a duty/defensive AR.

    Glad yours worked. Mine did not.

    FMCDH - Couldn't agree more and is also my sentiments as well

    Tim, I like the site! I like the knowledge! Knew where I wanted to research my new baby.

    The stock trigger that Noveske uses is GI trigger. It's like sticking cheap retread tires on a Ferrari. However, that being said, I think it makes sense for Noveske to use the GI trigger because most end users of their rifles will probably want to replace it with the precision trigger of their choice and there are many good options.
    Neveremiss, I attended a Wisconsin shoot not too long ago and had the privileged of shooting an AR with a tuned trigger from JP. It was amazing.

    I went with a trigger job on another weapon platform and I wasn't a believer either. Personally, I would've been better served to just put the decent trigger in from the get go. Reason I'm pushing so hard from the start on this.

    Gents,
    I appreciate all the feedback and I'm very excited to get this Novetske! Haven't been this excited about a 'weapon' purchase in years! I hope this thing 'oozes' the quality that I've read about.

    When purchasing a new Noveske you can 'upgrade' for $155.
