I have two ARs, a Bushmaster lower/BCM upper and a BCM lower/upper. My aim is to have both have the same trigger feel, not to get Gucci's. Would the Rock River trigger set do this alright? They seem to be very reasonably priced.

That is a great point....sometimes I have to remind myself that we are talking about ARs on this site which happens to be the best platform imho to tap every ounce of performance as possible by way of things like triggers, stocks, grips, muzzle devices, enhanced bcg's, SS barrels w. special chambers.....and so on and so forth. Sure the most stripped down AR will still kill zombies and go bang by in large most of the time, but that is not my objective as a builder as find half assing anything never works.
Imho don't go with the RRA two stage unit as numerous people have had the 2 stage turn into a mushy one stage. Supposedly as of recent this has gotten a bit better but for the price of the RRA 2stage you can almost get a LMT 2stage which is a much better and far more reliable trigger than the RRA.

Belmont, have you rung out a TTU? I preferred it to the SSA and have had very good success shooting at distance with it. For me it gives me the best of both worlds (has a very clean break and reset is automatic)... You can shoot very accurately with it and I also found it reset much faster for me when running drills that required fast follow up shots.
On the other hand I have a buddy that rips an SSA faster than I personally would have thought possible on some of Lambs drills...
I have certainly found triggers to be a highly personal thing, and I highly recommend that guys who are serious about choosing the right trigger, try as many as they can before buying if at all possible...
Send me a PM if you want to buy it direct from LMT and I will give the email of a first class gent who can get you squared away
Nice info D90, do you have the single or two stage Wilson? I prefer a non "drop in" or self contained trigger like the TTU's or Timneys but I would have no problem running the right one.....If I were gonna buy a self contained "drop in" unit I would prob. look at the TTU's or a Gold trigger first as they have gotten some great reviews and what little bit of time I have on the 2stage TTU I enjoyed.

It's a single with a very crisp 4# break... I have found zero reason for adjustment, I found them "just right" for me out of the box. I have just under 7k rounds through them. I ran an SSA for 1500 rounds and made the switch...

First: I'm not a Spike's fanboy.
I prefer the Spike's Combat Trigger (NiB coated) for my fighting carbine.
I understand that for people who are new to shooting, it may be beneficial to start their basic marksmanship skills on a stock trigger.
However, what about people (like me) who cut their teeth shooting handguns with heavy triggers like revolvers, DA/SA SIG-Sauers, or Glocks w/ NY triggers?
I jumped right into the black rifle game with no previous black-gun experience and I don't feel that any detriment was done by my 'skipping' the stock mucho-nasty GI trigger. I haven't had any trigger control issues (I'm limited by my stance as much as anything...i'm NOT proclaiming to be a ninja by any means).
I could understand that, if somebody didn't have a background in shooting or they spent most of their time shooting a bolt action rifle, skipping the GI trigger could cheat them from some really good repetitions and foundation-laying. But even the GI trigger is WAY easier than shooting a Glock 26 w/ NY trigger using 124gr +P Speer Lawman on a steel silhouette at 80 yards for time. I've done that. Super heavy Taurus revolver gritty 13.5lb DA trigger pull? Done that too. SIG P228 DA/SA transitions in my agency qual from 25 yards for time? BTDT. So, my questions is: what am I gonna learn from a GI trigger that I haven't already had to overcome in shooting those platforms? I think that it becomes GOOD ADVICE to tell people like me to move up to the better triggers.
I'd own a Geiselle or KAC if I could afford one. But the Spike's NiB trigger has been a beneficial and reliable upgrade that I feel I could recommend to any experienced handgun shooter who is transitioning into running a carbine.
Is my reasoning wrong on this one?
