    There is nothing wrong with not knowing, thats why youre here and why you asked. If you want to spend a couple hundred dollars on something you DO NOT NEED...then by all means.

    This thread has recently been resurected and there is some very good information that puts your current situation in perspective.

    I highly recommend it...to you sir...free of charge

    Send your trigger and $45 to Bill Springfield. Search this forum and elsewhere for evaluations of his work and his contact info.

    All of the standard AR triggers I've shot (not many, I admit) were unacceptably gritty and heavy. After Springfield worked his magic, mine is now wonderful.

    That sounds like it might be what I am looking for. I don't like the gritty feeling either. I have seen on other forums people cutting and polishing on the trigger assembly. That is something if I tried myself, would wind up costing me alot more than 45 bucks.

    I've posted this in another thread about Springfield's trigger jobs, but I'll say it again here:

    I originally thought I'd gamble $45 on a Springfield trigger job while I saved my lunch money for a Giessele.

    After my trigger came back from Springfield I was so happy with it that I decided I didn't need a different trigger, after all...
    No disrespect to anybody who spent $150 on a new trigger, but I just didn't see the point.

    a 'good' trigger is indeed, helpful in accuracy, but in the end, YOU, the shooter, determine overall performance.

    IMO, i go to my BA precision, rifles if i want precision, long range shots.

    (and, I'm NOT saying an M4 cannot be precision, either.)
    it is better to remain silent and be thought as being a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt...

    As of now I am just getting started in the long range shooting. If I can get out to 500-600 yards tahat would suite me fine for now. As far as the springfield trigger goes, does anybody know about what kind of turn around time it is?

    There is a reason ussocom uses Geissele triggers rather than sending their g.i. type triggers to Bill Springfield.
    I have just finished reading some posts about Bill Springfield and there are some good ones. However, some of the problems people have been having is nerve racking and scary. I don't know about it now.

    Again, all of the "standard" AR triggers I've shot were distractingly gritty and creepy.

    Could I shoot with them? Yes. Was it pleasurable to do so, or easy to shoot accurately? No.

    Given all the attention paid on this forum to other "fit" issues like pistol grips, foreends, buttstocks, and the "feel" issues with secondary controls like ambidextrous safties, bolt releases, mag releases, flashlight switches, etc. etc. etc. it seems like improving the single most important control (the trigger) is well worth it.

    Could I shoot without a decent cheekweld, or with an uncomfortable pistol grip, or operate the gun with an awkward mag release or bolt catch? Yes. Would it be better to fix them? Yes.
