Thanks for the reply Dave. I will not be doing any competitive shooting, mostly home defense and range shooting, practicing my "double tap" skills. Hard to make up my mind on the two triggers. It is not a money issue for me. I am willing to pay for the 24E if I was certain that it would serve my purposes and be an "upgrade" over the EDT.
I have a EDT. Got it a couple weeks before Shot. So far it has been a great trigger. Definitely a step up from the ALG ACT. I still love the ALG, but this one has less creep and is very consistent. (about 4lbs) I am going to give it a try on my SPR this week too to see how it does. If anyone is interested I will give updates.
Dave, BTW, your review helped me decide on giving it a try. I am thinking of ordering another.
I have only shot the lighter green spring. I don't know if I will try the red. On my BCM 16 ss410, it is 4lbs, so a little heavier than I am used to on a mid range precision rifle, but the break was crisp enough that it worked really well.

-Crowder.
Replaced my SSA for the 24C, it's lightning fast with enough control for longer shots. Running it on a 14.5 BCM ELW-F w/ Vortex HD 1-6. Best single stage I've tried so far. No issues to date - the unit seems fairly robust as far as materials used. Roughly 1500 rounds.
P144:1
I got an EDT a couple weeks ago, wanting to try a decent single-stage trigger (I have a collection of two-stage Geissele triggers). Installation was about the same as a GI trigger, and the tapered alignment pin made it a little easier. I used the lighter weight spring (green) said to give 4.5lbs pull, and it feels like about that. The trigger, hammer and disconnector appeared to be machined from bar stock.
For comparison, I've used a dozen or two GI triggers, three of the ALG ACT, one Spike's nickel-boron, and the range of Geissele two stages. I would put the EDT in between the best GI and the Geissele two-stages. It has a bit of creep and it isn't light or wonderfully crisp, but it has less creep than most GI triggers and doesn't have the stacking feel that most of them have, where the pull weight gets heavier during the creep. It is very much a single stage with a bit of creep, not a two-stage. (To be clear, single stage with a bit of creep is exactly what it is advertised to be.) I would compare the feel to a run of the mill, GI-spec 1911 trigger, like you would get in a Springfield Armory GI model 1911 (that is SAI's lowest price 1911, and is definitely not like a $2000 custom 1911). You can feel the sear surfaces dragging but it's dragging across slight roughness, not across the Rocky Mountains. Reset seems very positive - hard to describe but it feels better than a GI trigger reset. I would take this over any GI trigger, including the ACT, any day. It's not a substitute for a Geissele if you want a really smooth two-stage trigger, but it would be a good replacement for a GI trigger.
