    I went for the Wilson Tactical Trigger Unit. I'm happy.

    Currently all of my lowers have Giesselles in them. The 3 gun is great but for me it's not for a fighting type carbine. I have several SSA's and SSA-E's and prefer the SSA-E and have many thousands through 2 of them. I'm not sure why but I still like the SSA's on a dedicated patrol or defense carbine.

    "Geissle Triggers" are my favorite. I prefer to use the hybrid , short reset SD3G in both my RDS and scoped rifles but only after I install the heavier 4.75 lb (Recce) and 5.75 lb (RDS carbine) trigger springs available from Geissele. For me, these heavier trigger springs add an extra margin of safety and make the trigger reset snappier and more pronounced, and both guns are using the same type trigger.

    It's a rolling second stage, but it is actually a 2 stage, not a single stage.

    The SD3G trigger is actually a hybrid trigger, not a true single stage or a two stage according to this info off their website

     Flat trigger bow gives enhanced control and lighter perceived weight
     Hybrid pull in-between single and two-stage
     Short total pull length
     Short reset
     Full-power hammer spring
     Tool steel construction

    Sorry, that's basically what I was getting at. Basically what they have said from my understanding is that it functions similarly to a single stage, but has a second stage as a safety feature essentially.

    Not sure if you are considering other brands, but I've tried a good number of them now. I have yet to find one I like better than the original JP trigger. I put them in myself and they are excellent. Good price and they are trust worthy.

    Edit: I use the duty/tactical set up.

    I really like my SSA but am currently trying out factory triggers to see if I really need an awesome trigger, or just think I do. I have no experience with a Timney or any of the trigger pack types like Chip McCormick. To be honest I personally like as few parts and springs as possible to eliminate possible problems/failures/spare parts requirements. Im personally not sure id want a trigger pack type trigger in my serious use ARs because of their reliance on small external clips to hold it in place.
