Binary Triggers

Yeah, it was on the 9mm MPX.

I did not shoot his, but heard you make that very comment on the pistol range. So I got a burr in my side and started looking at them, just a bit worried about not wanting that second shot and trying to remember to not release the trigger and switch the lever back to 2 again. Agreed that it would take a bit of muscle memory to get it down to a science.

I usually don't have to worry about that because the mag is already empty.

I don't want nuthin' that requires batteries on my weapons...

YMMV.

Only thing that had batteries is the red dot sight. The two most popular binary triggers are both mechanical. The Digitrigger is the battery operated one.

Do any of you fine feathered folks run a Binary trigger? Good, bad, nasty, thoughts???

Thinking about getting an Echo for one of my AR's, need some experienced minds to lay out the details if you would please...

They are pretty fun. I don't regret the purchase. Easy way to get rid of stock piled ammo that is taking up room. lol
Mine is the Franklin. Pretty much as easy as any trigger install. Think I'll try it in a 15-22 next.
The Fostech I believe will only work on a AR-15, and the original requires their special bolt carrier. I see that the Echo II does not, but I believe it does require a full-auto BCG. The first gen that I shot has a few other quirks, but the main benefit of the Fostech is that you can't outrun the bolt. Although I have yet to on the Franklin.

My bad, "binary" automatically made me think "digital."

FWIW, I have no desire for a battery operated sight either...

I would like to try it on the M&P 15-22. After trying @}BuLL 's and learning how it works, I think I COULD get used to it... although since that is my son's primary rifle, I think I will wait for now. He has built his own 5.56 AR and soon will likely transition to that and leave the 15-22 behind, so that might be my best opportunity to try it out for a while....

Thanks again for letting me shoot it!

Absolutely, that was a fun day.

You had a binary trigger in a MPX? Does the trigger have a bridge? If not, it might get beaten to death by the extra-strong impulse of the MPX mechanism. I'm waiting on Geissele to produce their version of a MPX-ready DIT.

I want one, but I’m limited in the places I can shoot and my Gun Club has already banned them.

Probably a good reason for that....safety maybe?
