Trigger prep is important. Otherwise bad habits can develop. Flinches, slappin, overall bad trigger discipline. Two stage triggers rule. No pistols have single stage triggers, so why should our rifles?

Yeah, it's hard for me to describe what it is I liked about it. I think it is like having a very very short-pull/short-reset light trigger at 2 lbs (this is the 2nd stage), with a 2.5 lb takeup or something. I don't know. I just like the feel of it, again, for specific purposes, like @dennishoddy said, target shooting or something like that. It's not a hunting trigger, per se, and it's not for tactical or run-n-gun or 3 gun style stuff. It's just something different. I have a number of different rifle, some of which are purpose built for a specific thing, like paper-punching.

I run the SSA-E in my R&G rifle, I'd not hesitate to use it hunting. It's the perfect trigger for me. I have a handful of rando AR's laying in the safe, guess I could spend $99 to try the Larue

I try not to use larue just because they are always overhyped by the fanboys. and the owner is a 100% narcissistic dbag.

I can understand them being better than SSA, but are they better than SSA-E?

I prefer 2 stage triggers also, hate single stage. I want that slack then wall, it's so much better.

I wouldn't say it's better then the SSA-E, but the SSA-E isn't better then the MBT. At half the price, I'd take the MBT over the SSA-E anyday of the week.

IMO, a two-stage trigger is just as fast as a single. It's simply the person behind the gun.

I use a lot of LaRue products because they work; so I guess I'm also a fanboy. My LaRue rifle shoots less then half MOA and I was shot a golf ball at 500 yards with lots of witnesses. The products are hyped because they simply work and are worth the money.

Mark, IMO is far from a dbag. I've have had nothing but positive experiences with ML. I'm not going to go into specifics, but he took care of me recently and simply based off that, I'm a customer for life.

Probably because you identified yourself as a poor poor underpaid LE.
Lr still makes the best qd scope mounts. I still use them.

If the owner hadn't gone along with the NRA's reasoning with regards to bump stocks after the Las Vegas shooting, I'd definitely grab one of those triggers. Unfortunately, Larue is on the same list as the NRA, Springfield and RRA, as far as I'm concerned.

The ironic thing is that if the ATF reclassifies "rate of fire increasing" products across the board, this trigger may become an NFA regulated item.

I hope this doesn't happen, but it's the reason why I have no use whatsoever for those in the industry who give gun violence prevention d-bags any justification for their own arguments.

I agree that Larue is in the crowd of some manufacturers who I think are overpriced and overhyped. Not that their products aren't great, I don't know... this will be my first ever Larue purchase.

But I've no major desire to spend extra money on Larue, Noveske, BCM and the like, when the rifles I have built from much more inexpensive parts are perfectly functional in all the situations I have yet needed.

Will these triggers set off 7.62x39 hard primers, 308/7.62 primers or function on 22lr AR uppers?
Do they use standard power/strength hammer springs?
I know Geiselle triggers do and that's why I use Geissele triggers.
