I bought a lower but....

[ira41magfan]

I bought a Aero lower today but I'm unsure about a couple of things and am making an inquiry. It wasn't a expensive purchase but you know how that goes sometimes.

First, the trigger seems a little gritty. After my visit to the range, it was a littlegritty so I sprayed a little Rem Oil on it...hope this isn't a bad thing but seemed to help.

Second, after each round, I hear the recoil spring when a round is fired. Is this bad? BTW, this was for the Palmetto upper in 6.5 Grendel bought last year for I didn't like sharing the Ruger 5.56 lower with it. Some of my grendel magazines didn't fit for some reason.

I'm capable of of replacing a trigger and am requesting suggestions for a single stage trigger, also, is the spring sound something that I should be concerned about?

Thanks
Rob

ALL ARs have the "Sprang" sound. Unless you have somthing like a JP silent spring. Nothing to worry about

Throw some grease on the trigger instead of remoil (clean off oil and debris, apply some grease, try again). It'll probably smooth out over time as they wear in together, but upgrades are always nice too. Probably just a basic milspec no frills trigger.

Sproiiing, sounds about right. They all make different sproiiings but they all shoot the same. My builds vs my Rock River or other factory guns all sound different.

This rope trick works wonders on a mil-spec trigger.

Ditch the milspec Trigger and go with a 3lb drop in like the Rise Armament RA-140 that is built in Broken Arrow Ok.
Palmetto or Primary arms (don’t remember which) had it on sale for under $100 last week on a 24 hour sale.

Thanks, I will be buying a new trigger.

LaRue Triggers are one to consider as well.

I’ve got one of those Rise 140 new in package I’d let go of for $120 plus shipping. It’s a really nice trigger for the money, I’ve got one in one of my rifles.

Well thank you for offering. I've already bought a Geissele 2 Stage.
