Drop-in AR trigger for Steel Challenge

[RGERBER]

I have been shooting my MP 15-22 at the steel challenge and really enjoying it, I know that AR triggers drop in to the MP 15-22 but I do not know which drop-in kit to get for this type of high speed shooting. Any suggestions would be helpful.

I do know that some light aftermarket triggers don't have the hammer strike force to set off rimfire primers, I know for a fact that Timney triggers do not.

I would look into the Geissele SSA or SSA-E trigger.

I use CMC drop-ins on both my AR-22's that I use for rimfire 2-gun

AR Gold trigger is wonderful

Wilson combat is the fastest shooting and easiest to feel that I've used, it breaks clean and you KNOW exactly when it resets and you can squeeze again

Any more suggestions for triggers? Trying to revive this thread.

The Gold and the Geissele seem to be about $270(!) The CMC seems to be about $170.

I've got a Taccom "ar" 22 :



Runs pretty good, except today at the range the trigger seemed sort of "heavy". The whole rifle is very light, it seemed like I'd be better with a lighter pull trigger, as long as it still sets off the 22 rounds. My current trigger is an ALG Defense.

How many pounds of pull are necessary for an ar22?

Is there a nice smooth trigger with a light pull (or adjustable?) that would work on a light rifle like mine? Any suggestions are appreciated.

[navin r]

Yeah, but, still.....I've got some ALG triggers w/ some JP 3.5 lb (I think) springs in some regular ar's; much heavier rifles, the weight of the trigger pull to me doesn't seem to be as much of an issue in those. But on the Taccom, seeing as how it's pretty light, the weight of the pull on the trigger seems "heavy"; seems more likely to move to rifle a bit when firing (?)
Still interested in some more trigger suggestions or more thoughts if anyone has any.

if its cost thats an issue you could always get a spring kits
match triggers aren't really needed for speed shooting

BTW where do you shoot the steel challenge

[Caseless]

Aren't most rimfire steel challenge stages one shot per target? I don't recall double tapping on any target at the last couple of annual rimfire state steel matches.

IMHO you buy $200+ single stage AR trigger mostly for their short and crisp reset function. If there's no need to double tap continuously , trigger pull weight reduction alone is easily achieved using JP springs~$12.

Now if I am GM level...then maybe I can take advantage of using my S3G trigger in my M&P15-22.

Look at the Geissele G2S, it's $165. But the SSA-E and the National Match, DMR triggers are beautiful things.

I have a CMC Flat Bow in my AR-22. Works just fine.

[RGERBER]

I installed an AR Gold trigger works great

[Motion122]

Had the Geissele SD3G trigger in my M&P 15-22 and it shot nice, but a trigger that is over half the cost of the rifle was just too much for me. I ended up with a mil spec trigger from Spikes(the best mil spec I had around) and the JP reduced power springs. Love this set-up now.

JARD adjustable, Brownells has'em.
