some accounts state that you can use ar triggers in the acr. Just need to use the acr hammer spring or bend a ar one to fit. True? I'd love to drop in a flat faced if possible
why does Geissele make a specific ACR trigger that has to re-use the factory hammer spring if other versions work? What's different about their ACR trigger than other Geissele options?

It's the same as their AR trigger, they just don't include a hammer spring and tell you to re-use the original one.
When they say "most AR triggers" they mostly mean you can't use the ones that come in their own little drop in box.
The banning or confiscation of weapons is a denial of the nature of Man, a pathetic attempt to avert the violence innate to Mankind, an insult to the Sacred Creed of the Murdercube.

All ACRs are ar15 trigger compatible. The only difference is the bend in the hammer spring leg. Even the Masada, in prototype form, which predates the ACR used an AR trigger.
