| I have been looking for a couple 2-stage NM triggers, and have been offered a new Geissele SSF in trade. I did a little research on the trigger, and looks like it is designed for select fire rifles....how would it perform in a standard AR lower? Also, these things are ridiculously expensive, is there much demand for them? I don't want to get stuck with it in case I don't like it, what would be a "don't pass this up" price to take a chance on it? |

Its basically a select fire version of the SSA.
Some guys buy them because "its what the real operators" use for their clone gun. You can use it. Your gun would still shoot semi. If I were you, I'd pass and buy an SSA instead. Unless the SSF was for cheap, then I would buy that, then sell it, then buy an SSA and use the rest for a nice steak dinner. cooked rare, topped with crumbled blue cheese, lightly seasoned with salt and pepper |

That trigger is a full auto trigger, full auto disconnector and a full auto hammer. The BATFE frowns on full auto fire control parts in a semi auto lower. I would not go there unless the trigger group is mated with a RDIAS. Colt recently started using FA hammers in their AR it is just a slightly heavier hammer with out an auto sear. |

Yep, you can get the SSA from Primary Arms for 160.00 ?? SSA is $240 on their site. Link |

What are the typical failures with the RRA triggers? The engagement surfaces wear out and the triggers fail to function as intended. Could be in the form of hammer follow, could be disconnectors failing to catch and the gun doubling or tripling. All triggers will eventually wear, but the RRAs seem to do so more frequently than the Geissele or a standard milspec trigger. Don't know about the Larue MBT yet since it hasn't been out that long. Never touched a KAC but haven't heard anything bad about them. |

Quoted:
they are known to fail. Until you actually use both, then you will always be missing out. Total visible difference between the old disco spring and the new disco spring was about .020 in length - and I'm sure the primary issue was it's inability to push the disco back up fast enough. G customer service identified the issue immediately and roughly 10 days later I had new springs and a working gun. RRA has stated that since the design change several years fewer than 1 in 10,000 gets returned for any reason. I believe the older models had a return rate closer to 1 in 1000. |
