Multiple simple questions have been asked in this thread since Rev 2 has shipped. If they were answered faith would be big. From past experience most know they will go unanswered. View Quote . |

In my pea brain simple questions can get a simple answer from a very active forum member who would know the answer.
Even if the answer is 'we're not sure yet', or '2 weeks', it's an answer. A basic what color will something be goes unanswered, IIRC that was with the SURG burn guards. They go unanswered and it's not just this product. Instead we get funny comments There will always be questions on beta and fully released products. I know, if you really want to know call the shop and ask. I feel open beta testing is very handy, get input from different types of users and the users can ping different idea's off of each other or share an odd issue they may have experienced. Don't get frustrated when we 'question' you. Most don't doubt the quality in Larue branded products, we just want an eduMacation. This trigger is on your sight with an advertised pull weight, people are going to ask questions. |

Totally failing at beta testing, shot two LT rifles today and my 1S is still in the can
Probably shoot it Wednesday. |

FWIW I have ordered many Larue products before they were readily available and have never been disappointed. Usually was rewarded for the leap of faith. If you don’t need really nice unique products or need it the next day your are in the wrong place. Wait times are actually decreasing exponentially as well now that I think about it.

I think the only issue here is that LaRue seems to be charging for a product they don't even have developed yet, nevermind in stock. IE, you are paying to help them beta test / develop the product.
It would be one thing if you pre ordered and they wouldn't charge your card until the item ships, like most online retailers now days. Them charging cards for items that aren't even fully developed yet and might be "months away" (according to someone at LaRue I asked about this trigger) is. |

I have no doubt the triggers are/will be awesome. I have numerous MBT-2S triggers and plan to have the 1S replace a few of my cassette style triggers...if the pull weight can be 4.0-5.0#. I’ve got a couple LaRue scope mounts and love them as well. I just decided to hold off after seeing different info on here and calling into the shop a couple times also receiving conflicting info. And after this last page, it does seem they are still in somewhat of a second beta testing stage. Nothing at all wrong with a beta testing stage, it just wasn’t clear that’s the current status of the triggers. Regardless, in time I’ll be buying one to try, then a handful of others once I know I like the “final” version.

I think the testing stage is long over,the triggers are done and on the site. My guess is the machines are cranking them out like snickers makes candy bars.
I have never received a product from Larue that was not worth the money. The mbt-ss is ment to Be a duty trigger not a lightweight target trigger that is what the mbt-2s is. I’m headed to the range tomorrow with my mbt ss Ymmv - this is my opinion as a Beta tester who now has the final product. Pete |

You’ve got it backwards. Needs lightweight spring option, not the HD heavy spring available for purchase individually View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:
Quoted:
Larue sells a heavy spring so the option is there if you want it. He has decreased the price on these, so that way not everybody needs to subsidize a heavy trigger spring, but it is available for the additional $5 if you do want it. That said, I'm not a beta tester and I understand I am not owed anything by Larue - I'm happy to be able to read along in this thread. The entitlement from some people is I trust the final product will be excellent and a much higher value than its cost. I am KEEPING my 1-stage Flat Trigger order. |

View Quote I believe the final product is not ready to be shipped en masse, so there's no chance you will receive a "beta product" to test. As for charging cards, nobody is forcing you to place an order. If you look at the Single Stage Flat Bow picture, it is clearly unfinished. I do not expect to get that trigger for months. And I'm OK with that. By placing my order early I know that I am higher on the list to receive it sooner, and my $10 donation goes to NOLO CONTENDERE to continue fighting for our 2A rights. Besides, this was clearly marketed as a CHRISTMAS sale. You should get your trigger sometime in the next 6 months. If that's too long of a wait, maybe there will be a "GOTTA HAVE IT" option for more money to get it quicker. Or you can pay 3x as much for an inferior cast trigger. Some of you guys just don't understand how Beta Testing works. None of us are owed ANYTHING. This whole process did not need to be made public, but it was done to garner interest, be transparent, and give the rest of us a behind-the-scenes sneak peak into new product. Take it for what it is, or don't. |

For future testing considerations, I'm not afraid of an NDA. This thread is sliding. With all due respect let the testing run its course.
There's a $240 cast trigger ready to ship if you need a single stage ASAP. |

Wow. Welcome to the world of instant gratification and demands. He said in the email they weren’t ready to go. What more did you want? A cheap trigger, high quality, donation to a pro 2nd lawyer, and an opportunity to get the inside scoop on the testing(this thread). You paid for the trigger for the reasons above, not because it’s an amazon product.

I sufficiently liked the improvements made to Rev 2, and I saw a couple things that I noted in my feedback to the dead center.
One thing I said, those that want to abandon a trigger pull and don't like the single stage should be using a 2 stage. I don't think a good single stage can or should be expected to compromise in a way that decreases its performace. The bearing surface would need to be so large to accommodate that movement, in this case your chance to abandon is very small before the break. You want a short event time. Now it may be possible to engineer the single stage for a win win, but I will leave that up to LT. Trigger weight is in question, not sure how much I can say but I did achieve favorable results and I provided that feedback as well. |

I mainly run ALG triggers Single stage triggers since I am military and dont do much past that. Would the triggers be better if I went with the MBT-1 since it is single or should I try the MBT-2? I never really feel the sencond stage sine I am running and gunning most times. Only two stage trigger I have is a G-SSA and its in a MK12 build.
I just do not know if there is a benefit for me to do 3 Single stage triggers and 1 two Stage trigger or do 4 Single Stage triggers. Will be going in two SBRs, a 16 inch Rifle, and a Adams Arms AR-10. |

Surprised this hasn’t been mentioned yet but looks like the -1S is shipping with two springs!

I spoke with a rep and he confirmed that they come with 2 trigger springs. I got my flat 2s already and installed it. Pull feels as expected - like the other curved 2s triggers I have been enjoying. I just put in the order for 2 of the 1s which I will install with the light spring to replace a mil and ACT.

Received my curved single stage, came with two trigger springs. Trigger pull has a lot more take up than i like for a single stage. Fast shipping this time. I wont buy another of these for myself but i am greatful for Mark fundraising for Nolo. I think most people would be happy with the singke stage that are accustomed to stock triggers. Cheers ML.

Are you sure it's a single stage version?
Single stage trigger has no take up. Once you start pulling its on the bearing surface. |
