Geissele SSA-E

Post by clarionite »

Any of you guys have experience with the SSA-E trigger?

I'm thinking of ordering one...

Some of the other guys at work have them installed in their rifles and they are very nice for a 2-stage. The total weight is 3.5lbs which for certain setups, is too light for me personally. I prefer the SSA with a 4.5lb pull for run and gun carbines and a lighter pull for more precision guns. Any Geissele that you get, for the most part, will be a vast improvement over a gritty and heavy stock mil-spec trigger. It really boils down to what you're going to do with that particular gun.

Man.... You just got rid of the last piece that was bothering me, such a light trigger pull. I didn't see the SSA in my searching. I saw the SDC, but didn't like the straight trigger.

I pulled the trigger (pun intended) on one tonight.

I need to find some optics I like so I can do it in one trip to the range and conserve ammo. I put a red dot on it to play with, and hated it. It didn't last a half a range trip.

I bought an SSA-E right after I got back out here, for my 20" "precisionish" AR. Can't wait to get home and try it out later this year :cool:
