I bet it balances well!

Plan to do both 308 and 65?

Was afraid of that.

only complaint is the reset of the ATC trigger. It doesn't have much "umph" behind it. takeup and break are exceptional though.

I've heard of people already swapping them out for their preferred Geisseles.

The size of that bag looks great. I have a Haley incog bag that fits my 10.3" SBR with room to spare for my can and 4 mags.

Geissele makes a fricking awesome trigger. The problem is, that by sticking to the traditional layout, they are limited in geometry by the placement of the FCG pins and tolerances. The drop in triggers have the advantage of full control of the geometry and the ability to individually tune each one before shipping out. I'm still a huge Geissele fan, but there are some really great, and some would argue better, drop in triggers out there for a fraction of the price you pay for Geissele. IMO, they are going to have to enter the drop in trigger game sooner than later if they want to stay competitive.

My only experience so far with a aftermarket trigger is the elftman single stage ones. I like how they are adjustable and real smooth. I haven't had the time to shot them to much...trying to change that ;)

I have a CMC. I really like it. Crisp with no travel. I have the single stage flat trigger.

Im not a huge fan of this site, TTAG, but in this article the author runs quite a few drop in triggers through a Dvorak TriggerScan which gives some objective information about each ones pull. The pull you like best is still subjective, but it could be a starting point for trying new things.

That's a hell of a write up. I'll have to read that when I get home. Thanks prop.

I really don't like that little hook at the bottom of the flat face CMC trigger. LOVE the flat face Geissele.

Carson, Prop, Nola, and whomever else:
Looking to buy a DD V7 SLW. Am I losing anything with the light profile barrel? Can I get an adapter and run my Omega on a barrel that light?
