triggers

Apex continues to expand the pistols they support. They are now making triggers, safeties, magazine releases for the CZ P-10, and have many more projects in the works since expanding their capabilities.

I don’t spend all that much time talking about AR-15 upgrades, because I find that many bolt ons are basically chopper chrome. That is to say, they might look cool but actually don’t enhance performance. But today we are going to look at one that I have found to be worth your consideration. A thing that I use myself, and that I find to be worth the time and effort to install.

I got my start in the gun industry doing Glock trigger jobs in the late ’90s. I had a version that broke under 2 pounds using modified stock parts – except the firing pins spring. I have done over 1000 trigger jobs since then. They are now all more or less obsolete thanks to Timney.

For the 2019 SHOT Show, Timney Triggers rolled out their newest product, the Elite Hunter trigger for Remington 700 bolt-action rifles.

Working in conjunction with the legendary 3-Gunner Jerry Miculek, Mossberg unveiled this week the all-new, drop-in JM Pro Adjustable Match Trigger. 

Geisselle is best known for a suite of AR triggers, suitable for every platform and style. They have become a force to be reckoned with, and are featured as standard equipment in more premium rifles than any other brand. In addition, they have slowly but surely created fantastic tools, hand guards, and a variety of other products. This year at SHOT Show, they pulled several rabbits out of the hat.
