Best AR trigger for under $100

[yetti462]

I just received my Hiperfire 24 3g trigger from Brownells. It is the ar trigger I have felt. It was $110!!!!!

Is this a the BCM you're talking about?

This one is in the mail now. Once I get time to put it in, I'll report back.

If the budget gets upped I am a big fan of Elftman Tactical drop in units, nothing touches them IMHO and their new "value line" is $100 cheaper than their other offerings coming in at $160 a pop.

Elftmann SE Drop In Trigger - Straight ELF-SE-S

Got the BCM trigger today. Put it in and couldn't tell any difference at all. Then I realized I got them mixed up. I had put my original one back in by mistake!

So after swaping the BCM in, all is good. Really a much smoother pull without the gritty-ness. Seems a little lighter to. I'm happy!

I was able to make a short range trip this morning. I put 90 rounds through it. The trigger is much better. And I was happy I put everything in right and it worked!

The last 30 rds was my first ever mag dump. It was fun but seeing $9 gone faster than a tequila shot at a strip club is still hard on me.

Next trigger will either be BCM PNT or ALG ACT.

or TriggerTech if my curiosity gets the best of me.

I have one of these to attempt to make work in my JR TD Carbine. I have a 24C in my 9mm AR. A quick single stage trigger is important in a go fast gun.

I have 3 - 3lb Velocity AR Drop In Trigger that are dead on 3lbs pull, crisp, sharp and tight no slack. Had two for two years and still feel as good as the day I purchased them, ($150). They also make a 4# and a 4.5# drop in. I have purchased a CMC MATCH GRADE 2 SET-2LB RLS FLAT Drop In for my Grendel build. Never used one before so I want to see.

^ The Velocity is my new favorite trigger and that says a lot. I also have a Gissele SDC, a LaRue MBT-2S, a couple RRA NM & a couple PSA enhanced.

Some good suggestions on here. I think I am going to have to do a little trigger upgrading for mine (the more I think). All of mine could use a decent upgrade, they all have their own function in the upcoming zombie apocalypse... and all could use a better trigger.

My son has been strongly hinting at a binary for a while, I keep telling him that once he has his own career and ammo funds, he can binary the hell out of his if he wants, but I don't want to go through my ammo twice as fast thankyouverymuch...

Although I am sorely tempted now that everyone wants to ban them. But the prices have nearly doubled. I should have stuck one back in the safe just for no good reason a year ago... but didn't have the money. But everyone wants to ban them now... so... dammit!

Another vote for the ALG Defense ACT trigger, I find them on ebay for $70 shipped. I also have 3 Geissele G2S triggers, but at $160-ish a pop, they are over the OP's limit.

I got my Velocity 3# trigger on GunBroker a while back for $99.00 delivered.

It was a steal at that price...

Primary arms has cmc single stage on sale right now for like 90. I still think the large on sale for 99 is about the best trigger for the money out there

Already out of stock.

Not sure if anyone else is on the Larue wait list or not. I ordered my latest trigger from them on March 2nd. Got my order complete email today.

They are still on sale for $99 right now.

Personally I’d look into the $30-$40 nickel boron coated milspec triggers

 

[bonzaiberger]

You can get a hyperfire from brownelles today for $79

Well....Larue trigger got here today. Can't install it. Rifle has the KNS anti-walk pins in it that were given to me as a gift. I forgot the damn pins had loctite on them and I didn't heat them up. Used the original allen wrenches, stripped the holes right out.
Can't find my kit that lets you remove stripped screws either. If the wife doesn't know where it's at (she won't) then I'm probably gonna have to drill the damn things out or spend $20 on a ANOTHER kit.

I just got an email from Primary Arms saying they’re selling RRA NM triggers for $85

I'm not up on my 1 vs 2 stage trigger. I've never shot a 2 stage. I know the difference between them and I'm not sure if I really need it. But for that price for a Geissele, I'll keep it in mind.

Single stage is best if you want a surprise break, 2 stage is best if you want confidence in when the break will occur.

2 stage will naturally be better when shooting long range, while single stage can be preferable for more immediate snap shots.

I generally prefer 2 stage.

Unless it's a full auto receiver you're trying to preserve, they're just tactical gucci, I'd lose the pins in favor of a better trigger.
