Zebraman Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Does anyone have experience with the McCormick set up with the straight trigger? Are they any good? Does the shape of the trigger help or no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clint-M Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 I just got the Geissele SD3Gun trigger and the flat trigger feels great on it. At first it threw me off and I wasn't sure I would like it but after a few minutes of getting used to it and comparing it to curved triggers I discovered I much prefer the straighter trigger with a wide surface.

45shooter Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 I have been using them and like them alot. Great feel and real positive reset. They have a new owner and he is very supportive of the sport and is sponsoring a bunch of matches. For a lot less than most other triggers I think they are tough to beat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bpipe95 Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Does anyone have experience with the McCormick set up with the straight trigger? Are they any good? Does the shape of the trigger help or no? I had the chance to play with one at the pro am. To put it nicely I was really disappointed, lots of creep and the break was squishy. I was bummed to say the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
45shooter Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Sorry to hear that. I know the guy sold all he had there and someone even offered to but the one out of his rifle. All the ones I have used have been had no to very little creep. Especially compared to all the two stage triggers some are using. I think they are a great trigger and I have jp ar gold and giesselle triggers as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lnxgeek Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 I use the Geissele SD3Gun. It is almost like getting a crisp 1911 trigger for your AR. I've also used the Geissele SSA it is a more traditional 2-stage trigger, both feel a lot better than my old GI triggers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've also used the Geissele SSA it is a more traditional 2-stage trigger, both feel a lot better than my old GI triggers. Your 1911's must have a longer trigger pull than my 1911. The Geissele S3G/SD3G feel more like ultra-smooth Glock triggers to me. The AR Gold feels more like a 1911 and in some ways I like it even more than my 1911 trigger.

GorillaTactical Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 (edited) Does anyone have experience with the McCormick set up with the straight trigger? Are they any good? Does the shape of the trigger help or no? I use one in my rifle. Very crisp with little to no takeup. only problem is that if you get too high on the trigger, I find that the gun can bump fire very easily having installed a few JP's for people, I think they are the way to go....when adjusted properly, they have very minimal takeup and a very light pull Edited October 5, 2011 by GorillaTactical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
want2race Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 After checking out the CMC flat triggers at pro-am I ordered two of them. I had the JP trigger and hammer in my AR and liked it but wanted to try the flat trigger since all my guns have flat triggers. My JP broke at 3.5# using the yellow hammer spring. Reset was short and light. The CMC breaks at 2.5# if measured in the middle of the flat trigger. 2.0# if measured at the bottom. The reset is much stronger since it uses heavier springs than I had installed in my JP. The reset distance is slightly longer than my JP, but since I don't ride the reset when I shoot I don't think it's a deal breaker. It's not a great deal longer, I had both triggers installed in lowers and was able to compare side by side. I've only used the CMC in one stage so far but my initial opinion is good. I like the feel of it and the pull is very good. I bought two, the other one is sitting in a stripped lower still. Now I just need to build a rifle around it.

Tsmoke Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Wilson Combat 3 Gun Trigger. Expensive, but worth it. I also use the Wilson 3G trigger. I have had zero issues with it and it's much better than factory. I have not used other aftermarket triggers so I can't make any other comparisons.

Danny M Posted October 10, 2011 Author Share Posted October 10, 2011 I went with the Giessele S3G, I installed it and could not be happier with the pull. The follow up shots are more than I could have asked for. Very tight and smooth pull from start to finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P.E. Kelley Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 I just started playing (500 rounds through a Nordic 22 uppper) with the CMC straight and I like it! I bet I'll be buying more. I have Jard, JP (both standard and EZ fit) and Giessele 3G and SSA. Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaxshooter Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 I have not tried the AR Gold but from what I hear that may be the ticket. I have several JPs one factory installed in my CTR-02 and two others I installed. The installation is easy if you follow thier instructions. You do need to blue loctite the trigger once you have it set the way you like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
