Most Helpful Positive Review Perfect for PCC
After looking at all the PCC triggers this is the most budget friendly one I could find. Comes with anti walk pins (as all triggers should) and all required hardware to install. The only issue was the corner edges as they were almost not comparable with a EPC. I had to lube it and tap it in. I’m su...

Most Helpful Negative Review 1st gen is better
This is my second ra-242 I have the 1st gen and just installed the 2nd gen. I much prefer the set screw installation of the 1st gen over the springs in the 2nd gen. It is a pain in the azz to get the trigger pin holes to line up with receiver. I had to use a hammer to get the 2nd pin aligned correct...

Works great just needs to be greased up

by Tokemon, Verified Owner from OH, United States Written on December 11, 2025
Pretty sure this is only cause I'm using it with a 22lr but the trigger kept getting stuck while resetting. I did shoot 700+ rnds of 22lr and didn't have any lube on it at all. Hopefully it doesn't continue to hangup after lubing it up but if it does rise armorment has always been solid on warranties and fixing issues with their triggers. Would recommend highly nice crisp brake and ultra short reset.
Pros:
  • Works great
  • Grease it up for 22lr
Cons:
  • Keep it greased up
Best Used for:
  • AR15
  • AR10
  • AR9
Would recommend: Yes

Smooth with crisp break and short reset

by rickeg, Verified Owner from MN, United States Written on December 8, 2025
Bougt this for a 300blk pistol build and wanted a single stage trigger that would provide a clean crisp feel along with a fast reset. The pistol is a PDW so reliable function to go along with the form was very important to me to ensure that there is never a question that if trigger is pulled it goes bang. This checked the boxes on all of those and results in both fun at the range when practicing and faith that if needed at home I have a fast and reliable tool that is going to be there when I need it.
Pros:
  • reliable
  • Short reset
  • smooth break
Cons:
  • None at this point
Best Used for:
  • PDW
  • range & target shooting
Would recommend: Yes

Third Optics Planet Exclusive Rise Armament RA-242 Gen 2 Enhanced Rifle Trigger purchase

by hjk71, Verified Owner from CT, United States Written on September 2, 2025
Let me start by saying that I truly enjoy the crisp and easy nature of using this trigger. I have allowed my friends to use my rifles that have this trigger installed, and they, too, are impressed. Several have already purchased several to replace their OEM triggers that came with their rifles. Rise Armament was a wonderful surprise and a first try for me as a novice (year two of firearm ownership). I also appreciate that I can make the swap myself; however, I utilize a trusted gunsmith to make any necessary adjustments to all firearms. I would never attempt to do it myself unless I were a very skilled and trained gunsmith with a certificate. Nothing says stupid like doing something yourself only for it to backfire, literally. I plan to buy several more rifles and will be swapping out the triggers, as I prefer them all to be the same. It allows for an easy transition for me from one to the next.
Pros:
  • Exceptional quality
  • Crisp & clean break when firing
  • Very durable , easy to install , best universal high end trigger
  • easy to install, exactly as advertised,
Cons:
  • None
Best Used for:
  • rifle

Great trigger

by Jeff Ficker, Verified Owner from OR, United States Written on August 5, 2025
I want to start out stating I had some difficulty with the installation of this trigger. I don't know if it was the trigger or the lower it went into. Now, having said that. Once it was installed, it's a fantastic trigger. It's smooth, crisp reset and light pull make for a very enjoyable day at the range. I would recommend this trigger to anyone, and I already have.

does not rest

by B, Verified Owner from TN, United States Written on July 30, 2025
I first bought one and it worked just fine and was great for the price so I bought a second one. My second one consistently jammed and failed to reset every time I don’t immediately remove my finger after pulling the trigger. I noticed this was a reported issue on other reviews too I just thought I would give it a try.
Pros:
  • Price
Cons:
  • Defected out of the box
Would recommend: No
