wildcatgoal's Review of CMC Triggers AR-15/AR-10 Single Stage Drop-in Competition Trigger

Pull weight feels the same more or less as my other 2/2.5 lbs. AR triggers from other manufacturers. The break is not exactly what I would call "glass-like" but it's very good. When you're used to a Geissele SSA-E or the higher end Hiperfire triggers, you'll be able to tell this has a more "clunky" feel to the pull. It's not so much creep but it doesn't feel as glassy through the brake... nothing you will actually ever notice unless you're shooting off a bench intentionally shooting slowly. What you will notice is that the reset feels like it's a mile long and 25% of the time, it hangs up halfway through that reset, especially when you slowly reset your trigger finger. The reset is frankly terrible and disqualifies this as a viable 3-gun/2-gun/race gun trigger as the packaging implies. The rest also doesn't seem to have any assist. You don't need much assist unless you're intentionally trying to get as close to a super safety as possible without having one, but you literally feel like you have to almost coax the trigger back forward... it doesn't follow your finger at the same pace (and, like I said, will want to hang up sometimes). I had to put a little dab of Breakthrough on the contact points on mine to get it to smooth out but it still isn't what I anticipated for something dubbed a "Competition Trigger". I do like the trigger shoe... I didn't think I would like that little kickout on the bottom but it's actually quite comfortable and acts as a great guide. The shoe part itself looks very cheap up close, though... it's not billet or anything cut by a CNC machine. I decided to pull this out of my AR15 intended for occasional 2 gun competition use and put it into an AR10... the general "mechanical/clunky" feeling of this trigger is better fitting for the bigger gun.
