Reviews & Ratings for Franklin Armory BFSIII 22-C1 Trigger — 73 reviews — Page 1

At first glance I was disappointed in the lame red sticker that you can't even tell what the pictures are it is so badly printed . not sure what I was expecting but it wasn't that .. installation instructions say one thing , but picture another .. that I found humorous , but I knew how it went back together so it wasn't a big deal .. then I shot it !!!!!! what a blast !!! nothing crazy but just plain fun .. I will get another one for a bigger gun just to confirm , but I think I am more accurate on the release fire. Every charger needs one of these

Work good but needed to make some changes in the bolt release spring the release to hang-up. Reduce the area where it contact the spring or order a newer bolt release.

I had to replace some of the OEM parts that they say can be used. Not for an inexperienced person.

Don’t understand all the negative comments, I’m not a gunsmith and have not had any problems installing these systems and I’ve only got iuse of one hand. So far I’ve put them into two AR’s, one CZ Scorpion, a S&W MP22LR, Ruger Charger, and a standard 10/22 carbine. No problems with any of them but I did have to mess with the Scorpion to get what I considered a decent trigger pull. Highly recommend these triggers, in my opinion a much better choice than the Fostech versions. YMMV, of course.

Can’t help but smile from ripping through a 25 round magazine!!

Careful on the install only one area that was difficult the safety/selector detent

Highly recommend

I’ve had the trigger for a long time. I always wait to review things. It works perfect and it makes the 10/22 so fast. I love it.

Binary system is awesome only down fall is the two screws that screw on selector strip out. Would think as much money as they change for the product that the two screws would be made alot better than what they currently are.

I used quotes for simple in my title, because I had no idea what I was doing. I've never replaced a trigger and went straight to YouTube to learn how to install this one. It was challenging just because of the need to hold things in place w one hand while doing/inserting with the other. I almost got frustrated, but it wasn't that bad. Fast forward to the range:
I LOVE shooting this trigger. I have a 5.56 can on the rifle I installed this trigger on, which helps with the weight, negating the recoil rise a bit. Still, I usually only do a double tap/4 shots at a time to keep my aim steady.
That said, a Mag dump with this thing is way too much fun. ALMOST a "giggle switch".

Installation was not too complicated. I followed the instructions to the letter and this Binary Trigger functions as advertised and is a lot of fun. I replaced my Ruger BX match trigger with this Binary Trigger and although I liked the 2-1/2# pull match trigger better for semi-auto shooting, the 4-1/2# pull of the Binary is acceptable for most shooting and I like having the Binary "Fun" mode to play with at the range. Overall, not a bad trigger and lots of fun.

Finally, I got it working after a week of measuring and modifications to both trigger and trigger housing. I have an "empire" stamped aluminum trigger housing, original and 20ish years old. About an 8th of an inch had to be shaved off of the trigger housing internally, between the safty shaft and trigger mount pin. Also, another 8th inch from the inside rear of the housing, where the hammer return springs counter sinks. It was interfering with the 2nd hammer dropping in function check 7. The trigger assembly, safety selector rod ,and disconnect had to be polished. All were bured and felt like sand in a wet knife. Finally, trigger return spring had to be adjusted, tediously. If it doesn't feel smooth, as soon as the trigger pin install is done, start over. Overall, this is a "labor of love" kinda thing. I am mechanically inclined, well equipped with the tools and experience to get myself into trouble. Hope this helps someone
