Best AR Trigger you can buy

by Matt, Verified Owner from IN, United States Written on August 30, 2025
The only trigger I’ll run on my ARs. Break is unbelievably clean and the pull weight of the second stage is perfection. Not to mention how easy these are to install. 5-10 minutes tops.

Just Awesome!

by HamBone, Verified Owner from GA, United States Written on August 3, 2025
This Trigger is Excellent!! I was worried it might be too light but it’s really just right. The 1st stage it just enough if you are use to MiLSpec. And as soon as you think to pull the Trigger it’s a done deal! I also have the SD-C which Great but this SSAE-X is a NAIL DRIVER!!

Geissele SSA-E C trigger

by Robert Cook, Verified Owner from IN, United States Written on April 22, 2025
Received the trigger in a very timely manner, and at a very good price!! Immediately removed CMC trigger from AR and installed this one when I got home from work. Install was relatively easy and instructions were straightforward within the next couple of days. I took it to my range that stretches 400 yards to test it out. Noticed immediately that the new trigger was so much better and put my groups at well under one MOA at 100 yards. Will most definitely be purchasing a couple of more for my other rifles. I do highly recommend trigger to anyone experienced or inexperienced shooting. If you are inexperienced, be very careful because the .9 pound second stage is extremely like.

Good but save the money

by Dalton Atwood, from OH, United States Written on April 4, 2025
Don't get me wrong, it's a great trigger, but you can definitely get almost the same for less.

The Larue 2S and PSA's new sabre 2S are about 90-95% of what this trigger is. I can buy 3 sabre triggers for the price of this and be perfectly happy with the outcome.

Yes this does have a slight more crispy break and more consistent weight of pull per each stage, but its not worth the jump in price. I have about 6k rounds on this trigger and close to 10k on the sabre trigger. Both feel great, yet one is a fraction of the price.
Pros:
  • Looks & Feels Great
  • Reliability and quality
Cons:
  • price
Would recommend: Yes

WORTH EVERY PENNY

by Ricky, Verified Owner from FL, United States Written on April 1, 2025
You ever press a trigger so smooth it feels like the gun whispers "I got you" before sending freedom downrange? That’s the Geissele SSA-E X with the Lightning Bow Trigger.

The first stage is like the warm-up act at a rock concert—smooth, light, and just enough to get you excited. Then, BOOM, the second stage breaks like a high school romance—sharp, clean, and no drama. Plus, it makes you feel fancy—like your trigger finger just got a first-class upgrade.

I swear, with this thing installed, my rifle started treating me better. My groups tightened up. My confidence went up. Even my dog started respecting me more. Bottom line: If you want a trigger that makes every shot feel like a chef’s kiss, this is the one. Just be prepared for your buddies to suddenly "need to try it" every range trip.

Amazing trigger

by KW, Verified Owner from OR, United States Written on February 15, 2025
This is my 5th Geisselle trigger and I believe it is the best one yet. So light and crisp. Very predictable. I can never go back to mil-spec again.

Not the same as alg

by Morty, Verified Owner from WI, United States Written on December 14, 2024
Fairly dissapointed this trigger bow is not the same curvature nor mount angle as the alg ak. imo save your money and get the regular ssae as this is basically a flat bow and also feels slighlty heavier somehow than my regular ssae. Geissele was seemingly not to caring about it either when i messaged them about this issue so probably will go larue in the future for that, otherwise a good trigger and optics planet was great.
Pros:
  • Light crisp break
Cons:
  • Flat bow
Would recommend: No
