Reviews & Ratings for KE Arms AR-15 SLT-1 Sear Link Technology Trigger, Includes Ambidextrous Safety Selector — 2 reviews — Page 1

I initially gave this trigger a 5 star review. But after about 2,500 rounds this trigger gave me lots of problems. I got several light primer strikes with Federal XM193 ammo and PPU M193. I found this annoying but kept using the trigger. I then started getting hammer follow where the trigger would not lock back but there would be a fresh round chambered. Again this was annoying but I kept using it. Then I started getting fully automatic 2 round burst where the hammer follow would actually fire the next round. And then after the 2 round burst the hammer would not be locked back and there would be a fresh round in the chamber. The trigger was not dirty. These incidents happened over several range sessions and I cleaned it very thoroughly after each session. I have since removed the trigger and gone with another brand. I cannot trust this trigger. This is a shame because I really liked it and gave it 5 stars at first. Between the light primer strikes and failing to lock back trying to go full auto I cannot recommend this product. It is unreliable and even dangerous.

In case anybody was wondering how this trigger feels, it has zero take up. It doesn't budge even a fraction of an inch until it breaks. Totally firm with no wiggle or slop and no travel before the break. I don't have a scale but I would estimate the trigger pull is close to the advertised ~4 to 5 lbs. Reset is a nice short tactile click. Safety is also nice and smooth with a nice click into both positions but also not too hard to move.
