    Better to ask what I have not done.
    :sorry:



    Back on topic, any one ever have a geissele ssa-e turn into a super hard pull? Like 15-20lbs trigger pull?

    Put it in a new lower and worked fine, then when test firing it started doing this on the 5th round on, dropped it into a diffrent lower that also had an SSA-e in it and did the same thing, :facepalm:

    Any idea what caused it to be out of wack? Not worried about them not doing anything about it, just thought it was strange. The other 4 are still rocking anc cocking by the way :rofl:

    Careful there Henny Penny. The sky's not falling. Somebody just copy & pasted some facts. I know it's triggering, but I think we'll all be okay. :thumbsup:

    Never heard of that. But if its doing it in different lowers I'd give Geissele a call and see what they say. I only have one SSA-E but never had it do anything other than what its supposed to do

    Need some assistance, so I bought an NC star quad rail and trying to put it on. But the rear isn't wanting to come together. I've made sure the gas tube is in the slot and the beveled end of the rail is going into the delta ring. It seems like it's hanging up on the barrel nut. The back of the rail should snug up like the front is correct?

    Did you pop a primer that is now lodged in the trigger mechanism?

    Like Jim Beam said above, try wiggling it around a bit to find the sweet spot. You may have to tweak the barrel nut a little.

    something is binding or not seated properly...15-20 is way too much for a trigger pull. Have you taken it apart?

    Put the muzzle ends in first then squeeze the bottom end together. Make sure it's centered with the gas tube.

    I would imagine, I haven't touched it it's just how it came from the factory. The gun hasn't even be fired yet

    What red dot + 3x setup is that? Vortex?

    This is a video I saw how to install the Magpul SL handrail that many had trouble with. Im not sure if it is anything like the one you have, but it may help as i see others describing the same process to install yours as the Magpul one.
