    I will have one, but I've heard the trigger itself has a trash feel. Like worse than mil-spec. I won't let it sit in a gun that will be more than a "toy". I'm thinking that's what I'll put in my 17 Design IFLR.

    Again, that's only interweb stories. I haven't asked my 2 buddies how it feels......I just know it works :rofl:

    Me personally, the outcome. This won't be in gun that I need to be dependable/feel great. It's a "toy" :D

    Serious question - are any of the aftermarket AR triggers, drop in or otherwise, know for light strikes? (not talking about a bubba home spring job)

    I had a JMT saber 3.5 trigger that reviews said were know to have light strikes on steal cased ammo with harder primers. In my experience, that wasn't the case for me. I didn't have it long, probably 400-500 rds but never had that occur all with tulammo or wolf.

    I just got my 1st one(RA140) simply b/c it was on sale and I had some Optics bucks. It ended up being $83ish. I put it in my pistol lower and haven't even shot it. The only trigger I have any time with is my Elftmann 3-gun. It's an insane trigger. I just couldn't justify $275 for each trigger. I will eventually move the Elf to my SBR once it's setup.

    Finally got the .458 running nicely with cast lead to make it affordable to shoot.

    So I built a .450BM to join it. Big bore ARs are a stupid good time.

    I had some light primer strikes right after I put it in. I just couldn't figure it out.......so I had to take it to a gunsmith and let him adjust it. It's a much better trigger than I needed, but I built that particular rifle exactly how I wanted.

    This will be a fun project! Optics and mount finally came today. The mount is very substantial and has an RMR footprint on the 45's on the top of the rings. Optic looks crystal clear, reticle is easy to see and use, locking turrets.

    I like swampfox. I have a few of their red dots and that same arrowhead scope. Individual rings though.

    I’ve always been a Leupold fan but I got two of Swampfox’s Blade sights for other guns and have been thoroughly impressed with them. This also offered green illumination which I can see good. Can’t wait to get it mounted
