wall is defined at the advertised 3 lbs, break is straight and repeatable. reset is short and tactile, you can feel it with a closed grip. for a comp gun this is the right trigger
Timney AR-15 competition trigger at 3 pounds breaks like glass. Self-contained cassette drops in any milspec receiver with a .154 pin set. No tinkering required. Worth the cost over a basic mil-spec setup.
3 lb single stage, drop in module style. pull weight is dead on my Lyman digital, no break in needed to get there. .154 pin size fits mil spec lowers. for competition rifles this is a benchmark
Timney 3lb single stage trigger has a positive audible reset that you can feel without looking down. Self contained cassette drops in any milspec receiver. Break is clean with no creep. Drops weight from typical mil-spec by a meaningful amount.
