Awesome!

This trigger has completely transformed my rifle. It’s a super precision piece of very high quality. Super quick reset, almost no noticeable takeup and it breaks perfectly. Big solid hammer too. It mounts as solidly in your receiver with the lock screws. The anti-walk pins are a great addition. My accuracy has improved quite a bit by not trying to wrestle with a milspec trigger anymore. And just look at it…the quality is top notch and this is a lifer part.. I’m going to put one in my new rifle as well.

Thank You Guys!
