Overview

  • A 4.5 lb. pull built for defense — It’s the pull weight many shooters want on a self-defense or duty rifle, plus none of the grit, slack, or heaviness of a mil-spec trigger. 
  • Crisp break, no take-up — With NoWay Take-Up™, trigger movement begins right at the sear. There’s no slack to pull through, so the pull is short and predictable shot after shot, and your groups tighten. 
  • A reset you can feel and hear — The Quik-Klik™ reset is short, tactile, and audible. The trigger’s ready again after a fraction of the travel, so your follow-up shots come faster. 
  • In and running in under a minute — The Slide-and-Snap™ install slides into your lower and locks in place with anti-walk and anti-rotation pins built into the housing. No tools, no setscrews, no loose hardware, and often no need to remove the grip or safety selector. 
  • Flat or curved, your call — Comes with your choice of black blade face, flat or curved. The flat blade face has a subtle index at the bottom that keeps your finger in the same spot every shot. The curved blade face gives your finger a broad, stable platform. Both run wide, gloved or bare-handed. 
  • Locked on, swaps in seconds — Patent-pending TorLok™ technology secures the blade face with a mechanical lock and a magnet, so it stays put. When you want a different feel or color, you can change it out in seconds with no tools. Every RISE Interchangeable Blade Face fits. 
  • Built to run hard — Heavy-Hit™ hardened S7 tool steel, a durable black nitride finish, and a housing machined from a solid block of 6061 aluminum. Backed by our Lifetime Warranty and the RISE More-Bang-for-Your-Buck Performance Guarantee. 

Additional Features: 

  • Heavy-Hit Hardening — After machining, the S7 tool steel internals are heat-treated to extreme hardness. That means solid hammer strikes and parts that resist wear over thousands of rounds. 
  • Black Nitride Finish — A diffusion process that hardens the surface of the steel internals and resists wear and corrosion, so the trigger keeps its feel and cleans up easily. 
  • 6061 Aluminum Housing — Machined from a solid block of 6061 aluminum rather than stamped and bent from sheet steel. Lighter, stronger, and it won’t bend or torque under hard use. 
  • Made in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma — Designed, precision-machined to aerospace tolerances, and assembled in the USA, and individually inspected before it ships. 
  • Lifetime Warranty and Performance Guarantee — Backed by our Lifetime Manufacturing Warranty and the RISE More-Bang-for-Your-Buck Performance Guarantee. If it doesn’t deliver no take-up, a crisp break, and a fast, tactile reset, we’ll buy it back.

Reviews

Built for the Moment That Matters

A rifle for self-defense or duty demands a trigger that responds with confidence and consistency.

The press should feel positive and deliberate, putting every shot under your control.

That’s exactly what the Blitz Defense G2 delivers.

This single-stage Slide-and-Snap AR trigger features a 4.5 lb. pull and zero take-up before the break.

It delivers a crisp break and a short reset you can feel and hear.

Every press feels consistent, while the short reset keeps follow-up shots fast.

Fast, Simple Installation

Installing the Blitz Defense G2 takes minimal time and effort.

Anti-walk and anti-rotation pins come built into the housing, eliminating loose parts and additional tools.

Simply squeeze the pins, slide the trigger into your lower, and let the pins seat themselves.

Then, snap on the blade face, and you’re ready to go.

Most installations take less than a minute, often without removing the grip or safety selector.

Built for Hard Use

The Blitz Defense G2 stands ready for the rifles you depend on every day.

That includes your home-defense carbine, patrol rifle, or truck gun.

Heavy-Hit™ hardened S7 tool steel internals deliver consistent performance through thousands of rounds.

Additionally, the durable black nitride finish helps protect against corrosion and wear.

The housing starts with a solid block of 6061 aluminum.

We machine that block into a rigid housing instead of stamping sheet steel.

As a result, the housing resists bending and torque during demanding use.

Choose Your Blade Face

You can choose between flat and curved blade faces.

The flat blade face offers a wide profile with smooth, rounded edges.

A subtle index at the bottom helps keep your finger positioned consistently.

Meanwhile, the curved blade face provides a broad, stable platform for a comfortable, controlled pull.

Both blade faces feature a wider design for secure control with or without gloves.

If you’ve used an RA-434 HPT, the flat blade face will feel familiar.

The curved blade face draws inspiration from the original Blitz G1.

Swap Blade Faces in Seconds

The blade face attaches to the blade base using patent-pending TorLok™ technology.

This mechanical locking system gains additional security through magnetic reinforcement.

As a result, the blade face stays firmly attached during hard use.

When you want a different feel or color, you can swap blade faces within seconds.

You don’t need tools or another trigger.

Every RISE Interchangeable Blade Face fits the Blitz Defense G2.

Therefore, you can change your setup later without purchasing another trigger.

Built in Oklahoma. Backed for Life.

RISE manufactures the Blitz Defense G2 in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma.
