Geissele SSP Single Stage Trigger - SHOT Show 2017 Range Day

This video reviews the Geissele SSP (Single Stage Precision) flat trigger, specifically the 05483 model. The presenter, initially skeptical of Geissele due to past experiences with their two-stage triggers, found the SSP to be a significant improvement. The review covers the trigger's components, installation considerations, performance characteristics like break and reset, and trigger pull weight variations based on finger placement. It concludes that the SSP exceeded expectations, offering a clean break and positive reset, making it a recommended upgrade for those preferring single-stage triggers.

This review of the Geissele SSP single-stage trigger by Dave Tim from Guns and Tactics provides an in-depth look after approximately 3,000 rounds. The trigger is noted for its duty/combat focus, with a measured pull weight just under three pounds and a short reset. Despite a slight perceived creep when manipulated slowly, it breaks cleanly during rapid fire. The trigger has held up flawlessly with minimal wear, making it a recommended quality investment for AR-15 platforms.

This video provides a first look at the Geissele SSP Single Stage Precision Trigger. Instructor Dave Tim highlights its quality construction, including laser engraving and lot numbers for quality control. He compares it to traditional mil-spec triggers, noting the SSP's sear surface design. After installation, he performs a function check and initial dry fires, praising the crisp break and lack of creep, with a measured pull weight around 3 pounds. The trigger is available in both curved and straight bow configurations, retailing for $240 MSRP.

Timney Triggers has expanded its Calvin Elite Series with an AR-15 version, offering enhanced adjustability. This trigger features interchangeable shoes (knurled, curved, straight, straight with shelf) to accommodate different hand sizes and preferences. It boasts a 1.5 lb pull weight, a crisp break, and the fastest lock time in the industry, utilizing solid-state construction without set screws for improved reliability.

This review of the Springfield Armory Saint Victor 5.5-inch PDW highlights its compact nature and suitability for home defense or truck gun applications. The firearm utilizes Colt straight magazines and a direct blowback operating system, chambered in 9mm. Reviewers noted its single-stage trigger and acceptable accuracy at 25 yards, though recoil management and brace ergonomics were discussed as areas for potential improvement.

This review of the Austro-Hungarian Werndl 1873/77 "Extra Korps" highlights its upgrades over previous models, including a recessed hammer, improved single-stage trigger, and modified sights. The carbine is chambered in 11mm for black powder cartridges and features a compact, reinforced action with a semi-pistol grip, making it more manageable.

This video features a critique of a home defense AR-15 build by former Navy SEAL Jeff Gonzales. Key takeaways include the importance of a suppressor for indoor use, the critique of an overly complex sling, and recommendations for reliable optics. The discussion highlights the trade-offs of short-barreled rifles (SBRs) for home defense and emphasizes practical gear selection over complexity.
