Another MBT-2S installed.... Best $94 spent for sure. - mdewitt71 - 08-02-2018

Got my 3rd MBT trigger in the mail today.
This one is just as good as the previous two; 10 pull average:

Gotta be the best AR trigger setup under $99 around.

Shooting my 12" with the MBT-2S is very easy to group with, even though the short barreled guns are squirrely in the pocket.

I have one in my Lilja 17.6" Grendel, and my Stealth 2.0 of course.

For the money, you will not find a finer trigger on the market.

I agree..... and now with the reduced price till DEC, I might just have to buy #4 and #5 for my daughters ARs.

I need to upgrade my ar trigger. It's just a plain Jane psa trigger. It's quite gritty. These seem like the way to go.

I would call them about that. They generally don't charge until they ship. Unless they changed their policy.

ordered 13 JUL- shipped 30 JUL

My card was charged the day I made the orders; both times.

getting ready to make another one soon.....

They didn't charge me until it was shipped but I did the I can wait deal. It was 3 weeks

I just ordered mine. ��

I just ordered one as well, just yesterday. Guess I'lljust have to be patient. I'm not in too big of a rush. I'll just be swapping out a Guissele "Super Dynamic" trigger that I've been less than perfectly happy with.

Just ordered 1 as well to replace my basic Anderson trigger! As long as I have it by deer season I'll be happy!

I am going to get one to replace a Rise trigger. That will be #2

The Larue website says a 4.5lb pull. What gives? All of your triggers are pulling at under 3 pounds?


Another MBT-2S installed.... Best $94 spent for sure. - Kswhitetails - 08-09-2018

They’re adding both stages together. Mine have more like 1.5ld uptake, 2.1lb break. So about 4lbs total pull.

These last two trigger I bought..... Yes, both under 3LBS combined pull.
I do not think the builds I did last year were that low, cannot remember though.
I am sure I will order a couple more before Christmas.

Yup. That's pretty much the only way to look at it.

I ordered one myself last week, waiting patiently for it to be made mailed. And I have a Lyman scale like yours. I'll be testing mine as well once it's installed.

Your trigger came with two springs, right? One heavy, one "standard"? I'd test both. Per the product description:

"Each trigger comes with an additional "heavy" trigger spring that increases the pull weight to 6 lbs."

If I decided that 3# is too light (it would be for many situations and setups) then I would try the heavier spring. Might not turn out to be as high as 6# in the real world, but 4.5-5 would be good for general purpose.


Another MBT-2S installed.... Best $94 spent for sure. - Kswhitetails - 08-09-2018

They all did include the heavy spring. I've never thought it needed it. It's pretty easy to tell where the 1st stage stops.

And, for everyone who has bought a trigger, up until Christmas they are having a weekly drawing for their Ultimate Upper. I just won one.
