GUNS/RLTD Question About Binary Triggers

Do not buy anything that may be banned in the future unless the seller does not know who you are and pay with cash. When the communists decide to ban certain firearms and/or parts the FIRST thing they do is get the records of those who purchased them. If you use a credit card or have the item sent to you or give the seller your information they will turn it over to the unconstitutional batf.

Looking at the much longer stroke of the AR-10 bolt, I would think one could easily outrun it and have the hammer follow the bolt and cause a stoppage. One would have to cycle the trigger more slowly to assure proper functioning. Also, the recoil and muzzle flip of the '10 is much more pronounced than the '15 platform. A slower rate-of-fire would be an advantage in a firearm of considerable recoil and muzzle flip.
The AR 10 and AR 15 use the same FCG.

It may matter but I really doubt it. If in doubt contact the manufacturer.

I'd guess that binaries won't hit cyclic rates of more than 650 RPM.

That's what the M-60 ran at.

Dunno, it is a consideration tho.

I have no use for one....binary, not an M-60. :lol:

Looks like the WOT doesn’t have a semi-auto position. That makes it not something I’d not really consider except for a “zombie horde killer” gun.

Too many good drop-in conventional triggers out there these days, and I'd rather hit what I shoot at than just make noise. Cost is getting more reasonable on them too.

The KE comes in at 4 to 5 pounds, not too light for a 'using' AR and not the 2-3 pounds of a true target rifle trigger.

Trigger upgrades for the AR15 is almost an industry unto itself. There are enough options to fill a range bag, but without a doubt the easiest type to work with is the drop-in style, such as the KE Arms DMR trigger. One nice thing about this design is that the outer shell holds the hammer, trigger and disconnector together as a single unit. This design offers multiple advantages, including ease of installation and parts that are always held in proper alignment, even in home built or polymer lowers.///////snip

That sounds pretty nice. Especially at only $140.

I was listening to Kyle Lamb's podcast a few weeks back. He was talking about triggers. He was talking about SF guys having trouble with the current favorite brand doubling on them. He wouldn't say but I'm guessing it was the brand starting with G. I have several of the SSAs and never had a problem, maybe QC is slipping.

He mentioned the LaRue MBT as being a decent trigger. You can get them as single or two stage, straight or curved bow, $118. I picked up a straight two stage, but haven't shot it yet.

On some things, I tend to stick with original design.

The stock configuration, cleaned and polished PSA brand triggers seem to do what I need.

I agree with you 100%. Up until recently all of my firearms had OEM triggers. I do take them to the gunsmith for polishing etc. And that is a whole lot less money than expensive triggers.

I mean really, you have an AR that is configured for CQB that you are not going to do more than punch full sized targets at 100 yards or less then you drop in a $200 target trigger that the rifle will never give you a performance increase for the cost?

Cost vs benefit!

Yes, I have an AR that is configured for long range, up to 600 yards. The trigger is still mil-spec but has been cleaned up by the gunsmith. I have shot several rifles that were almost set up as well and had expensive triggers in them that I still shot the mil-spec better. And, parts are easy to get when something breaks. And it will break.

I have another that is set up for CQB. I have had this rifle for 10 years and it always had a mil-spec trigger. I did recently dropped in a Franklin binary only for the purpose that if I needed double taps post SHTF it is smoother at it than a regular trigger. I don't anticipate ever doing a mag dump out of it except just for giggles.

Buying the latest and greatest whiz bang doodad is what the firearms industry lives on. And yeah, I still have a toe in that business. Think long and hard before you spend that $3-400. That will buy ammo, spare parts, and other things that you will need more in the real world to come to you soon.
