I have a "velocity" drop in trigger. 3# pull. Cheaper then all the big name brands. Have 2 M+ rounds thru it. Love it

 

[meowskiz]

Oh, and price is a factor.
Thanks shaker I'll check it out

JP makes a light spring for the stock triggers.

There is you tube videos on smoothing out the trigger if price is a big factor.
My vote for after market if the Chip McCormick drop in About $180+- and it is smooth and light.3#s I guess

Hmm idk about risking ftf's with a spring change.. but yeah those are some good ones I'll have to check out... Thanks

I also have a velocity trigger in one of my ar it's a 3# and it has a nice clean pull. But my other ar has a cmc 2 stage 2&2 trigger and it's by far the best trigger I've had, but it is pricey at around $217.

I have bought 9 of these triggers. For the money there is nothing else that comes close. I prefer them to several I have that cost three times as much.

I would jump though, I doubt this $105 promo will last much longer.

Nice. Been looking to replace the 7# trigger on my thumper. That's a heck of a good price. Got one ordered.

I have the JP adjustable trigger, at +- $110 it is a good value on a great adjustable single stage trigger. I wouldn't bother with the JP spring kit on a stock trigger though, I tried it on one and couldn't tell a significant difference over the stock springs. FWIW, a little polishing and spring lightening is a pretty good cheap way to go for a plinking gun.

JP offers what called a "Reliability set" that has a little stronger hammer spring, I've never had a FTF...

lots of good leads, thanks everyone
I think now I'm looking for a 2 stage for under 150 there are far fewer options than when I started.
I'll post a brief review here whenever I decide

I have had great luck with my Geissele ssa-e but it is a little pricy, they do make the g2s which goes for about 165 if budget is tight.

 

[DirectDrive]

The G2S would fit the OP's requirement.
I've seen them on sale for as low as $110.
Don't appear to be on sale now.

Keep in mind that most of the drop-n cassette type triggers cannot retain standard pins.
You have to be cool with E-clips, buttonheads, dogbones, etc on the outside of your receiver.

G2S is not a cassette type.
It installs like the standard, mil spec trigger.
