Bump for later read
I’m having trouble controlling the size of groups.>>>>>>>>>>>
What size are your groups at 100 yards?
It could be your barrel. Or your ammo.
But then if you alter the trigger you might mistakenly have a fully automatic weapon....Oooooops! :-)
Gun control . The steady hand! :-)
There are numerous triggers for sale. I have had several. One of my favorites is the Rock River match trigger. It’s reasonably priced,not as fancy or expensive as many of them out there, but does a good job for the money.
Don’t change the trigger setting. Just buy a couple more ARs. Then you would have a variety of trigger settings to choose from.
“...controlling the size of groups”
When the large anti-truth, anti-freedom, anti-individual, anti-life groups knock on your door for your guns, take out as many as you can.
“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.” - Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
Go to a 2-stage like the Geissele

They help greatly.
Try using your middle finger... More central to the hand and better to flip, er, flick faster
The Constitution requires Congress to provide for the arming and training of the militia. Since Congress ALWAYS follows the Constitution, I assume you simply make your Congressperson aware of your AR’s stiff trigger pull, and he/she/it will dispatch the BATFE armorer to tune her up. Since it’s an election year, they might bring some free cigars, whiskey, and C4 to go with that.
Any good gunsmith can do a trigger-job for you in 20 min. or so........
Mine (or the one I used to have before the boat accident) is about a sweet 2 lbs........after my gunsmith friend did it in my own shop before my very eyes.......
Before you spend a lot of money on a new trigger assembly, try a set of the JP yellow hammer and trigger springs.
For about 100 bucks, you can get a high quality trigger. You need to decide if you want a single stage or 2 stage trigger. whatever you decide, you will be happier if all your rifles have a similar trigger. Jumping from a single stage to a 2 stage and back on a regular basis is an exercise in frustration.
As far as a 2 stage, Rock River is quality equipment, and not expensive. For single stage, the stock trigger can be adjusted to give good service, but a drop in assy will give a cleaner break.
A 2” 100yd group on a stock rifle with non-premium ammo is quite good, and you might not see measurable improvement with just a trigger change.
The Wilson Combat 2 stage is excellent!
If you don’t have it, change out to a free float hand guard. That does wonders for tightening groups.
Geissele SSA or SSA-E.
Puts it at 3.5lbs on the second stage.
ROFLMAO.
perfect.
2 in. Groups,
I’d be happy with 2ft.

With good reloads, my Gen II Recon shot .43”, .47”, and .74” at 100 yds after I installed a hypertouch EDT3 from Joe Bob outfitters. It would shoot about 1” before the trigger swap.
