Anyone KNOW for sure which AR trigger has the fastest lock time? A list of triggers and their lock times would be great if anyone has it.
i could be wrong, but i think the "hi-speed" line is a 2-stage match trigger with a decent lock time. the 3gun trigger is the "Super dynamic" line

Wow, thanks for the insight. As a former SDM instructor with nearly 30 years of shooting experience, I've never heard that before! Or maybe I have... Based on your advice, I'm guessing you'd recommend the fully parkerized Oly trigger group? You know, with sandpaper-like engagement surfaces that can't be polished? As for ammo, I have more than I can use. I hand load and reload too.Practice will overcome the fastest and the bestis, and mostis every time. Become proficient with what you have and you will have more money for ammo to practice with...chris3
Can you point me in the direction of a list of numbers?Correct. The Hi-Speed is really intended for High-Power rifle competition, not 3-gun or other action shooting, although you could use it for that if you wanted to. The Geissele 3-gun triggers are the Super 3 Gun and Super Dynamic 3 Gun, which differ only in the shape of the trigger bow and the name. Both are a quasi-single stage with a short light pull and short reset. They are not faster than the SSA or SSA-E in terms of lock time.
I use the SSA and SD3, both are great. I have not used the Hi-Speed.
I heard the 3G had the fastest PUBLISHED lock time, but I can't find proof.
But for action type shooting and 3G matches (which I'd like to get into soon) I really like that 3G trigger. This rifle will also be a HD rifle, and I'd like to be able reach out and touch something with it too. Sort of jack of all trades as it were. Long range precision shooting would not be the norm for this rifle. I may do it, but that isn't the purpose.
Anybody see a definite advantage using the SD-3G over the others for this purpose? I like the fact that it feels like a 1 stage, that seems quicker to me. I guess based on this, the lock time isn't as much an issue, but I'd still like to know who has the all-time record (I'd like to use it in my Grendel, but may just end up using the hi-speed).
Man, I really don't hope that some newb doesn't stumble across this thread and get it in his head that he needs to be chasing lock times. I very seriously doubt that the difference in lock times between the fastest triggers and the slowest is really appreciable.
Jesus... $280 for a trigger.... Thats over half the cost of my AR.
