The ALG Defense Advanced Combat Trigger (ACT) is a premium upgrade for AR-15 rifles, designed for shooters seeking the trusted reliability of a mil-spec trigger with enhanced smoothness, sharpness, and corrosion resistance. Featuring a pull weight above 5.5 lbs to meet M4/M16 military specs, the ACT improves upon standard triggers with HardLubing—ALG's advanced electroless nickel plating process using Boron or Teflon to deliver superior wear resistance, low friction, and excellent corrosion protection. Ideal for law enforcement, duty use, or value-conscious builders, the ACT maintains stock geometry for consistent function while offering a refined single-stage trigger experience.

- Full-force hammer spring ensures reliable ignition with all ammo types
- Corrosion-resistant mil-spec springs

Amazing for the regular shooter on a budget.
by RH
I think this trigger is great for weekend and light / starting competition shooters. The price point is great, and the trigger is outstanding in quality compared to any trigger that comes with an affordable lower parts kit.
Perfect Combat Trigger
by Robert R.
I replaced the stock trigger on my DPMS lower with the ALG Combat trigger. The original stock trigger was a typical of most stock triggers, breaking at 6.4-6.6 lbs with plenty of creep and grittiness. What a difference! This ALG combat trigger breaks sharply and consistently at 6.0 lbs (Wheeler trigger gauge). Construction quality seems very high. Installation is very easy and quick following the supplied instructions.
What a nice trigger!
by Kokopelli
I really like this trigger. It's what all standard AR triggers should feel like. A perfect price point as well.. Cheers.. Ron
Great trigger, great price
by Barack Insane Hussein Nobama
I purchased this trigger for a Spikes lower/BCM upper build. What drew me in was the low price and the great reputation, since ALG Defense is a sister-company of Geissele Automatics. The quality and craftsmanship of this trigger group is excellent. The trigger pull is similar to breaking a thin candy cane: There is no slack or grittiness. I will be putting this trigger group in the rest of my ARs.
Superb Upgrade
by Razor3203
I purchased the ALG Defense Combat Trigger as a replacement for my Colt carbine. I wanted to maintain a mil spec trigger without the creep and grit of the factory offering. The ALG Defense Combat Trigger was definitely an upgrade over the factory unit and the price was reasonable. I will be recommending this trigger to others.

I needed something better than the Spikes stock trigger. I took a chance on this one and I am totally satisfied with it. There is no creep or grittiness, it is crisp and smooth. Fast shipping, Thanks Primary Arms!
Most economical AR trigger out there!
by Chijon
I love these things...have built 6 or 7 AR15 and AR10 rifles with them. Now they have the purple 4.5lb spring in the package, which is an outstanding bonus aND same price as the original kits. I seriously think anything else is overrated unless you are building a race gun that will NOT BE USED for defense/combat.
