Details

The CMC Triggers Competition trigger delivers a genuinely crisp 2.5 lb single-stage pull with almost no take-up and an extremely short reset, giving 3-gun and competition shooters fast, precise trigger control.

Features:

  • Single-stage 2.5 lb pull that breaks cleanly with minimal take-up
  • Non-adjustable curved trigger bow for consistent, reliable trigger control
  • Drop-in, one-piece design machined from 8620 alloy steel
  • Installs with mil-spec .154" trigger pins
  • Compatible with both AR-15 and AR-10 platform rifles
  • Backed by CMC's 100% manufacturer's lifetime warranty


The self-contained 8620 alloy steel housing protects the internal components from dirt, debris, and carbon buildup, letting shooters drop the entire trigger group in and install the mil-spec pins in seconds rather than assembling individual fire control parts by hand.

This light, single-stage trigger suits 3-gun competition specifically, where a fast, crisp break helps with quick, close-quarters shooting while remaining smooth enough for precise long-range hits.

Note: trigger pull weights are approximate and may vary slightly between rifles.

With roots in aerospace manufacturing, CMC Triggers is best known for producing the original drop-in precision trigger for the AR-15/AR-10 platform, built for law enforcement, military, and civilian use. That reliability shows up range trip after range trip, build after build.

Exceeded my expectations!

by

This trigger far exceeded my expectations. It breaks like glass right at two pounds with no creep.

Excellent

by

I took out a 3.5 lb trigger which was good to install this unit.
Easily installed and measured 2.5 lbs with my gauge as advertised. Safety works without modification. This trigger assembly rivals a good bolt gun unit. Very crisp let off. Using this in a 16” 300 BO and the difference is quite noticeable.

Excellent Trigger at a Very Reasonable Price

To improve my AR-15 I first bought a 3.5 lb. Timney trigger and was impressed by the reduced pull and creep compared to the original, mil spec trigger......but after a while, the pull and creep became bothersome, so I took a chance on this 2.5 lb. CMC trigger. Upon arrival, I was initially disappointed by its appearance, using sheet metal instead of machined billet aluminum, and by the inability to eliminate some movement due to the lack of set screws to lock it in place. I used a couple layers of black electrical tape on the bottom to take up slack, installed it with the pin-retaining side screws, and headed to the range. What an improvement !! Zero creep, noticeably reduced trigger pull (measured at about 2.75 lbs.) and improved accuracy. I strongly recommend this trigger to anyone who wants excellent performance at a very reasonable price......and who doesn't ?

Ok

I just put this trigger in the rifle and may need to break in some. The break is nice and clean and crisp, no take up. The reset is what I find to be lacking. It is very gritty and long. I have a Davidson defense drop in 3.0 pound trigger that has a much better reset than this trigger and is far cheaper. I am hoping that after some time the gritty reset resolves itself.

Another Good Trigger.

I didn't have one of these CMC 2.5 lb. triggers with the curved bow, so when Primary Arms put them on sale the other day, I ordered one of these and also another one of the #90503 trigger that has the straight bow. Both icredibly smooth predictable triggers.

Great Price Point with High Quality.

Buy far one of my favorite triggers and got it on sale for another amazing deal from Primary Arms. Originally put it in an AR-10 and got consistent result with it. Now it is in a precision AR-15, 24 inch heavy barrel. Love it.

Bought it and will buy more as soon as they go on sale

Fantastic trigger. Very crisp, very consistent, very easy to install, and I bought it on sale from primary arms so I got a terrific deal. Installed in an aero precision m5 .308 lower.

Great trigger

Love this trigger. Just completed and functioned a build with this trigger (Ruger lower, Aero upper, BCA 20in 1:8 SS barrel). One hole accuracy at 50 yards (didn't go out further due to weather and time constraints) with SSA 77g ammo. Trigger was a big part of this. Great feel. Reminds me of my Russian biathlon 22. Highly recommended.

Almost zero movement.

by

I have two of these triggers and, in my not so humble opinion, they're some of the best out there. Surprisingly, the description on the website's advertisement is accurate. The take-up is almost non-existent, and there is no over-travel. It takes a very steady hand, and an extremely slow trigger pull to notice any movement at all, frankly. When training, or shooting a 3-gun stage, you won't notice any trigger movement at all...

Excellent trigger

Excellent trigger; works very well; significant improvement in accuracy. Prefer it to my considerably more expensive Geissele SSA-E trigger.
