Another benefit of the Advanced Performance Trigger is the one-piece construction that gets rid of the hassle of trying to line up springs and pins during installation like other trigger systems. You simply just drop the trigger pack into the position and use the included KNS anti-rotation pins to securely fasten it to your gun. Standard trigger and hammer pins have the possibility of falling out during long strings of fire and these innovative pins completely negate that possibility. The last thing you want during competition or any high stress situation is a rifle without a functioning trigger.
Rise Armament is committed to quality and success, and you can see that in their weapons. All Rise parts are manufactured according to strict AS9100 and ISO9001 2008 certified procedures, and must pass stringent QA inspection before leaving their facility.

Great Triggers
by CK
Running this in a B&T APC9K build, and a .45 PCC AR build. Using this in ISSA (Steel Shooting) competition and have done very well. Looking at picking up a 3rd to replace the trigger in my AR build. Has been 100% reliable.
Crazy Fast
by T. On
I put the RA 535 in my Aero Precision M4E1 lower (bought in 2022). I had to drop it in at an angle while putting in the safety selector pin turned to the fire position. With an light torque on the set screws, it's in and rock solid. Note, if you're looking down your rifle stock to barrel, turn the set screws clockwise. Took it to the range today and WOW! It ripped so fast, everyone at the range stopped shooting and said wtf was that?! The range master is former Army with ground time in Afghanistan. I let him shoot it and he was super impressed with the 535.
Overall Amazing

This is the second Rise Ar-535 I have purchased. The first I installed in My AR Pistol in 5.56. I loved it so much I am put one in my Ar-10 in .308. My AR-10 has never run better. Super Fast break, Zero travel. SUPER EASY INSTALL. It also comes with Anti Walk Pins. Which is a 40 dollar value. Buy this trigger. You will not be disappointed
glass rod break, excellent trigger, good looker
by desertfox
Put this in a Colt 6945 and must say it is near the top of my list of AR triggers. Would purchase again from Primary Arms. I have amassed quite a few triggers of all makers for direct comparison. Would put this up with the ELF, almost. I normally prefer component to drop in but will gladly make an exception for this superb performer. Probably the best looking trigger of the bunch, IMOHO.
GREAT trigger

My first RISE trigger, and so far, it seems fantastic.
Amazing Trigger
by Jeff
Bought after watching many reviews and rankings where most ranked the RA-535 near the top. Most notably w/ it's short reset, crisp break and next to zero creep. I was not disappointed. Warning: your 1st few pulls will result in yelling "whew doggie", just like hunters cp. Comes w/ anti-walk pins that i changed the hardware to titanium socket head bolts. The only thing I'd say you may need to watch out for is it's footprint. It's rather large and may not fit in every FCP, especially if you're completing an 80% lower. Overall this is a phenomenal trigger, unique aggressive look and superior performance where it matters most imo.
RA-535
by Misfitprofessor -
I have purchased and used several of these triggers, I believe the problem people are seeing with high trigger pull weight is what happened to me on one of my builds. If you over tighten the K.N.S. pins it puts too much pressure on the cartridge and therefore causes binding and heavy trigger pull. JHO
Works in a fighting rifle too...
by Bear Collins
Excellent trigger, great build quality and function. If I was to be picky, I'd prefer a little texture on the trigger face but overall the trigger is so good I over looked that issue. Definitely recommend.
A Very Well Made Drop-In For Your Consideration
by MuchAlohaNui -
Looking for a precise, single-stage trigger? Consider the RA-535. For those of you toiling over the costs, the trigger INCLUDES anti-roll pins.
Installation: Small nylon hammer, torque wrench, brass guide pin, punch, patience. Installation while straight forward did require massaging and persuasion. Use caution...
Construction: The RA-535 is well made. Machining of the parts are exact. The housing, mechanism and trigger bow had zero discoloration or flaws. The trigger bow is a hybrid. This works because a flat bow can cause the finger to slide down the face to the guard. The RA-535 slight bow keeps the finger where it needs to be.
Feel: The RA-535 averages 3.57 lbs. per pull. Zero creep no matter how slowly I pull the trigger. There is zero play in the mechanism so pull and reset are crisp.
Summary: The RA-535 is an outstanding drop-in. The design is outstanding, the mechanism crisp and the feel is assuring. You will likely need a brass guide pin for installation.
Best Look, Feel and Performance at a great price point!
by BILL
I have 2 RISE ARM RA-535s, 2 ELF Tacticals, and several other AR Triggers, installed in standard ARs, and AR Pistols, and I absolutely LOVE the performance and the FEEL of the RISE RA-535. In MHO, the smooth, semi straight and "rounded" bare aluminum contour feels perfect on my finger, and it LOOKS GREAT as well. It is TRULY the best of all worlds! I Love Primary Arms as well, but I always shop around for the best prices on my RA-535s and they're definitely out there! Do your research...
