njJoniGuy 2,133 Posted September 10, 2012 From the Production Supervisor at Geissele, who is also a personal friend and a fellow High Power competitor: This Wednesday at 9:00 on the Discovery Channel they will be airing the episode “The Gun that killed Osama.” The gun will feature our Geissele SSF. I am told that Chris Kyle (Navy Seal) speaks quite a bit about how much he likes the trigger. They will also show the trigger. However, the final editors took out all the places that Geissele was mentioned by name. I am told that we are free to tell people to watch and that it is our trigger that was used. So go ahead and pass the word for people to watch this Wednesday night. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wojo 98 Posted September 11, 2012 Been on the fence about these triggers. This speaks to me. Whatever is bought via GSA for the masses I stay away from. If it is used by our Elite Warriors, I mean SF types (not some tool of a civilian contractor variety), I always give it a serious consideration. The best can be provided by a specialty procurement process allowed by the US, or personal funds which happens more then you would think. Which really sucks. Our US Representatives tend to get top shelf everything at our dime, and our guys working just above Food Stamp level (if they have kids), have to dig into their own pockets for the right equipment.

DbleTrouble 8 Posted September 11, 2012 Thanks for the heads up. I'm looking forward to watching the show. Geissele triggers are amazing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Holeshot 3 Posted September 11, 2012 "Operators" have been using Geissele SSA triggers in combat for a few years now, not just the Navy Seals. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
quikz 34 Posted September 12, 2012 After a trillion dollars spent to hunt this Osama guy... Here we have the rifle that killed Osama. Yet it, even in its civilian form (MR556) which is assembled in New Hampshire, is banned in NJ. What A Shame. http://www.usnews.com/news/washington-whispers/articles/2011/05/11/the-gun-that-killed-osama-bin-laden-revealed Proud I have 4 Hk's.

ChrisJM981 924 Posted September 12, 2012 I was impressed with the pull on the Geissele triggers I fondled at the NRA convention in Pittsburgh last year. Must better feel than the Timney. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
