January 27, 201412 yr Author I've heard great things about these triggers. I've been playing with a 24C and I really like being able to dial the pull weight in. Reset feels similar to a Geissele S3G with less overtravel. Just as crisp of a break if not more so too. The shoe took some getting used to but after having played with it a bit, I don't want to use the trigger without it as I feel like I have more control with it.
January 27, 201412 yr I've been wanting to upgrade the stock trigger in my AR for a while and have been between the Geissele SD-E and the Hiperfire 24E. I've been leaning towards the tried and trusted Geissele. Have any experience on these?
January 28, 201412 yr Author I've been wanting to upgrade the stock trigger in my AR for a while and have been between the Geissele SD-E and the Hiperfire 24E. I've been leaning towards the tried and trusted Geissele. Have any experience on these? Both are good triggers. However, the SD-E is a two stage while the 24E is a single stage. Big difference right off the bat. Both have zero creep, a mark of a good trigger. The 24E can be tuned by the user to different pull weights by swapping out the provided springs. The reset on the 24E feels shorter to me. Both are geared toward precision shooting and I think the biggest factor is going to be if you want a single stage or a two stage trigger.

Not to detract from the point of this thread: what's the application for a single vs a two stage trigger? My understanding of the two stage was that it was intended as a combat trigger so it requires a more deliberate press. Isn't that why we keep our fingers off the trigger, though?

My understanding of the two stage was that it was intended as a combat trigger so it requires a more deliberate press. Isn't that why we keep our fingers off the trigger, though? Two stage is beneficial if you want to "prep" your trigger rather than pull straight through. I used to be a two-stage only shooter but have since transitioned to single stage triggers. I find that a single stage without creep and a super crisp break is a better general purpose trigger that doesn't sacrifice precision once you learn the trigger.
January 29, 201412 yr I find two stage to be more beneficial to bench rest shooting than anything else. High power matches too.

I'm still very much a novice to rifle platforms, so I have the odd advantage of not being used to one style or the other. I feel like the single stage trigger makes more sense to me and how my brain works. I still have time to decide. Thanks for the help.

I feel like the single stage trigger makes more sense to me and how my brain works. I still have time to decide. Thanks for the help. I'd say it's easier to transition from a single stage to a two stage than vice versa. When you go from a two stage to a single stage, you have to recondition yourself to no longer expect that stop (end of first stage, beginning of second stage) and pull through it.
