Geissele Super 700 discontinued?

[Turpentine21]

Geissele told me (roughly speaking) they were undergoing engineering redesign to make them easier to manufacturer and had no ETA or schedule for that.

I interpreted the tone to be 'they were kind of a pain to make, so we aren't making any more until we redesign them, which isn't a huge priority.'

This, they told me the exact same thing. They wanted to make an easier to produce design and make the trigger a bit simpler from my understanding. I have the Super 700 and it is a very good trigger. I'm not sure it is any better than my Triggertech two stage but they are both high quality units. I only shoot two stage triggers and these are certainly good ones.

It’s extremely reliable, it’s extremely consistent, it goes down to 4oz, it has the least take up of any trigger regardless of price, and smoothest break, has multiple trigger shoe options. All the reasons why I’m wondering why people are looking at something else and probably why they’re being discontinued

Have you not heard of the many triggertech failures and warranty replacements? Are you aware of this?

TriggerTech Failures? Hang fires?

This is an exploratory thread to try and understand the scope of an issue we've been having with TT triggers. Is it an isolated issue, or is it more widespread? First off, I'll say I love me some Trigger Tech triggers. I love the ease of install/timing, and I love how they feel when they are...

I’ve read that the super 700 is [edit: very similar or based on the mk13 trigger which was] the only 700 pattern trigger to pass Crane’s drop test and is reportedly much less failure prone than most 700 triggers. To answer your question, that’s why I got the one I have for a hunting rifle over a triggertech.

No, it was the MK13 marked Geissele trigger.

No, it was the MK13 marked Geissele trigger.

That's right. How different was that from the super 700 trigger?

That I’m not sure. I have the spec sheet for the MK13 MOD 7
