Larue MBT-2s Trigger

[TexPatriot]

I used a JP (red/yellow) spring kit for a 3.5 break with my MBT for about $11 it’s a must.

Could you be more specific? I looked at JP's site and couldn't find a red/yellow kit.
Also, most kit they have says you must use JP trigger parts to see any improvement.

Have you experienced any FTF due to light primer strikes?

Thx., TP

I have one on my Grendel AR

The red/yellow kit is called " JP Reliability Enhanced Kit", JPS3.5T. Some users have reported light strike with this combo.

I've used the "JP Tactical Spring Kit", JPS4.0 for years without issue. It works very well with ALG QMS/ACT trigger.

I just got 2 of the mbt2s’ in the other day. Before even receiving them I knew they would be a “decent“ trigger but they were more appealing to me because of the price and knowing it would be quality but might not feel as good as a Geiselle.. got one installed in a lower and I am definitely digging it for the price. Before installing it I inspected it rather closely and was even more glad about my decision based on the obvious quality of machining.. I don’t regret the decision at all and the second one I bought will be kept in the package as a spare for when/if my rra 2 stage gives up on me.. btw, I do have a Geiselle NM in another ar but it is in a different class of triggers.

Yes I’ve had some light strikes on Mil spec ammo and I use the LaRue factory springs in my rifles that I shoot mil spec ammo with, but my LaRue 6.5 CM I only shoot Hornady hunting/match Ammo Out of it and zero problems, But if your going to shoot every kind of ammo out of your rifle go with Stackon212’s JPS4.0 kit suggestion.

It is an excellent trigger, my buddy has one on each of his ARs. He is very happy, for the price it cant be beat!

I think the Larue compares very well to Giessele Super Dynamic Combat I’ve had for some time and for the price it’s hard to beat.

I had a Geissele SSA in my SPR and thought it was a great trigger. Then I bought an MBT-2S for my Grendel build and thought it was pretty dang good, too. So I sold the SSA to fund 2 more MBT-2S. Now that they have a flat-bow version, I think I'll be buying another soon.

Funny this thread came back I have one due here any day now. Wanted a Geiselle but too poor

 

[hellishot]

All this talk of how this trigger is comparable to the Geissele SSA-E is peaking my curiosity. I might have to buy one to try it.

I just got the flat faced trigger last week and I’m liking a lot more than the curved one.

 

[Stackon212]

Larue MBT is hands down the best trigger at $100 price point.

Whether it's comparable to SSA-E is subjective. SSA is more for the mil crowd.

I have one of the most expensive GEISSELLE AR trigger, SSF Sopmod. Honestly, it's not worth $400.

My cheap trigger upgrades are ALG QMS and Larue MBT.

Is there any way to get the pull weight down to something a little more precision oriented?

If you have some experience and definitely know what you are doing, or know someone who professionally works on triggers, it is possible...

Yes, buy a Trigger Tech Diamond.

I have one in my MPX. I think it feels wider than a Geissele, helping the perceived trigger pull feel lighter.
