10/22 Trigger group

[Sugar Land]

Has anyone had any experience with a trigger group from Empire?

 

[navyguy]

Nope, and I don't know what that is, but I have been very pleased with Volquartsen. You also can't go wrong with KIDD.

 

[Sugar Land]

I agree but was trying to get a little more bang for the buck.

 

[orbitup]

No but could you give us a link?

Power Custom 10/22 Adjustable Hammer and Sear [PC-HSADJ] That's what I have. $60.00 I also have the titanium trigger added for $45.00 but you can get the power custom plastic one for less.

Next up I'd go here. This wasn't out when I got mine.
Ruger 10/22 "trigger job" kit Their drop in trigger $105.--

After that I'd go with the full on Kidd Trigger.

I have 2 10/22. One has the Power Customs (linked in post above), and one is the stock trigger sent to Brimstone Gunsmithing for their Tier 2 trigger job. Both are excellent. But in side by side comparison I actually think the Brimstone job has a better feel.

I'll throw in another bump for Brimstone. They were quick on mine, about 15 days door to door, so they must be caught up because they used to run a month+.

I have a Kidd in one gun and Power Custom parts in another. The Kidd is fabulous, but the powercustom is very good too.

I have Tier 2 from Brimstone. It's pretty good. Anything is a step up from stock.

Does anyone have an opinion on older metal trigger group housings vs. newer plastic housings? I have both but not sure which one I want to upgrade.

I think it was brimstone who said that the plastic trigger housings are generally easier to fine-tune.

 

[Sugar Land]

Cool thanks.

 

[N2rock]

Yeah- Brimstone does say that. But with that said, I sent my metal one to them and it came back with a very nice clean & crisp 2lb pull. They don't charge extra for either one.

 

[Sugar Land]

Thanks N2

You got 2 lbs from a Tier 2 job? Mine just came back at 3.1. I'm a little unenthused about it.

 

[Sugar Land]

I took the metal one down tonight and did what I could to try to make it better. First 10/22 trigger for me. Gonna take it to the range Saturday and see if it was worth my time. ASC in the morning.

Make sure to post a range report.

yes, 2.1

What did you request when you ordered it? If you requested 2, I would contact them. I have no doubt they will make it right for you.

 

[Sugar Land]

I took the trigger to the range and I knew ahead of time that I stopped grinding early and when I tested at the range there was not any noticable difference. Time for round two.

Okay, not meaning to say Brimstone and their work is inferior, but they, or anyone that does work on Ruger OEM parts is starting from a disadvantage as compared to KIDD or VQ who use higher quality steel parts, with more exacting tolerances. You will most assuredly get a better action with custom parts as with KIDD or VQ. Costs more, but you decide. Many are happy with the OEM parts reworked, and that for sure is a less expensive alternative to the crap-ass OEM action Ruger puts out.
