How much enhancement ( $$ ) do you wish to experience?I've decided to build my first AR-15. I am looking for advice on trigger groups. I would like something light and snappy to enhance my pew pew experience.
I'm add Rise Armament Rave triggers. I have 3... single stage 3.5lbs $130 retail.
Drop in triggers should only be used if your lower has off axis pin holes.

And not be able to fix it if you don't have the right tools to remove the anti walk pins.
A standard style trigger can be fixed with nothing more than a firing pin
I don't know, I've had it happen to me, and I've seen it on other rifles maybe a dozen times?I can see that being the case on a SHTF rifle you plan on going to battle with. For a everyday knock around range gun it's not too big an issue.

It kinda sucks when it ruins a range day because you forgot the tiny allen key and the range doesn't have one, or you loose one of the screws...
Between LaRue, Geissele, LMT and Schmid, there isn't much going for any of the cassette triggers
Ok, so for all that added complexity, what do you gain? A trigger that can't be serviced? 4 delicate screws that weren't there before? Requiring tools that weren't needed before? A jam that requires detail stripping when a field strip was all that used to be needed?When I'm at the range my life isn't dependent on my trigger working to save my life. If I'm at the range it would suck & maybe ruin my day if my trigger got locked up but atleast I'm still going home at the end of the day.
Personally, I carry a set of allen wrenches with me, along with a screw driver with flip tip for flat & phillips, small Cresent wrench & a multi tool.

Stoner's trigger is a work of art with how simple it is. No need to mess it up.
I only ever bring a long gun and 2 pistols, one of which is a .22 and seldom if ever leaves my backpack.Not to mention.... who only brings one gun to the range? Seriously if most of us got pulled over & a news crew were to show up it would make national news.
" Texas Man pulled over.... Cops find 4 rifles, 3 pistols & thousands of rounds of ammunition"
