I made the mistake of running an ambi mag release once. It may have been just this particular one but I found out that having my rifle slung would cause my chest rig to depress the button and drop the mag.

My thought is that a high quality rifle should be able to take having the crap beaten out of it, unless it's for some super high end competition where your rifle doesn't even move

So far I've got:
Hodge FN 12.5" barrel
A5 buffer tube
Geissele rifle length braided spring
Standard weight a5 buffer ordered
B5 end plate
Forward controls castle nut
Geissele gas block since it's going to be properly gassed with the barrel's gas port size
Geissele flat trigger
Accupoint 1-6 on a geissele mount
I'm looking at
noveske gen iii billet receivers
Forward control enhanced buffer retaining pin
Zev wedge lock rail
Forward controls bcg
Geissele bolt catch
Forward controls mag release
Sba3
Bcm mod 0 grip
Surefire closed prong warcomp
Maybe an offset trijicon rmr

Pretty much yeah. They're the single most well vetted Gucci trigger. There's other ones that are as good, but not as well vetted

02 Jun 2020 21:44
Basically geissele was trying to make a pro tier trigger that was still reliable, and his uppers in the military liked them so much that they put him on the track to starting a company and getting a contract. The big thing was getting a trigger that nice without putting a weak hammer spring in and causing light strikes
