Description
If you have been looking to buy a Timney Trigger for your budget-build AR but have been hesitant to do so because of the price.
Then you will be glad to know that the Timney AR Impact Trigger at $149 is the lowest-priced Timney you will find.
And if you are wondering how they did it, it’s simple really.
Why is the Timney AR Impact Trigger So Inexpensive?
The first thing they did was remove user choice from the equation.
Rather than giving you a variety of options to choose from, they’ve made it simple for you.
The Timney Impact Trigger only comes with a curved trigger shoe. In addition, it has a crisp, clean pull weight between 3 to 4 pounds.
The Impact AR Trigger Shoe is Black Oxide instead of the standard Carbo Nitride that the Timney AR-15 and Calvin Elite use.
They also used Carbo Nitride on the Impact AR Hammer rather than the standard Teflon Nickel found on the Timney AR-15 Competition and Calvin Elite triggers.
In addition, it also has a thinner trigger shoe and hammer than most drop-in triggers.
The fact that it only comes with a curved trigger shoe isn’t the end of the world.
However, if you are like most AR owners you already have or intend on having more than just 1 AR.
And that’s where consistency of pull weight matters. Unfortunately, a 3 to 4 pound pull weight or up to a 1 pound variance between drop-in triggers isn’t consistent.
To make matters worse, the thinner trigger and hammer can make the trigger pull weight feel a lot heavier than it really it is.
Simply put, The Impact Trigger is a budget drop in trigger. And IF owning a Timney Trigger is what’s most important to you, then this is the trigger for you.
Because let’s face it. Spending less than $150 on a drop-in trigger is a great deal.
Best AR Drop-in Trigger For Your Build
If what you want is a quality trigger at a quality price then consider the Classic Velocity AR Trigger.
You’ll be glad to know that the Classic Velocity AR Trigger comes with your choice of either a Curved, Straight, or Straight with Finger-Stop trigger shoe.
They also set each Trigger to a specific pull weight of 3 pounds, 3.5 pounds, 4 pounds, or 4.5 pounds. In other words, Velocity gives you that consistency of pull weight that you are looking for.
When compared to the Impact Trigger it has a 1/4 inch trigger shoe so your pull-weight will feel just like you want it to.
And you will still spend less than $150 dollars, as you can buy the Velocity Trigger for just $134.95. What’s more, you will have a lot more options to choose from.
