Product description

MBT-2S Uses S7 Tool Steel for Competition-Grade Performance

Features

  • S7 tool steel construction vs cast/MIM components
  • 4.5 lb two-stage pull (2.5 lb + 2 lb)
  • Glass-smooth operation with crisp break
  • Smooth and positive reset
  • Includes heavy spring for 6 lb pull weight
  • Drop-in replacement for mil-spec triggers
  • Competition-grade precision with battlefield durability
  • Made in Texas, USA

The MBT-2S addresses the accuracy limitations of standard mil-spec triggers through precision manufacturing and superior materials. S7 tool steel components eliminate the inconsistency found in cast or MIM triggers, providing repeatable pull weight and break characteristics. The two-stage design allows precise shot placement while maintaining safety, with the first stage taking up slack and the second stage providing a clean break.

Important Note: This trigger requires small pin lower receivers (.154″ pin diameter). It may not be compatible with pistol caliber carbines.

I've never felt the need to upgrade the triggers in my AR's, having worked with the triggers in M16's and M4's over a military career and thought that's just the way they are. They worked just fine, a couple got different springs, others got some polish work done, but the thought of replacing an entire trigger system never occurred to me. My latest had a trigger that worked but wasn't very good, even based on my M16 standards. Looking at my trigger, the ledge where the hammer would hook looked like it had been prepped with a garden rake (see the pic below).

I told you that to tell you this. After reading about, reviewing, and seeking opinions from others, and based on my budget, I selected a LaRue MBT-2S for my firearm. I went from gritty to smooth and crisp with a predicable break. The MBT-2S comes with two trigger springs, one 6lb, one [link removed]. With the 6lb spring I had a very sharp break and positive reset with a 5lb trigger pull weight. With the [link removed] spring the break and reset were similar, maybe not has sharp, but still much improved and a trigger pull at 4lbs. The real proof showed up at the range. With the [link removed] trigger spring installed I went to the indoor range to get my LPVO close to the zero I'll need to begin fine tuning it at longer ranges. At 25 yards my three round group was one small hole (see the target below). The difference between a $35 trigger and $110 trigger is now very obvious to me, heaven forbid I ever try a $350 trigger. :D

AT3 sold me a great trigger at a great price with the fastest shipping of any vendor I've ever delt with. I don't know how you can ask for more. They've become my go to for anything AR. Thanks AT3!

The packaging is well thought-out. Haven't installed it, been kind of busy with other things. Once I install it, and go to the range, I will provide a better detailed review.

I got this as my first 2 stage trigger and I’m very impressed by it I’ve only had single stage triggers as I do a lot more rapid fire I decided to build a dmr so I wanted a more precision base trigger and was recommended a 2 stage trigger the wall is solid but it breaks like glass the over travel is minimal and the rest is solid add audible
