TriggerTech Trigger 3.5LB Pull Weight Fits AR-15
- Firearm Group:
- AR Platform
If you're building or upgrading an AR-15 and want a trigger that actually performs like a precision rifle part—not just another mil-spec lever—the TriggerTech 3.5LB pull weight trigger delivers the kind of refined, shootable two-stage break that makes a real difference at the range or in the field. This is a drop-in trigger engineered around what serious shooters actually want: zero creep, predictable break, and reliability that doesn't fade after thousands of rounds.
The 3.5-pound pull weight breaks down into a crisp two-stage action—0.75 lbs on the first stage, then 2.75 lbs to break—designed to feel like a 1911 trigger rather than the typical gritty AR experience. The standout here is TriggerTech's Zero Creep Technology, which eliminates the dead zone of movement before break that wastes your precision. You get an extremely short overtravel and a tactical reset under 0.030 inches, so follow-up shots stay fast and accurate. Because the trigger doesn't rely on coatings or polishing to maintain its feel, the pull stays consistent shot after shot and year after year, even in tough conditions.
Built from hardened 440C stainless steel internals, this trigger resists corrosion and handles harsh environments without babying. TriggerTech's CLKR Technology means pull weight adjustments don't compromise hammer force, so you get dependable primer strikes at any weight you choose. The trigger comes in both curved and flat options to match your preference. Professional installation by a gunsmith is strongly recommended to ensure proper function and safety.
