I lived down in Reeds Spring, MO for a couple years. Mom is buried there. Need to get back for a visit soon.

That's a nice trigger. Worth it for a precision rifle.
I don't spend that much on triggers for ALL of my AR-platform stuff, but do put some variation of the LaRue MBT on all of them - massively better than scratchy MIL-spec and 90% of shooters can't tell the difference between a $90 trigger and a $400 trigger.
Sadly, ALL of these AR-platform rifles and pistols that I speak of were lost in an unfortunate and tragic boating accident last weekend.
Hate to hear about your loss. That sucks. Get this. Installed the trigger yesterday and something didn't feel right when trying to tighten one of the set screws that lock it in tight. One of them clicked as soon as I tried to turn it. You can't see the top of the screw because its sets down in the trigger housing to deep. Tried backing it off, "click". Tried to tighten a few more turns, "click, click". Took it out today because I figured what was wrong, the head must be stripped. It was. The screw is a 1/16 allen and would not move at all. I called but have to call back Monday to see what we're gonna do. Just my luck.
I’ve had that happen. What I do is use a control screwdriver or a very small flat head from a driver kit. It’s a gentle process but if it’s the Allen head rounding out, I’ve tapped a flat head into the head of the set screw and gently backed it out. This little screwdriver has been shaved down to fit these well. Plus it’s my carb jet screwdriver so it’s nice and thin. The only other thing I’ve had to do is remove the trigger all together and drive it down out the bottom. This would be my first suggestion because you won’t have that pressure binding it up.
The set screws are down in the holes that have the arrow and say "snug". It's brand new and was bad from factory. I didn't mess it up. It's going back somehow or exchanged for a new one.
I will say that TT triggers are very nice. They should take care of you. And that price from your link is only $3 over my cost. EuroOptic must have bought a bunch at a discount or something because they lost money on the sale of those! Not sure if you want to try a different company but JMT tactical out of Richland Washington makes very nice triggers for $120. I have a couple and sold them. Never heard of anyone complaining or having issues.

I've got LaRue MBTs in every AR except my 6.8SPC SBR that has a Geissle. Can't beat them for the price.
Picked up a Mossberg Maverick 88 today with 18.5" and 28" barrels at Buds Gun shop for $259. Should make a nice truck/SxS beater. Stopped in looking for a Glock 44 with a threaded barrel but they only had standard barrels in stock. Thinking about getting up in the morning and going to the gun show in Knoxville. I usually leave disappointed, but occasionally find a good deal. I've got an itch for another 357 wheel gun or Marlin lever that needs scratched.

Back in '68 or '69, my dad bought a Colt Python .357 Magnum w/4" bbl. Man, I wish he had not sold it back in the 70's.

Well the gunshow was a bust! I swear, every time I go to one I swear I'll never go back.
Every time I go to a gun show lately I feel rich.

When you’re not working, everyday is Friday. Do you hear the silence?
Realized I had been sitting on all the parts to build my wife’s poly26 for a while now. Got a bunch of the poly stuff a few years back and now that all the Glock parts finally came in from years of back order… wahlaaaa!

Turned out great! I've always loved the 26/27/33 sized Glocks. Seems like they almost always shoot as good or better than the larger frame sizes.....atleast for me.
I had a form 4 approved Friday for a Silencerco Sparrow. Only put about 20rds thru it off the porch but I can tell it's gonna be fun! I went ahead and put another 30cal can in jail while I was there picking it up. A Dead Air Nomad LT this time. I'm currently at 275 days on a Nomad 30 so hopefully I'll see it soon.
