Rock River NM 2 stage trigger review

The RR triggers are OK starting out but they wear out pretty fast (usually 3-6,000 rounds) and when they do they start to double. I prefer the Geissele SSA which will make it a full 10,000 rounds at which point it is time to replace the bolt, all the lower parts including the trigger and maybe the barrel. Any trigger you go with if after some wear it starts doubling I would not try to fix but replace at once as then you are in possession of an unregistered machine gun.

Are you claiming the effective life of the 15-22 is only 10k rounds? Upon what do you make that assessment - especially the barrel?

FWIW, the barrel on my '63 High Standard match .22 has something over 40k through it and it will still put 25 rounds through the 10-ring of a standard 25-yard slow-fire target from a machine rest.
 
I agree, if this firearm is only worth 10,000 rounds, I want my money back!!!! But somehow I think it will last longer than 10,000 rounds. ;)

I think the gentleman's estimate is suspect; mike has 5k through it with no sign of wear on any of the moving parts. I feel sure the steel challenge and other match shooters that are regulars here have much more than 10k through theirs and I don't remember any of them saying anything about parts (especially barrels) wearing out.

The same goes for his estimate of the life of RR triggers, although I have no experience with them.
