Preferred 'drop-in' trigger upgrade

gr8smiles · Nov 25, 2011

Since it is Black Friday, I thought that I would look for some deals on triggers to replace the stock one on my M&P 15/22. Is this the small pin or large pin? Do some work or fit better than others? I have polished and fooled with mine, but would prefer one that is adjustable and is an upgrade to stock.
I have searched here and could not find a consensus.
Thanks

Chip McCormick drop in....Don't know pin size of your .22, but I believe they make small and large pin models. I debated for some time on spending that much money, but I absolutely love mine. Was a very good decision for me.

+1 on the Chip McCormick drop in. I love mine! This was the single most beneficial upgrade I've made to this rifle. I enjoy shooting it that much more. With the correct ammo, this trigger made my 15-22 a sub 1" rifle at 50 yds, and about a 1.5" rifle at 100yds.

BTW - small pin.

The 15-22 uses a small pin receiver (.154"). I have a Rock River 2-stage in my AR15 and if I ever change out the trigger in my 15-22 it will be to one of those. Just a great trigger and not too expensive.

Thanks....Brownells had them on sale for 159. They also had an extra 10% off for orders over 200. I added a case of CCI subsonics and the deal is done. Thanks

The M&P15-22 has standard pins. Large pins are a freak of some early Colt AR-15 models when they had all sorts of non-standard parts, blocks, and screws. No one else ever used them.

I think you will be very happy with this trigger set-up. I paid around $225 for mine, but they are in demand by the LEO's in my neck of the woods. Subsonics? Sounds like suppressor fodder to me...........

Let's just say that the ATF and I are on a first name basis...15/22's run like a top with a can attached

cmc trigger

put chip mccormick in my s&w ar15=22 and the pins are too short to go through the receiver to install the eclips. just an observation. the trigger works fine and 3.5#

RDS, what did you do to remedy the problem of the short pins?

USAF1980 · Nov 29, 2011

I'm assuming nothing because the ones that are in the mp now are also short and sunk into the lower.

ragingyeti · Nov 29, 2011

The pins being a bit short are really only a cosmetic thing. The pins should still remain in place. If you are really concerned, you can always get the KNS anti-walk pins that have screws that keep them in. I believe they would fit.

I installed these pins when I put in mine.

I'm looking at this one too. It is on sale at midway for $170, so I don't think the coupon will apply. It does come with a nifty hat tho!

Anybody running this one? I just watched the gesille vids on youtube, I'm sold! I hope it's not all hype.

I have the geiselle trigger on my Rainer Arms 223 AR. Now i dont have loads of experience but i love the trigger so far with about 1200 rounds. It is truly an icicle snapping is my best description. I have been trying to talk myself out of getting one for the mp15-22 but i am getting very weak and i am sure by spring it will have one or it will get the transfer down for the 223.
