Im expecting arrival of a DA 556 this week. Any DA 556 owners able to comment on what the trigger is like "out of the box" and not modified?
 
Mine had an out of spec hammer/trigger angle, you can check this when you get it. With the upper off, #### the hammer and pull the trigger, don't let the hammer fall though, stop it with your hand. If the hammer moves DOWN before releasing its way out of spec. Mine moved down a lot before it would release.
 
I just got my da556 and I've had it out once, this is my first AR platform rifle and was pretty happy with how it performed. The trigger was very heavy/rough. After I cleaned it I watched some youtube videos on how to disassemble the trigger assembly and how to polish the engagement surfaces. When I took it apart the I could easily see some pretty deep machining marks on them, they were easily felt when I rubbed my thumbnail over them. I carefully stoned them smooth then polished them with my dremel tool and the trigger feels waaaaay better. I'll probably be heading out to the range with it this weekend.
