Swiss Arms Match Trigger Kit

That is exactly what I am doing as well with mine. Classic Green 1/7.

Varminter/DMR actually. The target special makes it easy to do. I can't justify the 9K for the "sniper" model.

It makes a decent rifle for these purposes. Non restricted, accuracy is decent, built in bipod. The folder is nice for transporting as well. Makes a neat varmint rifle. :D

I have 2 Swiss Arms and I had three East German AKs while I worked in Iraq. In addition I worked with AKs from just about every other eastern bloc manufacturer, with the exceptions being Russian, Polish, and Bulgarian.

I will unequivocally state that they all, with the exception of the domestically produced Tabuk, had better triggers than either of my Swiss Arms. The Swiss Arms are good triggers with a good clean break, but an AK trigger is all of that without the super heavy first stage.

A stock AK trigger will almost universally be better than a stock c-7/m-16/m-4 trigger.

uhhh what? super heavy first stage pull = not on my cqb
 
What is a super heavy first stage'?
As near as I can tell from the three I own is that the trigger loads to around 6lbs and breaks consistently at 6lbs 6oz.
That is the stock, oem trigger.
 
I agree.. Having shot various Swiss Arms and SIG rifles, as well as many versions of AK's being compared to, I'll take the Swiss/SIG anyday. AK has no break, just a bend/twist/pull/KAK-KAK! I've shot new out of the crate AK's, old environmentally sandblasted 3rd generation hand-me downs.. No comparison at all.

Not that each doesn't serve a usefull purpose, but they aren't even close to being in the same league in terms of comparability.
 
teddy49,

Sorry, not buying this. I've shot Russina AK's, Bulgarian and Yugo, none of them had triggers as good as my Swiss Arms guns.

Well maybe I was spoiled by the East German Ak's which certainly are the best of the bunch. I found that while the AKs may not break as quite as crisply as a Swiss Arms, they are more than crisp enough that it doesn't have any discernible effect on accuracy. At least as you could discern it with an AK. And they are about 2 pounds lighter. All in all I prefer that combination to the Swiss Arms trigger, though I seem to be pretty lonely in that respect.
 
Well I must have had a bad lower cause my 556 lower had a better trigger then the factory one. I found the SA trigger to be quite heavy in the take-up and release. Reset however is nice, crisp, though heavy. This really isn't a slam of the SA by any means. Its designed to be that way. Manufacturers do this for arms intended for Mil/LEO customers, its a liability issue for governments if NDs occur resulting in unintended targets being hit. Its not that they built them to poorly, they built them exactly how they intended them to work.

Being on the battle ground any trigger will feel nice and crisp, take them all to the range and you'll find your opinion change, YOu wouldn't have been using your SAN's in the sanbox

Actually the company I worked for issued SIG 552s. They had their own set of issues which have been discussed on here ad nauseum. I was quite happy with my AKs.

I remember those broken 552 from posts made a few years ago - hence 552 is dead and now there is 553.
 
SAs are good rifles in general no doubt. But they are also limited. I think in Canada the non restricted status combined with the lack of options has them a bit overrated.

That said people hate on the AK way way too much. Many are fantastic rifles and more then accurate enough to do the job. Many choose AKs over a lot of options in the field given the chance. I doubt there are any pros out there who will take a SAN over a quality AR.
