Normally when anyone asks me what type of trigger they should spend their money on, without hesitation I always suggest some variant from Geissele (http://geissele.com/)

However I've run 3 triggers from G. , and I figured what the heck i'll try something unique on one of the pistol builds, the ELF 3 Gun Trigger (http://www.tacticallink.com/Elftmann-Tactical-3-Gun-Single-Stage-Straight-Bow-Modular-Trigger-for-AR15-and-AR10.html) has peaked my interest.

Anyone have any experience with them? Good, bad or otherwise? Even google searches bring up next to nothing...

I've been curious about it as well, since I really like flat triggers. I bought a used CMC flat trigger that I thought was pretty good, too.

Have heard good things about them.. I personally haven't had the pleasure of trying one, but the reviews I've heard are all positive... I'm curious on how the aircraft needle bearings hold up

I plan to put one in my next build, probably an SPR type rifle. Hopefully it lives up to the billing!

I know right? It's the most expensive AR trigger that I'm aware of... It should get here next week. I'll do a small write-up after I get about 200-300 rounds with it and also compare it to the G SSA-E and the ALG ACT.

What is the pound pull on the one you have?

The one on my AR is a flat 3.5 lb. I really like it. Flat triggers are where it's at. :)

I actually haven't picked it up yet. The local shop was disassembling a build and I was buying a few parts (Salient receivers and BCG and CMC trigger). It felt like a 4.5lb pull to me, very similar to the weight in my SD-C. I've only dry fired it, but it felt really good. I'll hopefully have it in the next week or two.

I couldn't be more pleased with mine... I think you will be happy. Make sure to chime in somewhere and let me know what you think once you get to really try it out.

I took my rifle to a range not long ago and the guy at the counter asked if he could see it.... naturally I obliged.... he looked it over and had this 'damn this is nice' look on his face... then he shouldered it and did a dry fire.... the smile on his face said it all.... it was something in between joy and shock and an 'oh wow' look LOL!

I wasn't sure if I'd like it being a single stage, but it felt really good.

Which brings up a question on the Elftmann triggers. I didn't see anything on their sight that said if they were single or 2-stage (though I could have missed it).

That's kind of what I figured, with the travel being so short.

Very nice video Duty. It looks very nice. I also love them flat bow triggers, I've got a SD3G on a rifle. That trigger looks like it's a lot like the SD3G, but with a break. The SD3G doesn't break, it feels like your using a 2 stage trigger but when you get to the second stage it isn't there.

Thanks. I use to have about 40 videos of various guns, gear and stuff but the comments got to me so I took em all down. I enjoy video making because I can get my true opinions out better through talking then txt.

So glad I didn't go with the G. SD-E
