I just picked up a used J.P. Enterprise match trigger for one of My AR-15's
for $70.00. My question is has anyone here installed it without their lightened hammer? and did it work well? I am thinking of getting a Rock River Arms match 2 stage trigger for my other AR.

Don't know about the JP, but I can vouch for the RRA 2-stage trigger.

It's easy/direct-replacement install and is GREAT!

I've also owned the Bushmaster, Armalite and Compass Lake triggers. I like the RRA best.

I have, and it worked fine. Then I "lightened" my own hammer with a Dremel, like it shows in the instructions. Couldn't tell much difference to be honest.

Another BIG +1 for the RRA 2-stage.

Thanks guys!

Haven't tried the JP yet. I also like the RRA Match triggers. I have a Timney dropin and a McCormick dropin in two of my lowers, and I will be replacing those with RRA's too. Or I may put a Jewell in one of them and try that.

I'm enterested in hearing what you think about the JP when you try it. Some folks say the JP is as good as a Jewell.

bumping this for updates

I'm still running RRA 2 stage match in three rifles. The dropin McCormick and Timney in the other two. I have three unassembled lowers for future projects and still plan on Jewel and JP for those just to see how I like them.

A broken in RRA trigger set is a fine trigger at a good price. I have been at the range and saw a Jewel break which gives me some pause on that one but it could have been a fluke. I have not seen a JP fail. Is anyone using a JP now?

Do you have a preference over the McCormick and Timney?

 

[Texas Armadillo]

They are both single stage and have similar pulls and breaks. The McCormick really did just drop in. I think I like it better than the Timney. The Timney needed a little... convincing.

I think McCormick was working on a 2 stage dropin that would be better for me. Single stage is alright for targets, but I prefer 2 stage for a hunting or survival role.

I'm sitting here looking at my PWA that has the Timney in it and a NIB RRA set in a parts box. I may pop the Timney out later today and replace it. I'll see if the Timney fits better in one of my unassembled receivers.

Timney skeleton fell right into a POF Gen3 lower. Maybe that is whay POF specs them on their builds.

Wish I got it for $70.

I thought lightening the hammer was just to reduce lock time and hammer inertia. Should have no bearing on trigger feel or function- very slight accuracy improvement if everything else has been tweaked and running match ammo,...
