Imaposer & GH41-
Thank you for your comments and feedback.
Yes, the 10/22 aftermarket trigger selection is wide, varied & full of choices. We have studied the market & have spent over 2 years developing, manufacturing & testing the PRP trigger. It was our goal to deliver a product with innovation & new features, not just a "me too" kind of product.
The PRP trigger is a totally new, single stage, "from the ground up" system design. It is manufactured from top quality materials (including 3 different types of stainless steel & proprietary polymer alloys) using precision techniques & processes (wire EDM for the ENTIRE part to insure the engagement surfaces are in the exact & proper location- NOT MIM.) Custom injection molds were made to our specifications, insuring consistency & quality in every part. Each and every step was taken to produce an integrated system that insures the safety, reliability, repeatability & feel remain unchanged after extended use.
We gave the trigger to our shooting team for them to practice & compete with and try to break. These guys (and gals) generally shoot more in one practice session than most people will in a year. Like all competitors, they are EXTREMELY picky about how a trigger feels (minimal takeup/pretravel, crispness/no creep, light & consistent pull weight, minimal overtravel & positive reset) and uncompromising on reliability- it MUST go "bang" EVERY single time. After a year of hard use (in some cases over 50,000 rounds), none broke, the triggers still perform just as well as they did new & out of the package and are still keeping Team PRP smiling.
From the post in the PRP subforum, here are the specifications:
• Drop-in, no gunsmithing fit for 10/22, X-Ring & T/CR22 platforms
• Precision hammer, sear & disconnector, wire EDM cut from stainless steel
barstock, heat treated to Rc 52-54, w/ engagement surfaces polished to our
proprietary geometry
• Ball-bearing trigger return plunger
• Smooth, curved trigger with integral over-travel stop
• Custom wound springs
• Stainless steel pins throughout
• PRP "Survivor Series" Bolt Release w/ extended finger release tab (w/
serrations for more positive purchase), "slingshot" bolt closing cutout &
breakaway spare extractor; wire EDM cut from stainless steel plate
• PRP "Survivor Series" Ejector w/ breakaway spare extractor; wire EDM cut
from stainless steel plate & heat treated to Rc 45-48
• Crossbolt safety and mag catch precision machined from stainless steel barstock
• High impact, glass reinforced, engineering polymer trigger housing, under
trigger guard extended magazine release & curved trigger custom molded
by Hogue on our proprietary tooling
• Set to a crisp 2.5-2.25# trigger release with minimal takeup & overtravel,
giving a short, positive reset
• Drop tested for safety & reliability
• Verified longevity- A PRP production trigger has been fired over 50,000
rounds without failure
If you are looking for a precision, hard use, reliable rimfire rifle trigger system that feels good and is made by a company known for their fire control systems, you may want to consider everything that goes into the PRP.
