Just got my rifle, loving it except the trigger. I bought a ALG ACT trigger and it was no better than the OEM. It was gritty and about 1/6" of creep! I called Geissele and talked them into a return. Not sure if the trigger holes in the lower are just a tad too far apart for it to work in my gun. I have installed many AR triggers and several Geissele match triggers in my other firearms without any trouble. I was able to clean-up the OEM trigger to get a very smooth clean break at 3 1/2 lbs but stuck with some creep. It will do for now, not wanting to spend >$150 for a trigger for this gun.

I have some ALG triggers in centerfire guns and really like them. If you want to try another one in the same price range, the BCM is very similar as the ALG, maybe even a little better.

Tippmanns trigger is not inter changeable with every AR trigger. If you call Tippmann, they can either tell you what will drop in, or possibly modify the one you want to work. They have great customer service.
