If you don’t like the color Krylon works wonders.
Imo the color is tolerable, but you’re getting an over 2 lb trigger…
A great trigger for those who prefer a lightweight but not hair trigger.Imo the color is tolerable, but you’re getting an over 2 lb trigger…
Agreed - good hunting or plinking trigger, but not a target/precision trigger.A great trigger for those who prefer a lightweight but not hair trigger.
I do have one btw - or I shouldn’t be talking, right
🤦♂️, it resides on a steel challenge style 10-22 with a VQ CF barrel in a Pmaca chassis and isn’t going anywhere 😎👍I am needing another plinking trigger and don't have a spare stock housing to put a drop in Kidd kit in. When you add up the price of a kit plus a take off housing the Volquartsen will be cheaper.
The $20 ebay Volquartsen kit is a nice improvement and the Kidd drop in kit is great. Just wondering how the TG2000 would be for the price.

At this reduced price point it almost competes but if you take your trigger pull gauge with you and try some BX's you might find one like I had that is creep free at 2.25#'s that will be comparable. If you have your housing (not a BX) the $28 VQ hammer kit with auto bolt release is first choice for cheap. Moving up the ladder Kidd Kit at $130, used Kidd Single Stage $250 and the best in the Kidd 2-stage used at $350. The Kidds can easily be adjusted upward from their low target weights with the Kit needing a package of different trigger return weight springs.
I must admit that I have never pulled the trigger on this Volquartsen model but listed with a weight of 2.25#'s it is too close to a good BX. Do you have any experience with the Kidd options? Easy to get 1.5#'s or less and crank them up to 3#'s if you like. I dont think the Volquartsen is adjustable for weight.I have one. I like it .
from my experience, there is no comparison between the BX and Volquartzen or Kidd.
a blind shooter can tell the difference!
DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON A BX!

My BX was spectacular with no creep and a 2 1/4# pull and if the Volquartsen comes in at 2 1/4#'s to me they could be used interchangeably in the same sentence. However to use Volquartsen in the same sentence with Kidd should probably not be done. If the BX you get is a 3#er I would agree.

My experience is extensive with triggers generally speaking including the old Canjar set-triggers for rifles, 1# 12oz Volquartsen trigger on my Ruger Mark II, Kimber 82G 8oz, Kidd 2-stage 9oz, Kidd Single stage 20oz, CZ 527 w/set trigger (not all that), CZ 452 16oz and others. I can easily tell the difference between a 1 1/2# trigger and a 2 1/4# trigger. My Volquartsen Scorpion pistol that is super accurate has a 2 1/4# trigger (same as advertised for the 10/22 model) and it does not compare with the Volquartsen trigger/sear combo in my Ruger Mark II. Ruger is crisp, VQ creepy and heavy. I don't need to touch the VQ 10/22 trigger if it is rated at 2.25#'s, not adjustable to decide if its a good deal compared to the competition. The Kidds will all adjust up to that weight if that is what you want. They will also go down closer to benchrest triggers at 1 1/2# or even 6oz and back up.
The VQ is adjustable for take up and overtravel, not pull weight. Both issues in a std Ruger 1022 trigger design. Mine is adjuted to the extreme on both, and so feels like a breaking glass rod at pull and its over before you can over pull the trigger . Its an option for people who dont do well with light hair trigger set ups because their hands / fingers aren’t sensitive enough to control them. I have a very expensive, elite sniper rifle with the same kind of trigger .I must admit that I have never pulled the trigger on this Volquartsen model but listed with a weight of 2.25#'s it is too close to a good BX. Do you have any experience with the Kidd options? Easy to get 1.5#'s or less and crank them up to 3#'s if you like. I dont think the Volquartsen is adjustable for weight.
Yes Iprefer my Kidd 2 stage 3oz/ 3os, and my CZ single set triggers for the bench. But if I have too, I can shoot the VQ as well, and certainly is better in the field.
Right now its on my Ruger 1022 International, But it used to be on a bench gun.
Its great that they got the glass rod thing going on your trigger. When you measure its weight, is it close to the 2.25#'s in their spec?feels like a breaking glass rod at pull and its over before you can over pull the trigger
Congratulations. None of those are the TG2000, my statement stands. The OP asked about the trigger and you are comparing some of their marketing material.My experience is extensive with triggers generally speaking including the old Canjar set-triggers for rifles, 1# 12oz Volquartsen trigger on my Ruger Mark II, Kimber 82G 8oz, Kidd 2-stage 9oz, Kidd Single stage 20oz, CZ 527 w/set trigger (not all that), CZ 452 16oz and others.

The Kidds will all adjust up to that weight if that is what you want. They will also go down closer to benchrest triggers at 1 1/2# or even 6oz and back up.
Well lets revise the statement to how much would you like to pay to get a no creep 2 1/4# trigger? Not sure where the Volquartsen fits on the scale of cost benefit but do know that if you have a BX trigger you dont like, Brimstone for $85 and a little patience on your end, turns it into 1 1/2#'s with ease. The Kidd Kit when appropriate is easy at 1 1/2#s or less in my experience for $130. The Volquartsen in other colors is just short of $300. In my scheme of things its price point is closer to $140 max based on performance. My heaviest trigger at 2 1/4#'s is a Volquartsen and the rest are 1 3/4#'s or below. Dont need to touch it to know what it is. If it were adjustable from a lower weight like the Kidd, it would be worth its price point.

I'm looking at this from an old hunter point of view..so, say I'm someone who's less experienced, and I'm just looking for a complete trigger unit for sake of simplicity..
I'd say without having to spend a bunch of money or if you are leery of taking your factory trigger apart to swap out parts, as a lot of newer guys are..I think the BX for about $60 (from Grabagun) is a great drop in trigger assembly for those that just want a good, safe, lighter trigger pull in their hunting/plinking guns
the Volquartsen that the OP linked to is a good step up both in price and function.. consider it, at it's worst, as just an improved BX in an alloy housing...but if it's anything like my older Volquartsen triggers, it's much better than that, with some added adjustability..is it worth the extra cost? would I buy one today?..tough questions to answer..if I were just plinking or an occasional hunter, I'd say no, get the BX..if I were getting a bit more serious about my shooting, I'd say go for it..these triggers are built well...and for the money, may be the best option
now if you guys can find a new KIDD trigger assembly, remember that's complete, not just a drop in kit, for under $180 shipped, then we can compare that trigger to these offerings...lets try to keep the comparisons apples to apples, and dollars to dollars
just remember not everybody is interested in benchrest shooting and/or ultralight trigger pulls..

I replaced 2 of my TG-2000s with KIDD 3.5 oz 2 stage and have been smiling ever since.
