Fantastic(11/05/2013)
Bought this trigger for my AR-15 chambered in 6.5 Grendel. It has a lot of spring tension on the hammer so there's no worry of a light strike on a primer. Take up is nice and smooth, then has a super crisp break in the second stage. No overtravel that I have noticed and has a short reset. All around a fantastic trigger.
Outstandng Trigger(12/03/2014)
An absolutely outstanding piece of engineering! The trigger was easy to install and performed flawlessly. Just as advertised, the trigger has a great 1st stage feel with just the right amount of spring tension and a very light and crisp let-off.
The videos provided by GEISSELE are both thorough and comprehensive in terms of installation guidance and understanding trigger design and function.
Too much take up(26/06/2014)
The Super Tricon trigger has way too much take up travel to the 2nd stage. If you're shopping for a true 2 stage trigger, with crisp 1st and 2nd stage points, and little or no travel between stages, pass up this trigger and consider one of the other Geissele 2 stage triggers. If you want a single stage trigger, choose the Geissele 3 gun trigger. Otherwise, the Super Tricon is a one- long but smooth, single stage, pull to action trigger.
Excellent Trigger!(06/07/2014)
What a shooter looks for in a trigger is a very personal and subjective matter. This is the second Tricon I have installed and find it an excellent tactical trigger. The first stage is under spring tension and will rebound to its initial position if the shooter decides to back off and not fire a shot. When the shooter decides to send a shot downrange, the second stage is light and crisp. T trigger offers a short reset so subsequent shots are rapid. Geissele offers a variety of triggers for a reason and this one fills its role exceptionally well.
Expected more(02/03/2015)
Love the shape and feel of the trigger surface. An upgrade from SSA which I use almost everywhere. However the first stage on this seems too long, and worse the 2nd stage had a LOT more creep than an SSA. Nowhere near as predictable and almost felt rough. I measured two of these triggers at 5.5lbs, not 4.5lbs as spec'd. Dunno if I got two bad ones, but they'll be replaced with my 'standard' SSA or SSA-E which so far are 100%!
Perfect Trigger(30/08/2015)
As I write this review, I am at the same time purchasing my second Giessele Super Tricon Trigger. This outstanding trigger has become my favorite because of the excellent first stage weight and travel and the predictable and crisp second stage. I also love the unique straight trigger contour and texture that offers excellent feel and control. There is nothing else like it. I look forward to installing and using my second.

As with all Geissele product, fit and finish is awesome. This trigger is essentially the same as the SSA but with a ribbed trigger bow and less curve. It works really well for us Canucks up here esepcially because we are always either raining or snowing, so gloves are pretty much part of the range bag.
received blem/defective(27/04/2018)
The trigger I received had various defects and blemishes I had to rend it back.
Received my replacement(04/05/2018)
I was sent the same defective trigger a second time with a note stating "as good as we have" see the picture below if this is as good as these triggers get I have serious questions about Geissele's Quality control this is supposed to be high quality thus justifying the cost. I am sending the trigger back a second time and this time I'm getting a refund.
