Nice! Congrats! Let us know how it runs!

BTW - shouldn't be any reason any pmag won't work, unless there's something non-STANAG about the BCM lower? edit - just breezed through a thread on M4C. I'd probably just modify the pmags?

Finally pulled the trigger (heh heh)!

BCM Recce 14, and a Vortex Razor UH-1 optic is what I have so far.

Before it's duty ready I intend to purchase the following items:

- Foregrip (likely BCM short foregrip)
- Sling (likely an adjustable strap like all my coworkers bought)
- Streamlight tac light (650 or 1000 lumen)
- Flip up sights
- Extra mags (PMAG Gen 2 with the window, perhaps?)

what range do you plan on shooting at?

Everything around my house is going to be 100 yards or less. In this entire area I don't expect much past 150 yards.

I know that feeling

A few years ago I scored a deal on a Ruger Super Blackhawk with 7 1/2" barrel from a co-worker. It was a fun gun, but it was way longer that what I like so I sold it with the intention of replacing it with something more wieldy. I finally sprung for a replacement a few weeks ago and got this 3.75" Super Blackhawk 44mag. Recoil doesn't seem as stout as the longer barrel, but I imagine that is partially due to lower velocities from the abbreviated package. It still tosses one hell of a fireball and is a riot to shoot.

That is a beautiful revolver and the black grips look good on that stainless frame!

If the shorter barrel was recoiling less than the longer I suspect that is more to do with different ammo than anything else. I have a similar Ruger in 44 Special and it is nice as well!

I am much more impressed with this Geissele trigger than I was with the Gray Guns trigger for the Sig P320.

Would you say the Gray Guns trigger is worth it? I was considering getting one for my 226 awhile back but never pulled the trigger.


Late to the AR trigger talk party but I personally run the LaRue MBT-2S in all my guns. My mom has a Geissele (G2s i think?) in one of her rifles and the LaRue holds its own against it, if not better, and the LaRue is ONLY $87. If any of you are looking for a trigger for a new build or swapping I definitely recommend the LaRue.

I think it might be tough to compare a DA/SA trigger job to striker trigger job

Yeah I thought of that after I posted it. I guess I was wondering more of the quality of the kit/components.

I bought their competition kit for the 320x5. It definitely lightened the action as advertised. However I need to contact them as the break is like mush. I installed the kit myself, so that may have something to do with it. I am pretty sure the factory striker needs a little polish to make the break crisper. Really, I have just dragged my feet and not reached out to them to see what they have to say. Parts are all high quality and Bruce has built a great reputation, so I am sure they will either fix it or guide me in the right direction. I may even mail my gun into them. I would expect their 226 trigger jobs to be even better than the 320 with it being da/sa. Greyguns seems to have a lot of praise on the sig forums and from what I can tell be favored over apex..... who is probably their main competitor. Parts all look to be high very quality.

Once I get the break squared away it will definitely be worth the $130 for the kit. That’s a small amount to pay for a lifetime of benefit. If you like to change/trade in guns it may not make sense. If you plan on keeping it, and it’s not a carry gun, then hells yeah it’s worth it. I would never do any trigger work on a home defense/carry gun, to much legal gray area if ever used in such a role.

I will try to reach out to Grayguns Mon to see what they say. I needed this motivation.

I have a lot of Geissele, but I would 100% agree that the LaRue is best trigger for the dollar. It's fantastic
