Bought my 10/22 in 1970 ($49.00). Up until about 10 years ago still had stock factory trigger. It was like grinding two rocks together. Broke down and bought a timney, and it was as smooth as butter and broke like glass. After a few hundred rounds it was harder to pull, but still broke nice. Just went off the deep end and ordered a tg. 2000 volquartzen. Hope it lasts better than the timney. It's hard to spend 5 time's more on on the trigger than the rifel cost 😩

I agree. No 10/22 trigger roundup is complete without Kidd triggers present. I have all of Kidd's triggers, and the 6 ounce 2-stage is the finest trigger I have ever pulled. The complete single stage trigger is very nice if you like a single stage trigger, but I also have the Kidd "trigger kit" that you install in your factory housing, and it is just as good as the complete single stage, but half the price. Neither compares at all to the 2-stage unit though.

Again, not aluminum, and still use the really curved trigger, though. Yes, I know changing out the trigger group will make the T/CR22 no longer hold open on the last shot. I don't care.

So, when you go to “catch” the hammer by pushing back on it, you took weight off of the trigger and fudged the results.

It would have been a perfect test but you can’t interfere with the mechanics like that. Bummer, such a good setup and video to have potentially tampered results like that.

The prices have risen dramatically......the BX alone is $100 today, not $50.

why not include a Kidd trigger?

KIDD INNOVATIONS.

I would agree, but I don’t have a kidd to test and kidd is pretty terrible to work with media wise.

@James clark Was that necessary? I don't think he was saying fuck Kidd for not giving it to him for free. I'm sure he doesn't want to buy one just for testing. Why don't you loan your Kidd trigger to him for testing instead of being asshole? Also, it's spelled "millennial", dipshit.

@James clark I know this is an old post, but that was needlessly harsh, especially since you were essentially putting your words in his mouth. Not sure he's the one with the maturity issue here.

@James clark What an absolutely arrogant prick. Im talking about you here, not the guy offering to test and compile data that greatly influences trigger purchases with an unbelievably expensive piece of equipment and asks only for a loaner sample for the test. Get fucked you absolute bastard.

@ZackCarlson 4 жыл бұрын

I never said to give it to me, a loaner would be appropriate in this situation, but sorry I’m not going to buy every trigger out there a take my time to do the testing. Also I’m not an amateur, I’ve been in the industry for 10 years and have been paid for my media work for years. I don’t need your validation.

I’d love to see the Bianary trigger from Franklin Armory included on something like this - it looks fun, but I have no idea how it breaks

Good video but you forgot Tony Kidd.

@ZackCarlson 3 жыл бұрын

Didn’t forget him at all. They don’t work with media people at all and the stuff I have purchased in the past left me with less than good experiences.

Why didn't the Jard, Timney, or Kidd triggers make the cut?

@ZackCarlson 3 жыл бұрын

Not that they didn't make the cut but these are all the triggers I had. I tried asking Kidd to send a loaner but they essentially told me to F off.

@@ZackCarlson Gotcha, good to know. I was mostly curious what people think about the Jard trigger in a 10/22, as I have used their triggers on multiple other platforms over the years. Seems like people either hate or love their triggers. I was curious where they stack up analytically to other proven triggers. Very interesting info on the triggers tested though.
