HIPERTECH IS NOT AN ACADEMIC EXERCISE HIPERFIRE recently introduced the PDI drop-in trigger family for the AR10 and AR15 rifle platforms.  It epitomizes the design goal that we have been writing about in HIPERTECH to this point.  We had the challenge to overcome what the majority of drop-ins sold suffer from: LPS or light primer […]

We Got It, A Trigger Metric That Works (pun intended) We, like everyone else, have struggled with things like pull weight and creep.  When we buy triggers, we think we bought the one we wanted, only to find out that what was advertised as low weight, or “no creep,” wasn’t real.  Either we were lied […]

Do You Ever Get That Feeling? I get this feeling all the time: something’s not right.  It’s got to be better.  What am I missing?  Maybe it’s a personality flaw.  I’m never satisfied, or if I‘m presented with something, anything, I’m always skeptical until I’m presented first with facts, nothing but the facts.  But facts […]

Hammer Strike Power, Who Gets It, Who Doesn’t We began a series of white papers on HIPERFIRE’s trigger technology (see the earlier blog posts and read the white papers under HIPERTECH at the top of every hiperfire.com web page).  We stated that HIPERFIRE intended to design triggers with low pull weights.  Because that’s what we […]

Creep is Good. Blasphemy, you say! Recently, we posted HIPERTECH #3, where we provided a lot of pull weight data scans for over 35 AR15/10 triggers that also highlighted the trigger creep.  We defined creep in that article but withheld our judgment as to whether creep is good or bad. “Creep,” any creep is a […]

How Much Does Your Trigger Weigh? Or, what’s the weight of your trigger?  Is it the actual weight, or are we really talking about the force we must exert on the trigger to get it to release the hammer?  If so, that would be its pull weight or pull force, just to add some clarity […]

Everyone Wants a Good Aftermarket Trigger If you believe the advertising, everyone sells the best aftermarket trigger.  Most of these ARE good, compared to the AR15 shooters’ bane, that MIL-spec one.  But what’s good or not so good, breaks down when making comparisons within the aftermarket group.  Well, here’s an introduction to some info that […]

HIPERFIRE put together a 20 minute loop highlighting is trigger family’s features along with interesting info on its HIPERGRIP product line that began selling late last year and its new HIPERCOMP to be released in Spring 2017. All products were demonstrated at the VFOB Try and Buy event the Sunday and Monday before SHOT and […]

HIPERFIRE®’s pistol grip for the MSR is immediately available today. HIPERGRIP™ is a high performance grip. The name also describes the hold and control that the shooter now has over his rifle, SBR, or pistol. It comes in four versions, same grip with and without a textured finish and with and without the HIPERFIRE® colored […]

SHOT SHOW 2016 is almost upon us. See the HIPERFIRE booth layout here. Of course, we’ll have triggers, but also some new stuff that’s not triggers. Curious? Visit the booth to see, touch, and DREAM!
