HIPERFIRE’S WAY TO DESIGN A DROP-IN January 18, 2020
HIPERTECH IS NOT AN ACADEMIC EXERCISE HIPERFIRE recently introduced the PDI drop-in trigger family for the AR10 and AR15 rifle platforms.

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 […]
