Upgrading an AR trigger can transform accuracy, shot-to-shot consistency, and shooter confidence across duty, competition, and range applications. A versatile, tunable drop-in trigger that balances crisp engagement with durable materials is the foundation of meaningful performance gains in modern AR platforms.

TRIGGERTECH ADAPTABLE PRIMARY brings adjustable precision to the AR space with a short, two-stage action engineered to emulate the feel of a 1911 trigger while remaining optimized for AR ergonomics.

Key features that matter

The Adaptable AR Primary Trigger uses Frictionless Release Technology for a clean, repeatable break that reduces creep and improves shot consistency. Hardened 440C stainless steel internals provide corrosion resistance and long service life. A standout is CLKR Technology: adjust the pull weight from 2.5 to 5.0 lbs in 2 oz increments with a simple set screw while the trigger is installed—no gunsmithing required.

Performance and use cases

Short two-stage action

The short, two-stage travel is designed to feel familiar to shooters accustomed to 1911-style triggers, offering a tactile first stage followed by a crisp release. That profile works well for precision-oriented builds and rapid-precision shooting alike.

Adjustability with CLKR

Being able to tune pull weight in 2 oz steps between 2.5–5.0 lbs means one trigger covers an operator’s range of needs—from light, precise pulls for competition to heavier settings for duty or training. The set screw adjustment while installed keeps the process fast and reversible.

Installation and durability

As a drop-in AR trigger, installation is straightforward for any user familiar with basic AR disassembly. The use of 440C stainless steel for critical components minimizes wear and environmental degradation, making it a low-maintenance option for repeated service use.

For shooters who demand a single trigger that adapts to multiple roles, the TRIGGERTECH ADAPTABLE PRIMARY offers precision, adjustability, and robust construction in a compact drop-in package.
