Reading an AR-15 'How-to-' artical

Whats the difference between a single stage and a two-stage trigger?

single stage trigger pull creep bang
double stage trigger
pull stop next 1/1000 of an inch pull Bang
crisp break no creep

how do they work? "beautifully"

Roland has one on his....maybe his .204? has to be his .204...

it pulls all the slack out of the trigger so that when you twitch, it goes bang.

As stated you feel a light movement, then a stop, then a little more pressure = bang. Not sure if you actually shoot a Glock or if you just like the pic. A 2 stage is similar to how the Glock trigger feels.

I personally prefer a good light single stage trigger set with no creep. Gently put your finger on the trigger, then gently add pressure for the bang.

My M98 had a two stage trigger (military). It was awful. I never knew when or where it was going off. I had it replaced with an adjustable single stage and it was the best thing I could have done.
