AR trigger upgrade — LaRue MBT-2S thoughts?
The milspec trigger on my AR-15 is garbage. Looking at LaRue MBT-2S for about $100. Mainly for home defense.
Is the Geissele worth 2x the LaRue?

My wife would kill me if I bought another one but this is tempting lol
Used both extensively and honestly? The LaRue is 90% of the Geissele for half the price. For HD work the MBT-2S is more than adequate - crisp 4.5lb break and resets fast. Unless you're doing precision long range work, skip the Geissele and put that extra $100 toward a good light or sling.
LaRue MBT-2S is absolutely the way to go at that price point. I've installed probably 20+ of them and they're fantastic triggers. Clean break, minimal overtravel, and LaRue's customer service is solid. For HD you don't need a $200+ Geissele... save that money for ammo or optics IMO.
