This is our billet machined trigger ONLY. Just the trigger. Not a trigger group. Not a trigger job. Just the trigger, our torsion spring, two set screws, and the tools you need to install it. 

 

Let me repeat. This is just the machined trigger, like in the picture to the. Just so we are all clear. So don't buy this and then complain when ONLY A TRIGGER shows up in the mail. Because I know someone is going to do that... 

 

Our triggers are available three ways: 

1. The trigger blade only. This trigger blade is a direct replacement for the factory one, and will work just fine with your factory trigger return plunger. However, it will ONLY be a cosmetic upgrade; you should not expect any improvement in trigger feel or function over the factory. I mean, yes of course this trigger will feel different under your finger, but it will not in any way change the trigger pull. 

2. The trigger blade with our torsion trigger return spring, and the two set screws required for it to work. This trigger has been machined to accept the torsion trigger return spring. Two holes will need to be drilled and tapped (please see the Brimstone Trigger Kit Guide here for more information before buying), one which will hold the other end of the torsion spring, and a second which will go in the factory trigger return spring hole, and act as a very clean and inconspicuous overtravel stop. 

3. The trigger blade, torsion spring and set screws, and the #29 drill and 10-32 tap needed to install it. If you don't already have these tools, here you go. I would also suggest that you should probably have a drill press, a small file, and a tap handle if you are going to install the kit. It is NOT drop in, but it is one of the best/cleanest set-ups out there when installed with care. 

 

This will ONLY work with the factory 10/22 trigger groups! In case you've been living under a rock in the 10/22 world, you're aware that Ruger and other companies (such as Thompson Center, Volquartsen, etc.) are making other trigger groups which claim to be compatible with the Ruger 10/22. And while that is true, that does not mean our trigger will work in their trigger groups. This will ONLY work in standard trigger groups, either older aluminum or newer polymer. This is NOT compatible with BX internals, and we do not make any claims as far as compatibility with any other companies internals.  

 

Again, the trigger blade alone will only be a cosmetic upgrade, really. The trigger with our torsion spring will usually greatly assist in cleaning up the trigger movement, dialing out the over travel and making the 'stages' in the trigger press much more noticeable. 

 

THESE ARE NOT DROP IN! They will require some fitting, and if you elect to get the (awesome) trigger return spring kit, that will require permanent modification to your trigger housing. Read the directions below, and make sure that you are comfortable with the work before you order the parts. 

 

(We are working on a video for installing these triggers, but until then all we have is this write up. If you're just buying the trigger, the Brimstone Trigger Fitting Guide is all you'll need. If you're buying the full trigger Kit, you'll ALSO need the Brimstone Trigger Kit Installation Guide

    Excellent trigger

    Posted by Gabriel on Sep 15th 2023

    I would have just sent my trigger pack into Brimstone, but I didn't want any downtime with it being squirrel season. So it's nice to have the self-install option. After reading through the instructions webpage a couple of times, the installation went a lot easier and quicker than I imagined. I opted for the full kit with the drill bit and tap, it's great to have that all together so there's no risk of using the wrong sizes. Note that you will need to provide your own tap handle. The trigger looks great and feels great. I really wanted to get away from the gritty trigger return plunger, and this was just the ticket. The internal torsion spring is a lot better design, and putting an overtravel stop screw in its place was good thinking. If/when I get another 10/22, its definitely getting a Brimstone trigger, too. After going this route, I just can't go back!

    Spring pre-travel

    Posted by Michael Detore on Oct 5th 2022

    Without a doubt, a better mousetrap..I made my own spring with lighter gauge wire...I used a large hex tool to wrap the wire around...Pretravel decreased..The hex shape gripped the round part that is on the trigger....Just a thought..Redesign the trigger so the round part is now hex shape..Hex shape spring as well...Pretravel may be non existent..Pleased with my purchase

    One of the best flat shoe triggers I have used. Lowered pull by about 1/2 pound which I did not expect. Very smooth through entire pull.

    10/22 Trigger Kit

    Posted by Scott Szymanski on Dec 23rd 2020

    The trigger is a quality part. I bought the kit with the proper drill bit and tap. The included Allen wrench did not fit the set screws. I recieved two trigger springs. I don't know if one is a lighter spring or an extra. Installation was straightforward. My trigger housing did not need the lip removed and the trigger did not need to be filed to fit. It dropped right in as is. I only needed to file for clearance of the return spring. This is the first time I've worked on the 10/22. I watched videos and practiced disassembly/assembly to get familiar before the modification. I also modified the bolt release while I had it apart. My only recommendation is to include a dummy pin to ease assembly. I ended up making one. The trigger is definitely an improvement over stock. I don't have a trigger pull gauge so I can't say if it's lighter.

    I'd love to review the products, but I never received them. No responses to my emails from Brimstone.

    Best trigger

    Posted by Jerry on Aug 25th 2020

    With so many options for 10/22 triggers it’s hard to know which one to go with. With this trigger utilizing a torsion spring setup it is way better than stock. I just wish they gave you an option to buy one of those springs. Oh well.
