The only thing that makes that a 3 gun rifle is the name and the name of the trigger.

Wasn't saying it was a good one...

More interested in the fact that more manufacturers are paying attention to the sport.

I have one of these triggers in my rifle if anyone wants to check it out. Some like it some don't it breaks at 2.25 # there is very little pretravel and almost no over travel there is no "breaking point" just a smooth trigger pull. I like it.

Just playing devil's advocate, what makes this less of a 3 Gun rifle than say the DPMS version?

20" A2 profile chrome lined barrel with carbine length gas and no compensator. This is a gun that someone put a special trigger and longer handguard on and called it a 3 gun rifle because they look similar.

The Stag 3G, Loki 3G, DPMS 3G1, Double Star 3G are all much more similar and are only $100-300 more because they have better parts that are specific towards an actual 3 gun rifle.

Plus these 4 companies I mention actually support 3 gun teams and the game.

WTF is this note way down in the bottom???

Note: The S3G trigger has a very short, light pull and reset. We do not recommend it for duty use, bench rest, accuracy work or shooting small groups. It is designed for close course competition use where rapid target engagement with quick follow up shots are required.

No small groups? I don't think I would have said that.

Haha! I hadn't seen that!

I had the Geisselle in my Stag for a year because that's what it comes with. It will shoot tiny groups but I did have trouble with flyers as I did not always know exactly when it was going to break due to the lack of a discernible wall.

Fail... Glad they're trying, but they can definitely do better at that price. especially the gas tube.

This is definitely a good thing!!! The AR15.com shotgun and now this. It's only a matter if time until some really good shooters are winning at 3 gun and all us chumps are talking about the good old days.

Err...what about the gas tube?

The page reads that it has a carbine gas system, but if you look at the picture, it looks like the micro gas block is right under the end of the rail. Guessing that's just a misprint. I've never seen a 20" 5.56 barrel with a carbine gas system.
