    bm varminter upper, I built the lower with a dpms parts kit and a timney 3# trigger, bipod, and topped it off with a burris xtr scope. I built it with a standard trigger at first, but after installing the timney it made it a whole new weapon, I also switched out the gas block, no reason I just thought it looked better.

    DPMS Match upper with a 34" bull SS barrel 1/8
    RRA lower with RRA match 2 stage trigger
    Magpul PRS stock
    Sightron SIII mil-dot scope

    Some day I'll work on getting the scope lower, but for now it works just fine.

    Yeah I'm thinking a trigger upgrade is next.

    There are a lot of good trigger's for AR's out there. I have a JP one stage with speed hammer in another of my guns and it's by far the best trigger I've ever felt in a rifle.

    They're not bad, but they are two stage. There's pre-travel that has to be taken up before you hit the wall. Compared to a std trigger, it's wonderful. Compared to a JP single stage with a speed hammer, it's barely acceptable.

    is it worth all the extra money? I dont have any trigger time with any of the high end triggers.

    Fully agree. NM triggers are good for what they are designed for, but if you want a good trigger you need something else

    JP complete kit with speed hammer or Jard adjustable + anti-rotate pins and you will have a good trigger for a long time. Jard needs more work to set up correctly, but delivers little lighter pull than JP.

    If you like 2-stage trigger, get Jewell or Geissele. Jard 2-stage may be a good one also, but I have only limited experience with it (=installed ~10 pcs).
