Lock time is reduced 25% from 8.5ms to 6.5ms; which is as fast as a mil-spec hammer on an AR-15.<\/p>\n<p>Sear edges are ground and polished to be sharp before an ultra hard and low friction surface coating is added.\u00a0 The result is a<br \/>\nsmooth trigger pull, and a clean break which will not wear.<\/p>\n<p>Comes with a new tool-steel hammer pin.<\/p>\n<p>Consumer Comments:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;These are worth every cent you pay for them.
