I've been bitten by the trigger bug recently. I currently have 3 mil-spec triggers of varying degrees of okayness, one RRA NM trigger and I recently added a Geissele G2S-E.
The Geissele is what prompted this. It feels quite a bit better than what replaced it.
To me if you forget about the hype the last two actually feel pretty similar except the Geissele is lighter, but with more travel towards the wall in the first stage before you hit that wall. Both are smooth.
For spare parts I have five triggers in boxes, two of which are pretty good RRA 2 stage mil-spec triggers that I'd probably use in upcoming builds if I hadn't caught the trigger bug so bad. The rest are an Armalite, a PSA and a beat to death Colt (that might still have some life left in it).
The AR's that have been through my hands in the past all had 2-stage regular old triggers except for one CMC flat single stage trigger that I really should have taken out of that rifle before I sold it. I've kicked myself for years about that.
The triggers that I'm interested in buying (or at least trying) are the Franklin Armory BFS-III, the Geissele Super Dynamic Enhanced (SD-E) and the KE Arms SLT-1 with their 45 degree safety.
The BFS-III

• Because it puts out double taps for you.
The Geissele SD-E

• Because I like flat faced triggers. There's something about them that makes them seem lighter and easier to hit with.
KE Arms SLT-1

• With this trigger you can actually put on the safety no matter what. On an empty rifle with most other AR's you can't do that.
