I agree with your insight, I am not going for the SSA-E because of this. a 3.5lb trigger for a DMR gun is not what I am looking for.Factory government trigger is good enough for hunting and self defense. What some aftermarket makers install might not come up to that standard. . . . .Be careful what you ask for. Nothing wrong with getting a crisp, short pull but a field or tactical use gun should have a 6 - six - pound trigger with some creep to stack so you know you are pulling it. It's not position target shooting, and the few extra ounces aren't going to make any effective difference putting a bullet in the kill zone.
My Daniel Defense rifle is under recall for a disconnector issue, evidently some of them decided to burst fire sometimes. I don't like the trigger that came with it. I am used to shooting government spec M4/M16 triggers. the trigger in my DD rifle is the second worst trigger I have ever used, second to my Ruger 10/22 trigger. it is heavy, gritty, and breaks inconsistently compared to the other M4 and M16 rifles I have used.
