Just wanted to give everyone a heads up about this trigger.
Seems they had some QC issues with a few recent batches. This weekend at our Carroll County shoot, mine exhibited some issues w/ slam fires in my SBR. I worked on the trigger this weekend, and took it back out to the range today. It seems that the trigger can be adjusted to allow for burst firing from an AR-15, even though I only have a 2-position safety.
Sure enough, dialing the adjustments back down allowed my SBR to go back to semi-auto.
I spoke to Alexander Arms about this, and they confirmed that apparently some of their trigger groups snuck out with a disconnector that will allow for full auto firing. They are a stand up group and have offered to repair/replace the trigger when I send it back to them. IMHO, this is an excellent trigger. Worth a look if you are looking for something custom.
Now, I'm posting this because anyone else that might have one of their triggers may have similar issues. For the record, it is ILLEGAL to have a fully automatic weapon unless you pay the appropriate taxes, etc. Also, your AR-15 would need to have an M-16 BCG (which is legal to have) for this to function in the same manner as I described above. What you choose to do with this information is completely up to you.
