Most AR-15 drop in triggers install in minutes with basic tools and come with anti-walk pins or set screws for secure mounting.

Which is better: single-stage or two-stage drop-in trigger?

Single-stage triggers are ideal for speed and simplicity, while two-stage triggers are preferred for accuracy and control, especially in precision builds.
