Magwa Posted November 5, 2014 Report Posted November 5, 2014 anyone have any dealings with them or have any imput? looks very interesting... http://elftmanntactical.com/
blue109 Posted November 5, 2014 Report Posted November 5, 2014 I like the idea of needle bearings for a range toy. swapped out the bushings on my Mt bike shocks to needle bearings and there was a noticeable difference in smoothness. as far as the paintball looking triggers.....lol.
Robocop1051 Posted November 5, 2014 Report Posted November 5, 2014 I feel kind of weary about a new company making a product that looks identical to a Timney or CMC trigger, that's already been successful on the market, but theirs is atrociously more expensive.
survivalshop Posted November 5, 2014 Report Posted November 5, 2014 Who's first ? I'm not sold on the roller bearings , interesting though .
Magwa Posted November 6, 2014 Author Report Posted November 6, 2014 I am going to go shoot one in a few days at a class three dealers range will let you know how it feels...
98Z5V Posted November 6, 2014 Report Posted November 6, 2014 Anti-Walk, Anti-Rotating pins - just like putting a clip-type masterlink on a motorcycle chain. Brilliant. <thumbsup>
Roryb24 Posted December 3, 2014 Report Posted December 3, 2014 (edited) bump------- anyone use one of these triggers yet and any comparison to other high end triggers? Edited December 3, 2014 by Roryb24
BLKSHEEP Posted December 3, 2014 Report Posted December 3, 2014 bump------- anyone use one of these triggers yet and any comparison to other high end triggers? I don't think anyone here has one yet..... It looks top notch to me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xVQYytr6GsM
shibiwan Posted December 3, 2014 Report Posted December 3, 2014 I question the longevity of the needle-roller bearings. Used to rip through a ton of neede bearings back I was running gas R/C. Probably more than good enough for range use though.
Tripledeuce Posted December 4, 2014 Report Posted December 4, 2014 Magwa was supposed to check one of these out a month ago. What happened? Respectfully Terry
Magwa Posted December 4, 2014 Author Report Posted December 4, 2014 I am still waiting to try this thing out it is still in the works I have just not gotten to do it yet will check with my guy today...

Probably more than good enough for range use though. i see what your saying but you could just replace the bearing...so no big deal really. I think I'm gonna go ahead and buy one in jan. so when ever it comes in and i install it, ill let y'all know how it is. I have been debating what trigger to put into my new build, gotta replace the stock trigger. Edited January 1, 2015 by Roryb24
98Z5V Posted January 1, 2015 Report Posted January 1, 2015 ^^^ Very nice AP rifle - well done. <thumbsup>
Roryb24 Posted January 1, 2015 Report Posted January 1, 2015 ^^^ Very nice AP rifle - well done. <thumbsup> Thanks! I wanted to try their whole M5 upper and lower they are putting out but i went with the Rainer arms ultra match barrel and surefire socom break. It turned out pretty sweet with the Vortex 6-24x50FFP viper PST.
shibiwan Posted January 1, 2015 Report Posted January 1, 2015 I actually got the chance to handle an ELF tactical trigger (single stage, demo rig) recently and it had a good feel. Short travel, clean break and almost no overtravel. Pricey though.
unforgiven Posted January 1, 2015 Report Posted January 1, 2015 Nice rifle brother Roryb.AP is nice stuff.

Thanks Unforgiven, Im was gonna buy a Elf Trigger the other day buy i Bought a HK Vp9 instead....lol whoops but anyways its the last piece i need to finish my full custom AP M5 so maybe this month ill get one.
Magwa Posted February 5, 2015 Author Report Posted February 5, 2015 OK finally got the trigger yesterday installed in a lower today and will shoot first impressions it is one well made trigger it has a candy cane break, it is fully adjustable and the install is a breeze. It has two set screws in the bottom that you adjust to lock the trigger pins after adjustment it is solid. so far I like very much.... will do the full review with picks after today.
Magwa Posted February 8, 2015 Author Report Posted February 8, 2015 Ok I have the damn thing installed in a lower but I have got the flu and it has rained for three days will finish my review as soon as I feel better and it dry's up... hang in there it is a really nice trigger..
edgecrusher Posted February 8, 2015 Report Posted February 8, 2015 Bump ? Why? He just posted 90 mins before you bumped it.....
DNP Posted February 8, 2015 Report Posted February 8, 2015 Because we are impatient. And, the new post looked a lot like the one from a couple days ago.... Hope you feel better soon and the weather clears up Magwa.
Roryb24 Posted February 9, 2015 Report Posted February 9, 2015 (edited) Ok I have the damn thing installed in a lower but I have got the flu and it has rained for three days will finish my review as soon as I feel better and it dry's up... hang in there it is a really nice trigger.. Man really anxious to hear this review I've been wanting one so bad. Get better and go shoot that thing. Edited February 9, 2015 by Roryb24
Magwa Posted February 9, 2015 Author Report Posted February 9, 2015 (edited) Ok folks been shooting this trigger for the last 2 hours and I must say I am no expert but it is very impressive I like it better than my Gissele ssa-e now to be fair the Elftman is a single stage and the SSA-e is a 2 stage, but anyway installation is a breeze simple drop the saftey out (becarefull do not loose the detent or spring) drop in the trigger and tighten down the two set screw that lock in the pins they simple do not turn or move after you snug them up.. The trigger comes with everything you need including the allen wrench to tighten the set screws and to adjust the pull if you so desire... right out of the bag and into the weapon you are going to notice how freekin crisp this trigger is and how fast the reset time is I mean fast with very little back travel it comes in two types a straight trigger and a curved mine is curved and it comes preset to 21/2 to 4 lbs i figure this is real close to 3 lbs. the next thing you will feel is no creep at all it breaks like a candy cane again with almost no travel..... here is a picture of the upper side notice the two set screws on the sides for locking in the pins and the set screw on the back for adjusting trigger pull. here are two pictures of both sides... Ok so to sum up what I can tell you it is easy to install no surprises it works like a charm and you will be very impressed. If you have any question just ask and it is not going back to my class three enabler it is staying in my 300 blackout...... Edited February 9, 2015 by Magwa
