New Hiperfire PHANTOM Triggers for AR15, PCC and MPX

    Just in time for a SHOT Show 2020 premiere HIgh PERformance FIREarms LLC (Hiperfire) release a new line of triggers. The new line is called PHANTOM and is planned to be available in March of this year.

    I have tried one of the Hiperfire triggers in one of my previous builds, but it was a while ago. It had a pretty interesting design (Hipertouch Competition).

    Unfortunately, I won’t have the possibility to visit the Industry Day at the Range just before SHOT Show and try the Phantom triggers, but I’m sure someone from TFB will be there and let us know more.

    Below you can see the Phantom line of triggers.

    All 4 versions have an MSRP of $180, which should be fairly competitive for a drop-in trigger.

    According to Hiperfire, the triggers are lightweight and offer a “hard hammer strike”, and LPS (Light Primer Strike) is history. Below you can read the full product release:

    January 2020: HIPERFIRE Announces The PHANTOM™ Trigger Family.

    HIPERFIRE’s customer base has clamored for an AR drop-in trigger that features the “feel” and hard-hitting hammers its triggers are known for.

    Most aftermarket drop-ins are notorious for LPS, light primer strikes. To get the pull weight down, designers have compromised their hammer fall. Not so with the new PHANTOM line of triggers.

    These drop-ins pull at around 2 lbs. and sport HIPERFIRE’s unique HIPERSHOE that now mounts onto a curved bow, not just straight.

    The hammer strikes surpass SAAMI’s copper crusher spec and hit harder than MIL-spec M4/16 hammers.

    Wow! The pull? It’s single stage. It’s short, sweet, and smooth as butter. That’s one reason we call it the PHANTOM, the “feel” is almost transparent to the shooter.

    To top it all off, no PCC blowback violence can touch it. The four PHANTOM versions feature a hammer collision bumper. Its disconnector and disconnector spring are impact and crush protected.

    Is it just for PCC? No way. It’s just an excellent trigger. Anyone can appreciate it shooting slow, fast, short-range, or for long-range precision, and on the move, it surpasses SAAMI’s rough handling specification.

    Be the first to shoot it at Industry Day at the Range, the day before Shot Show 2020 at HIPERFIRE’s full-auto lane. See it, feel it, at HIPERFIRE’s Shot Show 2020 booth #3016. For more information, visit www.hiperfire.com.

    And here are some of the details (known at this time) about each of the 4 different triggers.

    I have not been able to find out what the difference is between the triggers, apart from the colors, curved or flat trigger and that one fits the SIG MPX.
