Description
The Geissele Super Tricon takes the guts of the well-known Super Semi-Automatic (SSA) and wraps them in a ribbed, curved trigger bow that gives your finger something to grab onto. Developed alongside Jeff Gonzales, a former Navy SEAL who runs Trident Concepts, this one was built for people who put real rounds downrange, whether that's training days, duty use, or serious range time. You get a defined first stage that leads into a clean carrot-like second-stage break, so you always know exactly where the wall is and when the shot is coming.
What Sets the Super Tricon Apart
The headline here is that ribbed bow. That texture gives you positive feedback and grip even when your hands are wet or cold, which helps with follow-up shots and keeping the gun steady through the break. Total pull weight lands in the 4.25 to 4.75 lb range, broken up between a first stage around 2.75 to 3 lbs and a lighter second stage. It runs a full-power hammer spring, so you get reliable primer strikes and dependable ignition. It's non-adjustable, which is by design, this trigger comes factory-tuned and ready to run.
Built to Take a Beating
Each Super Tricon is precision EDM wire-cut from heavy-duty S7 tool steel and finished in black oxide. That's the same durable construction that earned Geissele its reputation, and it holds up to hard use without going soft on you. Keep a little grease on the sear surfaces during break-in and it'll run clean for a long, long time.
Fits Your AR Without the Fuss
The Super Tricon installs just like a standard mil-spec trigger and uses .154" trigger and hammer pins, so it drops into any mil-spec stripped lower. It works in 5.56 and .223 AR-15 builds as well as .308 AR-10 pattern rifles, giving you one proven trigger across multiple platforms. Note that Geissele triggers are built for mil-spec AR15/M4 rifles and are not intended for MPX/MCX or pistol-caliber carbine variants.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the Super Tricon fit both AR-15 and AR-10 rifles?
Yes. The Super Tricon uses standard mil-spec .154" trigger and hammer pins, so it drops into any mil-spec stripped lower receiver. It runs in 5.56 and .223 AR-15 builds as well as .308 AR-10 pattern rifles. Just double check that your specific lower uses mil-spec pins before ordering.
Is the Super Tricon a drop-in or do I need to build it?
It installs the same way a standard mil-spec trigger does using the factory-style pins, so there's no separate cassette to worry about. Most folks with basic punches and a little patience can get it in during a range-day break. Detailed instructions come in the box to walk you through it.
Can I adjust the pull weight on the Super Tricon?
No, the Super Tricon is non-adjustable and comes factory-tuned right out of the box. Total pull weight lands in the 4.25 to 4.75 lb range with a defined first stage and a crisp second-stage break. That set weight is intentional, giving you a consistent, repeatable pull without any fiddling.
What makes the ribbed Tricon bow different from a standard curved trigger?
The ribbed surface gives your finger extra texture and grip, so you get positive feedback and consistent placement on every pull. That helps you stay steady through the break and manage follow-up shots, even when your hands are wet or cold. It's the standout feature that separates the Super Tricon from a smooth-bow SSA.
