The Wide Open Trigger (WOT) AR-15 is a precision-machined, single-stage trigger designed for shooters who demand a clean, consistent break with minimal travel. It’s engineered for competition, tactical use, or any application where trigger feel is paramount. Since we started carrying it in early 2026, it has consistently been a top seller, with over 73 units moving through our shop.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a true drop-in trigger?
Yes. The WOT comes as a complete, self-contained cassette unit with its own pins. It installs directly into a mil-spec AR-15 lower receiver without modification to the fire control group pocket.
What is the actual pull weight?
The trigger is designed for a consistent 3.5-pound pull. Minor variations can occur based on individual lower receiver tolerances and gauge calibration, but it consistently delivers a clean, light break.
Is this trigger suitable for a duty or defensive rifle?
Many users employ it in that role due to its reliability and crisp break. However, always ensure any modification complies with your organization’s policies and that you are proficient with the lighter pull weight in a high-stress environment.
