AR gurus... POF .308 lower and a Geissele Hi-Speed National Match trigger 05-127

[thefitter]

Pin size is correct?

Thanks

It should be small pin. The large pin triggers are for pre 2010 colts

Thanks, I can't see anything about pin size on that model.

All POF lowers, regardless of whether AR-15 based or large-frame, use SMALL PINS (i.e. - standard, mil-spec size). The 05-127 model trigger is the CORRECT trigger for a POF lower.

Just be sure when you get the Geissele that you run it with the pins provided WITH THE TRIGGER!! They are precision components designed and constructed to work with the trigger. Using other, aftermarket pins, can cause problems with proper function of the trigger, as well as cause damage to the trigger itself.

Thanks for the detailed and lucid response!

Really? So small pin is semi auto and lage pin is for select fire and full auto? Are you sure?

I don't think so.

Please THINK before you TYPE!! This is just patently incorrect and frankly...DUMB!

Colt switched, for a time, to the large pins (0.170") as a politico-legal maneuver to allegedly prevent the installation of a FA fire-control group into a standard AR lower (despite the MILLIONS already produced and on the market at the time their BS changes went into effect), with the addition of drilling a sear hole, installing said parts along with corresponding m16 carrier, etc., etc., and thus, "easily" creating a FA firearm. Same politico-legal BS as the @#$%ing sear blocks in SOME Colt lowers (varying generations/styles), as well as changing up the pivot pin to the screw type, etc., etc., etc. Thus, the "large pin" was ANYTHING BUT "full auto" as you stated. FWIW...Colt has "seen the light" and now produces standard, mil-spec pin lowers with your basic push pins for the pivot pin, etc.
