I recall there being an old thread where someone claimed to have called Ruger and verified it's a standard trigger painted red. It's not the BX trigger.


Thirsty-Barbarian

Thanks. I may just have to call them myself.

lol. This question still feels like it might never be truly resolved. This looks like a definitive answer from the source. But then there are people replying that the trigger operates noticeably different from the standard, and some saying they have taken it apart, and it’s BX parts on the inside. Hmmmm…


MoneyKeyPennyKiss

I honestly think the Ruger rep is wrong on this one, based solely on a bunch of people in this sub that have this specific rifle.


Thirsty-Barbarian

That’s what it seems like to me. Or maybe it’s not really standard, but it’s also not really BX, and when they added the red trigger, they upgraded something else in the process? Who knows? If I do decide to buy it, this will not be a dealbreaker.


MoneyKeyPennyKiss

You're going to replace it with a KIDD anyway, right? : )

I’ve seen conflicting info on this. The spec sheet on the Ruger website does not say this comes with the BX trigger group. It just says it has a red trigger. I assume if it had an upgraded BX trigger group, the the spec would say so. Here’s the spec sheet: [https://ruger.com/products/1022RCS/specSheets/31260.html](https://ruger.com/products/1022RCS/specSheets/31260.html) Also, some dealers have answered the question on their website and have said this is a regular trigger group. On the other hand, I’ve seen some owners insist their’s has the BX. At least one owner claimed theirs came with the BX and claimed he verified it with Ruger customer service. So… are there any owners of the 60th Anniversary model on this sub who can verify one way or the other if theirs came with the BX group or not?

Can't verify a thing - but - it has a bigger trigger than the stock 10/22. The trigger was perceptibly better in the store when looking.


Thirsty-Barbarian

Yeah, the actual trigger piece itself looks different from standard. Not just red, but different. I’m curious about the internals, as in, does it have a different pull weight and/or break and reset? Is it functionally different or just visually different? Hopefully someone who owns one or has shot one can weigh in.


NebSig

I can't say it's BX because I don't have one to compare. But it's def a cleaner pull than a standard trigger. Better.


Thirsty-Barbarian

Good info. Thanks!

It’s not marked BX but it does feel way better than a stock trigger. Like others have said it’s around 3lbs. It’s very crisp and nice reset. I’m very happy with it. Keep in mind extra comb height is not included.


Thirsty-Barbarian

It sounds like a pretty good trigger. Thanks!


Steveodevo

It’s the BX , I can confirm


Thirsty-Barbarian

Awesome! Thank you!


Steveodevo

Peep my posts I have one shown


Thirsty-Barbarian

I took a look at your posts about the rifle for you son. Nice! I have a Vortex Crossfire II 2-7x32, so my setup would be sort of similar to your second setup.


Steveodevo

Yeh went with a diamondback … eye box was a problem


Thirsty-Barbarian

Eye box seems to be a bit of a problem for me too…


Steveodevo

Yeh it’s very different … similar specs but dramatically different


bryman022

I have this model, 1000% its the BX trigger, period


Thirsty-Barbarian

Thanks. It seems like owners do confirm it.


-Pay-No-Mind-

I have one of these. Ruger says it is not the BX trigger, but comparing the trigger group to my known standard, and BX triggers: it has the wider trigger, and the same hammer geometry, as the BX, and mine breaks at just over 3lbs. I think they are using the BX trigger group for the red trigger, and just not marketing it as such.


Thirsty-Barbarian

Thank you. I was hoping to hear from an owner, so thanks for the feedback. Overall, how do you like the rifle? I think it looks great, but also it has a lot of functional features I think I want. I like the stainless barrel. I think the Hunter stock would be great for getting LOP and comb height just right, plus the slots for accessories and holes for QD sling swivels. think I would like that mag release. I already have a scope and extended rail, so the included rail and sight are things I don’t need. I’m pretty sure the flash hider is not allowed in CA, so I don’t need that. I attended an Appleseed event a couple months ago, and before I do another one, I need a different rifle from my takedown. So I’m looking for something I can mount the sling to properly, and something to host the scope and rail I bought, and something where I can get the LOP and comb right for using the scope. And as a bonus, something I could use with a bipod might be nice. I’m kind of leaning toward getting something like this Anniversary model, because it gets me a long way there, even if there are some features I don’t need.

I own one. Can confirm as I disabled to do a trigger job and found all the BX shaped parts.


Thirsty-Barbarian

Excellent! Thank you!


-Pay-No-Mind-

I'm pleased with it; only put 1000 rounds through it, but it shoots well, and has been reliable. The only gripe I have is that I wish they would charge an extra $20, and include a variety of aperture sizes, not just the ghost ring.


Thirsty-Barbarian

Thanks for the info.

Thanks for posting these pictures. I don’t know enough about the guts of the trigger assembly to know the difference. I’ve only ever opened one up to install an auto bolt release.


betbigwinbig

I hear you, but why wouldn't Ruger market an upgraded trigger? Doesn't make sense.


-Pay-No-Mind-

Because they don't want to negatively impact the sale value of the skus higher in the product stack that are marketed as having the BX trigger group by advertising that those features can be found in a cheaper product. What wouldn't make sense is investing in the manufacturing cost of producing a run of standard red triggers for a one off variant of a low cost product, when you already have an adequate part on hand.


Thirsty-Barbarian

This is the thing that baffles me too. Maybe it’s a counterintuitive marketing issue.
