Overview

The Extar Flat Two Stage Nickel Boron Trigger Group is the highest-tier factory trigger Extar offers for the EP9 and EP45. The two-stage design delivers a lighter and cleaner break than the single-stage flat Nickel Teflon FCG, with a distinct wall at the end of the take-up that makes it well-suited for precision shooting with a PCC red dot or magnified optic.

Nickel boron coating on the contact surfaces provides self-lubricating properties that reduce friction and wear over the service life of the trigger. The flat trigger shoe is consistent with the lower-cost Nickel Teflon FCG, so the muscle memory transfers between the two triggers. Installation follows the standard AR-15 FCG procedure and includes the same metal tuning plate compatibility as all EP9 trigger swaps. At $99.95, it is roughly the same price as entry-level aftermarket AR triggers from brands like Rise Armament and CMC, but with the advantage of factory-verified EP9/EP45 compatibility.

  • Nickel boron coated steel for reduced friction
  • Flat trigger shoe
