Well I love the way they fit and I actually have found the trigger to be just fine. The action is very smooth and I prefer a four lobe cam in most small placements. The down side for me was that my partner took a small fall on the purple 0 and the mill stop sheared completely off and the piece blew. Was it because of the way he placed it?? I dont think these are rated to be placed as a passive piece and maybe he had it under cammed but the description might have you believe that the mill stop could handle a fall while placed passivley, which I never wanted to do anyways. I'd be intereseted to know if this happened to anybody else.

what's a mill stop? I don't think these could be placed passively.

I am sure these should not be place passively. C4s can be, but the only reason for this is the double axle design
