Geissele Automatics (Geissele Trigger)
History
Geissele Automatics was established in 2004, but formally incorporated on 05/27/2008 by Bill Geissele in Norristown, Pennsylvania [-1] [16] [16].
First starting off with AR15 triggers (their Hi-Speed National Match trigger), in 2005, the company received a request by the U.S.
Military.
As a result of the request, the Geissele Super Select-Fire (SSF) trigger was developed.
The U.S.
Special Operations community has selected the SSF as their go-to trigger for their M4 rifles.
The company is now based in nearby North Wales, Pennsylvania [6].
