AR Triggers

I am still researching AR-15's and have a few more questions.

DPMS offers a JP adjustable trigger. Is it hard to adjust? How does it compare to the Armalite match 2 stage trigger?

I also thought of some more questions, since I am at it.
What is the standard windage and elevation (MOA)adjustment on the standard A2. Doesn't it get confusing with the NM sights that are 1/4 W & 1/2 E ? Can NM sights be set up with 1/2 W&E ?

Thanks again
 
I can offer a little info on the triggers, but never use the iron sights on my AR, so wouldn't be much help there.

The JP Trigger is adjustable for creep and overtravel; it's not adjustable for pull, although changing springs can give you a little control over pull weight. I use and love the JP trigger/hammer combo. I've installed several sets for friends. I'm getting a crisp, 2.5# pull.

If you want two-stage, try either the Jewell, which is adjustable for pull weight, or the Compass Lake, which, I believe, is also adjustable for pull weight.

My JP trigger is very much like the trigger on my Rem. 700 VS and VLS, which is what I like.
 
The JP comes stock on the Colt Accurized. My personal opinion is that it sucks bigtime. It was replaced with a CLE 2 stage trigger.

I know Walter loves his, but I prefer a 2 stage. Sorry Walter.

As for the sights, you can get anything you want, 1/4 or 1/2. Just break out the wallet and plenty of ar smiths will be happy to sell them to you.
