Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. has announced the launch of the BX-Trigger, a light, crisp, "drop-in" replacement trigger assembly that is compatible with all Ruger 10/22 rifles and 22 Charger pistols.

The BX-Trigger is a Ruger factory accessory and is designed to serve as an upgrade for all 10/22 rifles and 22 Charger pistol models. It reduces the pull weight to approximately 2.75 pounds, a significant drop from the 10/22's standard 6-pound pull weight.

"We have made continuous improvements to the 10/22 over the years, but the BX-Trigger is an exciting performance advancement," said Ruger President and COO, Chris Killoy. "The BX-Trigger was designed for easy installation, superior performance, and legendary Ruger reliability. Like the popular BX-25 magazine for the 10/22, the BX-Trigger will deliver the excellence and value that shooters have come to expect from Ruger."

The BX-Trigger is sold as a complete assembly that "drops in" to replace the existing trigger assembly, with no additional adjustment required. A video of the installation process can be found here.

The BX-Trigger will be available to the public beginning on Dec. 19, 2014. Consumers will be able to purchase it directly from the company at ShopRuger.com, or from local independent firearm retailers.
