The RISE Armament REV 535 is here, and it brings something pretty different to the AR-15 trigger game. In this review, we're putting the new REV 535 Slide-and-Snap Trigger to the test to see if the hype is justified.
The REV 535 is built around RISE Armament's proven 535 trigger design, but adds a completely new installation system that lets it slide and snap into a compatible mil-spec AR lower without the traditional trigger pins, screws, or complicated installation process.
But easy installation isn't enough. How does it actually feel and perform on the range?
In this video, we're taking a close look at the RISE REV 535, including the trigger pull, break, reset, trigger feel, construction, interchangeable trigger faces, installation, and overall performance.
🔥 REV 535 FEATURES:
• 3–3.5 lb single-stage trigger
• Crisp, clean break
• Extremely short, tactile reset
• No take-up
• Slide-and-Snap installation
• Built-in trigger pins
• Interchangeable flat and curved trigger faces
• TorLok trigger-face retention system
• 6061 aluminum housing
• S7 tool-steel internal components
• Designed for mil-spec AR platforms
• Made in the USA
So is the REV 535 worth the money? Is the new Slide-and-Snap system actually better than a traditional drop-in AR-15 trigger? And most importantly, does this trigger deliver the performance you'd expect from a RISE Armament 535?
We're putting it through real-world testing to find out.
