The Radian Vertex Trigger is a drop-in single-stage trigger built for AR-15 and AR-10 shooters who want a clean break without the cost or fuss of a tuned competition unit. It delivers a 3.5 to 4 lb pull with no takeup, a crisp break, and a short reset that keeps follow-up shots fast. This is the same trigger Radian Weapons runs in its Model 1 rifle, so it carries proven duty-grade credentials. It works for precision range work, defensive builds, and competition guns alike. Shooters can pick the curved bow version here or the flat-faced variant depending on finger placement preference.
The Vertex uses a forward-positioned trigger bow machined from 1144 carbon steel, paired with an S7 shock-resistant tool steel hammer for durability under hard use. The hammer interface areas are wire-cut for consistent engagement and a repeatable break. The housing is lightweight aluminum with a black hard coat anodized finish, and the assembly drops in as a self-contained unit with no fine-tuning required. It runs on milspec 0.154 inch trigger pins, and the design is built to prevent pin walkout with standard pins, so you skip the anti-walk pin upgrade many cassette triggers demand. Pull weight sits between 3.5 and 4 lbs per Radian specifications, with very low overtravel and a quick reset for controlled strings of fire.
This trigger suits a range of builds, from a precision varmint or competition AR-15 to a duty or home-defense carbine where a clean, predictable break matters. Because it drops in as one module with standard pins, installation is straightforward and there are no springs or sears to manage loose. The flat hard coat housing and 1144 steel bow stand up to heavy round counts. If you are deciding on bow shape, compare the curved version on this page against the flat trigger and choose based on how you index your finger. Made in USA by Radian Weapons.

No. The Vertex design is built to prevent pin walkout when used with standard milspec 0.154 inch pins, so you do not need to add aftermarket anti-walk pins to keep the assembly secure.
Both share the same internals, pull weight, and materials. The difference is the trigger bow shape. This page covers the curved bow; the flat-faced variant changes finger contact and indexing. Choose based on how you prefer to position your finger on the trigger face.
Yes. Radian Weapons manufactures the Vertex Trigger in the United States. It uses a 1144 carbon steel bow, an S7 tool steel hammer, and a hard coat anodized aluminum housing for durability under heavy use.
