Shotty pics, but you can see pretty much all the detail.

It has a bearing, its like the CP triggers bearing, in that its narrow and their is only one.
It has some side to side play, but not much, not nearly as much as the stocker.
It feels pretty nice in the gun and has a smooth pull, just like any other trigger out there.
The trigger itself is wide at the bottom and scallops at the top. It looks weird as hell when you look at it from the front, but is surprisingly VERY comfortable.

Shooting it shows that its just as fast as any other trigger, and actually seems to be a little quicker than my betterones trigger. Albeit, its definetly heavier, it seems to have just as quick of a return. It also comes with a new pretravel adjustment screw, its rounded on the tip rather than having a "crater" on it like the stock one.

The magnet also seems to be a little stronger than others, more like the stocker. However, this seems to be a good thing since it is also heavier.
It comes with a post travel adjustment that leaves something to be desired.
Its a metal screw, like most and is only a metal screw. Also, when adjusted flush with the face of the trigger, it stops JUST after the activation. Not having an activation adjustment seems like a bad thing, it needs it or atleast a shorter post travel screw. I happen to have onhand a nylon tipped adjustment that was the right size. So, I quickly replaced the stock one with the shorter, nylon tipped one I had. :tup:

Overall, I gave it an 7 out of 10. But after some considerations such as price, and features, I gave it a final rating of 8.

For you lazy tl:dr people...
Pros:
Quick reset
Nice "Unique" Looks
Bearing
and PRICE omg, just 20 bucks! :tup: :tup:

Cons:
Nice "Unique" Looks, that some might not like.
Bearing, that needs some help. The side to side is a bit anoying but im just used to the betterones trigger.

Worth the 20 Bucks IMHO.

There you have it.

None taken, I plan on it.
But Im going to try before I buy. Problem is, my buddy misplaced his in his black hole of a room...
I bought this one to try out because it was a bearing trigger for cheap. I also liked the shape.

.eh?

OK. I tried the VP...
Not as heavenly as everyone makes it out to be.
Has less side to side, but more cheap feel. IDK why, it just does. Im used to having a nylon tipped trigger stop so the noise is kind of annoying. And the one I tried had one magnet it it and it was stiffer than the stock one. Didn't like that. It was also narrower than I like, Its nice and round and comfy but just too narrow....
IDK, the price is just too much. Almost 40 vs the 22 shipped for my ANS.
