Geissele Automatics AR Components
About Geissele Automatics
Geissele Automatics was founded in 2004 by Bill Geissele with a mission to create match-grade triggers for competitive shooting.
The company started in North Wales, Pennsylvania, with their first product being the Hi-Speed National Match trigger designed for CMP and NRA Hi-Power Rifle competitions.
By 2005, the U.S. military approached Geissele to develop select-fire triggers, leading to the creation of the Super Select-Fire (SSF) trigger adopted by USSOCOM.
The company has grown from a trigger manufacturer to a complete firearms and components producer, earning numerous military and law enforcement contracts.
Today, Geissele Automatics operates under the motto "We Are Weaponmakers" and continues to serve military, law enforcement, and civilian markets with precision-engineered products.
