Franklin Armory has released a new binary trigger for the 10/22.

For those of you that don't know what a binary trigger does it allows you to shoot two rounds with one trigger pull and release.

A selector will allow you to shoot semi or binary.

Some of my shooting partners have them on AR-15 and they are really cool.

Here is a link and you can read all about it. Franklin Armory releases new binary trigger for 10/22 platforms

Throwing a lot of rounds down range fast is fun once or twice. Then u figure out someone has to buy a ton of mags and load them.

It's like a boat.....i'd love to have one BUT really happy to have a friend with one. ;)

That's funny! I have three friends that have boats. When I'm invited to go I say no. Why, because I REFUSE to be a DECK HAND and buy gas.

They do more beer drinking than fishing and that's another reason. They get inebriated and want me to pilot the boat.
I don't like drinkers and drunks!

Fun? Maybe for the videos. Useful? Only if Vampires and Werewolves are fighting in the street in front of my house. Buy a trigger that costs more than my 10-22's? No. I have a Volquartsen 2 1/2 pound trigger in my 10-22 takedown. That was enough to spend, even though it was heavily discounted on sale.

Been seeing info on these and first thing I thought of was the bump-fire.

I thought of the same thing, BUMP Stock. You can turn off the binary though.

Could one turn off the Bump Stock? I've never seen one in person, just on videos.

If one continued shooting like the videos it would probably ruin your barrel.

I've shot 223 and AKs with the binary and what I've found is they are good for double taps then turn it off.

Those Bump Stocks ruined a lot of AR barrels. If your using a barrel made for fully automatic fire then your good to go.

My point is that they are just another way to push the line and may well be banned like the bump stock once the word gets around.
We don't need to keep handing them more "bans" to point to as being a president so they can keep chipping away.

I was thinking that multiple shots might be useful when squirrel and rabbit hunting but I remembered my 20 ga. pump shotgun does a great job ...maybe I don't really need one .

I used to use a shotgun on rabbits but now I use a .22. They have a longer range, make less noise and I don't have to pick pellets out of the meat.

👁 got lucky and ordered one from Franklin a few days ago. Planning on installing it in my “SPARE“ ~36 YO 10/22 Trigger Group Pack to make it ”swappable”, and using it in my two 10/22’s.
If there’s any problems don’t want to have a firearm down for any length of time.

Don’t want to touch the existing trigger packs on either carbine.😎

There is really no comparison between a binary trigger and a bump stock. I have several of the Franklin triggers for my AR's. While you can dump ammo with both, the best practice for a binary is to use controlled pairs. The binary trigger as a very stable platform in the AR-15 while the bumpfire is bouncing around most of the time.

With practice you will find that you can hold the second shot, require the target or engage another target and then release. The release is often more accurate than the pull because there is less disturbance to the axis of the rifle. My Franklin's are an excellent trigger in both semi and binary. When I switch the lower to a dedicated .22lr it is a lot of cheap fun as well.

I have not heard yet if anyone has successfully put one of the 10/22 triggers in a PC Carbine but if it works I would be interested in upgrading my PC.

Took about 7 days...ordered it regular ground.
Installation took about 30 minutes. Need to run all the Dry Fire Function safety checks a second time then I will drop it in a receiver and give it a go.😎💥💥💥

So far the Franklin Binary trigger is working as advertised. Installation took about 1/2 hour.
It’s FASSST! 💥💥💥💥
I‘ve fired Aquila Super Extra CWRN and CWHP with the BX-1 10 round magazines and tri mag adapter.
Haven’t tried the larger BX mags yet but 👁 will soon!
Glad it’s also got the Semi selector too.
Definitely glad 👁 purchased this.💥💥💥💥😎

Great, thanks for the update!! All the guys I know that have them use the binary option sparingly after the novelty wore off. It's a great double tap option to have for hunting. So why have it some may ask? You just have to try it and you'll know!!
Try not to burn that barrel up!! lol.

One thing the Binary trigger alerted me to. When 👁 serviced my BX-1 mags,
145880

145881


the screw that holds the magazine shell together was a little too tight...slowing down the feed speed. When the FTF (Fail to Feed) mag issue started, 👁 backed off a little on the assembly screw...and now it can feed as fast as the Binary trigger. 💥💥💥💥😁

Update:
All 7 of my BX-1 10 round magazines run the Binary mode with 0-Issues…even the original 36 year old magazine.
Had to adjust the feed speed in a few of them to keep up with the Binary speed…no biggie.
Never touched the magazine tension springs since my las servicing of all 7 mags…just the shell case screw.
So far…200 rounds of Aquila Super Extra RN and HP ammo.
The Trigger Group and housing I’m using is a spare that is ~36 years old…it fits fine.
Shooting out of a Stain (S) Less Steel 10/22 Takedown with ~16.40” barrel and flash hider attached.
Still focusing on tightening my double tap groups…getting tighter with each sesssion.
I have taken the Trigger Group out several times for inspection…everything new is in place…no signs of issues.
One thing to note to anyone purchasing The Franklin Binary Trigger:
You will have to remove BOTH Selector Paddles to remove the Receiver from the stock for Inspection, Cleaning, and Servicing…a small screw (a 1/16” Hex Key Included) holds them on. Not sure if I’m going to use Locktite on the screws as I clean my firearms a LOT.
Next test will be Mag dumping with a BX-25…which I’m not in a hurry to do for cost reasons…

once you go binary... um yeah. careful with that dang safety switch spring during install Clear the room first and assure it cant hide.

I tooled out the chassis so the Franklin paddles do not have to be removed when service and cleaning on disassemble. It doesnt fire on release about 30% of the time.
