You don't have to send your lower anywhere. The upper can be mailed to your house and you can pin it on in 45 seconds.

The lower parts in both rifles are pretty simple. Self installation of a trigger should be no problem (including the JP). Trigger selection is a matter of preference. I'm used to two stage triggers from shooting 1911 style pistols so I can make follow shots as fast as my single stage guns. Many traditional rifle shooters prefer the single stange. The advantage of the two stage is you can a have safer overall pull and stillhave the trigger break in terms of ounces.

I have a Jewell which is adjustable in terms of sear engagement as well as overtravel and first and second stage pull weights. The first stage pull can be adjusted down to 26oz on my rifle. You can go lower, but it gets sloppy in reset. Second stage can be adjusted to a few ounces more or a few pounds. I set mine at about a pound for a complete pull of around 2.5 lbs.
