Hello all, My name is Paul Romano and I created PAR Solutions LLC specifically to import and distribute these triggers in the US. When I first saw the inside of the Sidhe BR similar to the pic above it seemed like a simple, elegant and almost sexy design and I wanted to try one. I tried for several months to get them to the US but could not find a way without starting my own business. I took a bit of a flyer here as I have not seen one of these in person yet. The shipping has been a challenge and the first batch is still in transit and UPS says should be here later today. The reputation in Europe of both Sidhe SRL and the triggers is excellent from all reports. My hope is to provide a what appears to be a better mousetrap at a competitive price and do my best to maintain availability.
The EVO generation trigger has some improvements over the pic Johnny shared above. Most notably it is fully enclosed and the trigger pull distance is adjustable. The lever has an option for straight and curved. The first batch ordered are only curved but I plan to get some straight levers in the next batch hopefully later this year if all goes as I hope. Johnny is correct, Luca and the Sidhe team assembles these in Italy and only the ball bearings are purchased from Japan.
If you look at my profile here you will see I generally keep a low profile on the forums. There are always members here with more knowledge and experience but I will try to provide any details where I can.
Thanks to all for their interest.

Ok.
If you would, Address my statement concerning the enclosed structure.
Perhaps we all got spoiled with the Jewel Triggers very low maintenance requirements. If the thing did start to act funny, 95% of the time you could simply flush it with lighter fluid and it would be just fine. A testament to this is in all of my 30 years of Competitive Benchrest, I have never had a reason to take a Jewel apart.
You tout the fact that the enclosed structure of your trigger protects it from debri, be it solid or liquid. That’s fine, but unrealistic in the real world of Short Range Benchrest. Shooters say, “well, it’s your responsibility to make sure something does not get in there, whether through the cleaning process or dust blowing during the match”. let’s here that opinion when YOUR trigger fails half way though a Match and you have to either take it apart or have a spare on hand.
I have four Bix & Andy Benchrest Triggers. They are phenomenal. Is it any better than a Jewel. On the target? no. I darned sure cannot tell the difference. I try to set all of my triggers at 1.5 Ounces
The biggest drawback to the Bix & Andy is if anything, and I mean anything, gets in there, it’s going to fail.
I just had to clean one of mine. When I opened it, I could not see the problem. Possibly some film accumulated from countless cleaning of the barrel, despite my best efforts. I cleaned it as always, following Bullet Central’s instructions, and it works great again. Heck, the alcohol bath I used didn’t even change color.
So. Here is my question. Will your trigger be user friendly in the cleaning process If it does quit functioning. Or will it tolerate a little more fouling as opposed to the Bix &Andy.
