Who has one of these binary triggers and how do you like it?

I'm leaning towards the BFS-iii the fact that the AR-ii uses MIM parts is keeping me away I want something that is going to last

Or should I just get A Geissele or other drop in trigger?

I had a BFS-iii. Ended up getting rid of it. The nieces and nephew enjoyed shooting it a ton, but that's about all it's useful for. Too complex of a design with too many small parts to be relied upon for serious use. Stick with the Geiselle or grab an $87 Larue. You can get .01 split times if you practice with a good trigger.

I’ve got a Franklin in my AR-45. Runs like a scalded cat and pretty decent in terms of break and weight too. Don’t know if I’d get another; as recommended above a good trigger may be better. I’m a big Hiperfire fan personally.
