FRT-15L3 Single-Stage (3-Position) Forced Reset Trigger for the AR-15

The FRT-15L3 Single-Stage (3-Position) Forced Reset Trigger for the AR-15 represents the latest evolution in forced reset trigger technology from Rare Breed. Engineered for shooters who demand precise control over their rate of fire, this trigger system delivers a unique three-position selector that provides standard semi-automatic function, a forced-reset binary-style mode, and a safe position. Unlike standard triggers, the FRT-15L3 forces the trigger forward after each shot, enabling rapid follow-up shots while maintaining the mechanical discipline of a single-stage pull. This unit is designed exclusively for the AR-15 platform and is manufactured to Rare Breed’s exacting tolerances, ensuring consistent performance across a wide range of upper receiver and bolt carrier group configurations.

Overview

The FRT-15L3 Single-Stage (3-Position) Forced Reset Trigger for the AR-15 is a drop-in trigger group that replaces your factory trigger assembly without requiring permanent modifications to your lower receiver. It utilizes a patented forced-reset mechanism that physically returns the trigger shoe to its forward position after each discharge, allowing the shooter to fire again immediately upon releasing and re-applying trigger pressure. The three-position selector includes a safe position, a standard semi-automatic position, and the forced-reset position. Each position is clearly marked and provides tactile feedback during selection. The trigger pull weight is set at a crisp 4.5 to 5.5 pounds across all positions, with minimal overtravel and a clean break characteristic of Rare Breed’s single-stage design.
