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

The FRT-15L3 (Flat) Single-Stage (3-Position) Forced Reset Trigger for the AR-15 represents the next evolution in forced reset trigger technology from Rare Breed. Engineered for shooters who demand precision and speed, this flat-faced trigger offers a distinct tactile advantage over curved designs. The FRT-15L3 delivers a consistent, single-stage pull with a forced reset mechanism that allows for rapid follow-up shots without the complexity of full-auto components. Each unit is machined from billet steel and finished with a durable nitride coating for reduced friction and extended service life.

Overview

The FRT-15L3 (Flat) Single-Stage (3-Position) Forced Reset Trigger for the AR-15 is a drop-in trigger system designed for standard AR-15 lower receivers. It operates across three distinct positions: Safe, Semi-Automatic, and Forced Reset. In the forced reset position, the trigger mechanism physically pushes the trigger shoe forward after each shot, resetting the sear instantly. This design allows the shooter to achieve high rates of fire while maintaining positive control over each trigger pull. The flat trigger shoe reduces trigger travel distance and provides a consistent finger placement point for repeatable accuracy.
