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 a refined evolution in forced-reset trigger technology from Rare Breed. Engineered for the discerning AR-15 owner who demands precision and repeatability, this trigger system delivers a single-stage pull with a mechanical forced-reset function that requires the shooter to maintain forward pressure on the trigger shoe after each shot. The result is a consistent, fast-resetting trigger cycle that rewards disciplined trigger control.

Overview

Rare Breed has established itself as a leader in the forced-reset trigger market, and the FRT-15L3 is their latest three-position variant designed specifically for the AR-15 platform. Unlike standard two-position triggers, this unit offers a safe position, a semi-automatic position, and a third position that enables the forced-reset functionality. The single-stage design provides a crisp, predictable break with no take-up, making it ideal for shooters who want a direct mechanical connection between trigger input and hammer release. The FRT-15L3 Single-Stage (3-Position) Forced Reset Trigger for the AR-15 is built for users who understand the mechanics of forced-reset operation and value the enhanced control it provides.
