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

Overview

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 as a direct drop-in replacement for standard mil-spec trigger groups, this unit offers a three-position selector that provides safe, semi-automatic, and forced-reset fire modes. The FRT-15L3 maintains a consistent single-stage pull weight across all operating modes, ensuring predictable break and reset characteristics. As a complete trigger group assembly, it includes the hammer, trigger, disconnector, selector, and all necessary pins for installation into standard AR-15 lower receivers.

Features & Specs

The FRT-15L3 Single-Stage (3-Position) Forced Reset Trigger for the AR-15 is built around a precision-machined steel housing and hardened internal components. The forced reset mechanism utilizes the firearm’s bolt carrier energy to positively reset the trigger forward after each shot, enabling rapid follow-up shots while maintaining the manual control required for accurate placement. The three-position selector operates with positive detent engagement at each stop.

• Three-position selector: Safe, Semi-Automatic, and Forced Reset modes with tactile and audible detent feedback
• Single-stage trigger pull: Consistent 4.5 to 5.5 pound trigger pull weight across semi and forced reset positions
• Drop-in installation: No gunsmithing required; includes anti-walk pins and spring set for standard AR-15 lower receivers

• Manufacturer: Rare Breed
• Category: Triggers
• Material: Heat-treated steel trigger group housing with nickel-Teflon coated hammer and trigger surfaces
• Compatibility: Mil-spec AR-15, M4, and LR-308 pattern rifles with standard trigger pockets

Each FRT-15L3 unit undergoes functional testing prior to packaging. The trigger group is designed to work with standard AR-15 bolt carrier groups and does not require lightweight or adjustable carriers. The forced reset function is mechanically driven by bolt carrier travel rather than gas system pressure, making it compatible with both direct impingement and piston-operated systems.

Who It’s For

The FRT-15L3 Single-Stage (3-Position) Forced Reset Trigger for the AR-15 is intended for serious shooters who demand reliable trigger performance under rapid fire conditions. This product is suited for competitive shooters participating in action shooting sports where split times matter, as well as firearms enthusiasts who train for speed and accuracy. The single-stage design appeals to users who prefer a consistent, non-staged trigger break without take-up or creep. The three-position selector provides the flexibility to train with standard semi-automatic fire and switch to forced reset mode for high-speed drills without changing trigger groups.

This trigger group is also appropriate for firearms collectors and builders constructing purpose-specific AR-15 configurations. The drop-in design makes it accessible to users with basic armorer skills who want to upgrade their rifle’s trigger system without permanent modifications to the lower receiver. The FRT-15L3 Single-Stage (3-Position) Forced Reset Trigger for the AR-15 maintains compatibility with most aftermarket safety selectors and grip configurations.

• Shooters requiring consistent trigger pull weight across all fire modes
• Users who prefer single-stage triggers with no take-up or over-travel adjustment
