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

If you have been tracking the evolution of AR-15 triggers, you already know the name Rare Breed. The FRT-15L3 Single-Stage (3-Position) Forced Reset Trigger for the AR-15 represents a refined take on forced-reset technology, designed for shooters who want a fast, repeatable cycling experience without compromising manual control. This is not a gimmick; it is a purpose-built component that changes how you interact with the trigger shoe.

The FRT-15L3 Single-Stage (3-Position) Forced Reset Trigger for the AR-15 operates on a simple mechanical principle: the trigger resets forward automatically during the bolt carrier cycle, allowing you to pull again immediately. The result is a consistent, rapid cadence that feels natural once you get the hang of it. Rare Breed has dialed in the geometry to reduce over-travel and provide a crisp break every time. Whether you are a competitive shooter or a firearms enthusiast who enjoys pushing your rifle’s limits, this trigger delivers predictable performance round after round.

Overview

The FRT-15L3 is a direct drop-in trigger pack that fits standard AR-15 lower receivers. It comes pre-assembled with a single-stage, 3-position selector. The three positions are safe, semi-automatic, and forced-reset. In the forced-reset position, the trigger shoe moves forward with the bolt carrier, so your finger must release pressure before the next shot. This mechanism is entirely mechanical; no batteries, no electronics, just precision-machined steel and aluminum components. Rare Breed has built this unit to withstand high round counts while maintaining a consistent trigger pull weight.

Features & Specs

• Three-position selector: safe, semi-automatic, and forced-reset mode. The forced-reset position is clearly marked and requires deliberate selector rotation to engage.
• Single-stage trigger with a clean, consistent break. Pull weight is factory-set to approximately 4.5 to 5.5 pounds, with minimal creep and a positive reset.
• Drop-in design with pre-installed pins and springs. No gunsmithing required; you can install it in minutes with basic tools. Compatible with mil-spec and most billet lower receivers.

• Manufactured by Rare Breed in the United States. All components are heat-treated steel or 7075 aluminum. The trigger shoe is contoured for a comfortable finger placement during rapid fire.
• The FRT-15L3 Single-Stage (3-Position) Forced Reset Trigger for the AR-15 is designed for semi-automatic AR-15 pattern rifles. It functions with standard bolt carrier groups and carbine or rifle-length gas systems.
• Includes a detailed instruction manual and warranty registration card. Rare Breed offers a one-year warranty against manufacturing defects.

Who It’s For

This trigger is for shooters who understand the difference between a rapid semi-automatic cadence and a full-automatic function. The FRT-15L3 Single-Stage (3-Position) Forced Reset Trigger for the AR-15 is not a machine gun conversion device. It is a legal, mechanical trigger system that requires a trained trigger finger to operate effectively. If you are a competition shooter looking to shave split times, a collector who appreciates innovative firearm components, or a law enforcement officer training for controlled pairs, this trigger will reward practice and discipline. It is also ideal for the home builder who wants a premium trigger that stands out from standard mil-spec units.

Before purchasing, ensure your intended use complies with all local, state, and federal laws. The forced-reset position is designed for range use and training scenarios. It is not recommended for defensive carry or duty use due to the training required to operate it safely.
