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 a refined evolution in trigger system design from Rare Breed. Engineered for shooters who demand precise control and rapid follow-up shots, this third-generation forced reset trigger builds on proven mechanics with a three-position selector that provides safe, semi-automatic, and forced-reset modes. Unlike standard triggers, the FRT-15L3™ single-stage (3-position) forced reset trigger for the AR-15 uses a mechanical forced reset that returns the trigger forward after each shot, enabling consistent cycling without modifying the firearm’s internal components. This unit is designed for drop-in installation into standard AR-15 lower receivers and requires no permanent alterations to your rifle. As a complete assembly, it replaces your existing trigger group and selector with a purpose-built system suited for competitive shooting, range training, and recreational use.

Features & Specs

• Three-position selector: safe (position 1), semi-automatic (position 2), and forced reset (position 3) modes allow the shooter to choose the appropriate setting for the application.
• Single-stage design with a crisp, consistent break and short reset; the forced reset function mechanically returns the trigger forward after each shot to enable rapid follow-ups.
• Drop-in installation: no gunsmithing required; fits standard mil-spec AR-15 lower receivers without modification to the bolt carrier group or receiver.

Manufactured by Rare Breed under the Triggers category, the FRT-15L3™ single-stage (3-position) forced reset trigger for the AR-15 uses heat-treated steel components with a corrosion-resistant finish for extended service life. The trigger pull weight is factory-set and consistent across all units. This product is a direct replacement for your existing trigger group and includes a specially designed hammer and disconnector engineered for the forced-reset cycle. All components are manufactured to tight tolerances for reliable function with standard AR-15 bolt carrier groups.
