Overview

The forced reset trigger system is designed to mechanically reset the trigger forward after each shot, allowing the shooter to maintain a steady firing rhythm. The FRT-15L3 (Flat) Single-Stage (3-Position) Forced Reset Trigger for the AR-15 uses a single-stage pull with a crisp break, reducing the need for excessive finger movement. The flat trigger profile minimizes lateral torque, improving accuracy during rapid strings. This trigger is a drop-in component for standard AR-15 lower receivers and is compatible with mil-spec safety selectors and hammer pins.
