FRT-15C3™ Two-Stage (3-Position) Forced Reset Trigger for the AR-15

The FRT-15C3™ Two-Stage (3-Position) Forced Reset Trigger for the AR-15 represents a precision-engineered advancement in forced reset trigger technology. Designed and manufactured by Rare Breed, this trigger system offers a distinct three-position selector that provides the operator with safe, semi-automatic, and forced reset modes. Built for the AR-15 platform, the FRT-15C3™ delivers a crisp, predictable trigger pull that enhances shooter control without sacrificing reliability. Each unit is machined from heat-treated steel and finished with a corrosion-resistant coating to withstand extended use in varied environments.

Overview

The FRT-15C3™ Two-Stage (3-Position) Forced Reset Trigger for the AR-15 is a drop-in replacement trigger group that redefines the interface between shooter and firearm. Unlike standard triggers, the forced reset mechanism physically returns the trigger forward after each shot, allowing the user to manage round-to-round timing with deliberate finger control. The two-stage design provides a defined take-up wall followed by a clean break, while the third position enables the forced reset function. Rare Breed engineered this trigger with stringent quality control, ensuring each unit meets exacting tolerances for consistent performance across a wide range of AR-15 lower receivers.

Features & Specs

• Three-position selector: safe, semi-automatic, and forced reset mode with tactile and audible detent feedback
• Two-stage trigger pull: approximately 4.5 to 5.5 pounds with a distinct first stage wall and a clean second stage break
• Drop-in design: includes pre-assembled trigger shoe, hammer, disconnector, and selector for direct installation without specialized tools

The FRT-15C3™ utilizes a forced reset cam that physically resets the trigger forward after each cycle, preventing hammer follow and ensuring positive sear engagement. The trigger shoe features a flat-faced profile with serrations for consistent finger placement. All internal components are constructed from billet steel with a nitride finish, providing enhanced wear resistance and lubricity. The unit is compatible with standard AR-15 mil-spec lower receivers and does not require modification to the fire control pocket.

Who It’s For

The FRT-15C3™ Two-Stage (3-Position) Forced Reset Trigger for the AR-15 is intended for experienced shooters who demand precision trigger control and a mechanical forced reset function. This trigger is suited for competitive shooters training under time constraints, firearms instructors demonstrating advanced manipulation techniques, and enthusiasts who appreciate the engineering behind forced reset mechanisms. It is not recommended for novice shooters or those unfamiliar with the operational characteristics of forced reset triggers, as the training required to safely and effectively use the third position is significant. The two-stage design also benefits precision shooters who prefer a defined trigger wall for shot placement.
