Forced Reset Triggers

Upgrade Your AR-15 with a True Performance Trigger

Forced reset triggers (FRTs) are powerful drop-in components that boost your AR-15’s rate of fire — all while keeping it semi-automatic. If you want faster follow-up shots, reduced split times, and a more responsive shooting experience, our top-tier FRTs deliver unmatched performance.

What Is a Forced Reset Trigger?

A forced reset trigger uses your rifle’s bolt carrier group to push the trigger forward after each shot. This design forces the trigger to reset faster than standard models, allowing you to shoot quicker without converting your firearm to full-auto. Unlike binary or match triggers, FRTs speed up performance while maintaining compliance — when used legally.

Why Choose a Forced Reset Trigger?

Shoot Faster: Enjoy faster trigger resets for rapid, controlled fire.
Install Easily: Drop it in with no gunsmith required.
Boost Performance: Fire faster without sacrificing legality in compliant states.
Count on Durability: Run high round counts without worrying about wear.
