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

Overview

The frt-15c3 two-stage (3-position) forced reset trigger for the ar-15 represents a refined evolution in forced-reset trigger technology. Manufactured by Rare Breed, this unit combines a true two-stage pull with a three-position selector, giving the shooter deliberate control over firing modes. The forced-reset mechanism mechanically returns the trigger forward after each shot, allowing the shooter to focus on trigger discipline while maintaining a rapid cyclic rate. This is not a binary trigger; it is a purpose-built component designed for trained users who demand predictable, repeatable trigger performance in their AR-15 platform.

Features & Specs

Rare Breed engineered the frt-15c3 two-stage (3-position) forced reset trigger for the ar-15 to meet the needs of serious shooters. The two-stage break provides a distinct wall before sear release, reducing the chance of a negligent discharge during high-stress use. The three-position selector offers safe, semi-automatic, and forced-reset modes, each clearly indexed for tactile confirmation.

• Two-stage trigger pull with a clean, predictable break and short reset
• Three-position selector: Safe, Semi, and Forced-Reset (FRT) mode
• Drop-in cassette design for straightforward installation into standard AR-15 lower receivers
• Manufacturer: Rare Breed | Category: Triggers
• Durable steel construction with corrosion-resistant finish

Each frt-15c3 two-stage (3-position) forced reset trigger for the ar-15 is tested at the factory to ensure consistent function across a wide range of ammunition and upper configurations. The forced-reset mode requires deliberate trigger finger control and is not recommended for use with lightweight competition triggers or modified bolt carriers.

Who It’s For

This trigger is intended for experienced AR-15 owners who understand forced-reset operation and can safely manage the increased rate of fire. It suits competitive shooters in open-class matches, private range enthusiasts, and collectors of advanced trigger systems. The frt-15c3 two-stage (3-position) forced reset trigger for the ar-15 is not designed for law enforcement or military duty use, nor for shooters unfamiliar with forced-reset mechanics. If you already own a standard Rare Breed FRT and want a two-stage pull weight with a more defined break, this model is a direct upgrade.

• Experienced AR-15 builders and shooters with safe handling habits
• Competitors in 3-gun or outlaw matches where forced-reset triggers are permitted
• Shooters who want a two-stage trigger with the capability of rapid follow-up shots
• Users who prefer a mechanical reset over a binary or full-auto conversion
