Rare Breed FRT-22® — Ruger® 10/22® forced reset trigger

Bring forced reset performance to America’s favorite rimfire. The official Rare Breed FRT-22® is a complete drop-in replacement trigger for the Ruger® 10/22®, featuring a push-button cross-bolt 3-position safety selector (Safe / Semi / FRT®) and 100%% made and assembled in the USA. Because .22 LR is so inexpensive, the FRT-22® is one of the most fun and affordable ways to experience an FRT® — and it’s the genuine Ruger 10/22 forced reset trigger for sale from the patent holder.

How the forced reset trigger works

In FRT® mode, the FRT-22® uses your firearm’s own cycling to drive the trigger forward into its reset position after every shot — so your next round is ready almost as soon as the gun is. The result is a dramatically faster, smoother and more consistent shooting cadence than a standard trigger. Crucially, it stays fully semi-automatic: the trigger fires one round per pull of the trigger, every time, and must fully reset before it can fire again. Want the details?

Legal & shipping

Forced reset triggers are legal under federal law following Rare Breed’s court victory and 2025 settlement with the United States — see our FRT legal status for the full picture. Some states restrict FRTs, and we do not ship to those jurisdictions; it is your responsibility to know your local laws. Review our FAQs before you order. (General information, not legal advice.)
