Rare Breed FRT-15L3® (MIL) — Mil-Spec AR-15 forced reset trigger

For shooters who want the traditional Mil-Spec selector and pin set, the Rare Breed FRT-15L3® (MIL) delivers single-stage forced reset performance in a familiar package. This drop-in 3-position FRT trigger (Safe / Semi / FRT®) is 100%% made and assembled in the USA — the authentic Mil-Spec forced reset trigger for sale, direct from Rare Breed Triggers.

How the forced reset trigger works

In FRT® mode, the FRT-15L3® (MIL) 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?

  • Single-sided Mil-Spec selector (0/90/180): the classic look and feel, with FRT® performance.
  • Mil-Spec hammer & trigger pins included for a familiar, secure install.
  • Single-stage break: clean and fast, with no take-up.
  • Drop-in fit on mil-spec AR-15 lowers — no gunsmithing required.

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.
