A Forced Reset Trigger (FRT) is an advanced firearm trigger mechanism designed to significantly increase shooting speed and efficiency by utilizing internal mechanical force to reset the trigger automatically after each shot. Unlike conventional triggers that require the shooter to fully release the trigger manually before firing again, the FRT eliminates this delay by forcing the trigger forward under tension as the bolt carrier group moves rearward. This drop-in installation component, primarily designed for AR-15 platforms, enables rapid follow-up shots while maintaining overall precision, control, and reliability. Consequently, it is a highly favored upgrade for competitive shooters, tactical trainers, and firearm enthusiasts seeking maximum performance in high-speed scenarios, though users must carefully verify compatibility and local or federal regulations before purchasing.
Five documents moved the FRT from contested to settled: an ATF letter, a Supreme Court opinion, a district-court ruling, a DOJ settlement, and the agency’s own return notice. Here they are in order.
