Enhanced Reset Trigger – Rare Breed FRT 15 E3
Overview
The enhanced reset trigger – Rare Breed FRT 15 E3 represents a precision-engineered fire control component designed for AR-15 pattern rifles. This third-generation forced reset trigger (FRT) system from Rare Breed is manufactured to exacting tolerances, providing a distinct mechanical cycling sequence that resets the trigger under recoil impulse. Unlike standard drop-in triggers, the FRT 15 E3 utilizes a patented cam-based mechanism to achieve a forced reset, offering the shooter a consistent and repeatable trigger pull with every cycle. The unit is constructed from heat-treated steel components and precision-machined aluminum housing to ensure dimensional stability under sustained use. Each enhanced reset trigger – Rare Breed FRT 15 E3 undergoes individual function testing prior to packaging, verifying sear engagement angles, reset timing, and trigger pull weight within the manufacturer’s specified parameters.
Features & Specs
The enhanced reset trigger – Rare Breed FRT 15 E3 is built around a three-lever cam system that mechanically forces the trigger forward after each shot, eliminating the need for the shooter to fully release the trigger before the next engagement. This system is housed in a billet 7075-T6 aluminum cassette that drops directly into standard mil-spec lower receivers without permanent modification. The trigger pull weight is factory set at approximately 4.5 to 5.5 pounds with a crisp break, and the reset stroke is mechanically constrained to approximately 0.25 inches. The hammer is constructed from hardened S7 tool steel with a QPQ nitride finish for corrosion resistance and wear longevity.
- Mechanical forced reset system: cam-driven trigger return independent of spring tension alone; allows consistent cycle timing with standard semi-automatic fire control group geometry
- Drop-in cassette design: no gunsmithing required for installation in mil-spec AR-15 lower receivers; includes anti-walk trigger and hammer pins with KNS-style retention clips
- Material specifications: 7075-T6 aluminum housing with Type III hard coat anodizing; S7 tool steel hammer and sear components with QPQ nitride surface treatment; 17-4 PH stainless steel cam pins
Who It’s For
This enhanced reset trigger – Rare Breed FRT 15 E3 is engineered for shooters who require a repeatable, mechanically positive trigger reset under rapid fire strings. It is suited for competitive shooters participating in three-gun, USPSA, or steel challenge matches where split times are critical and trigger consistency must be maintained across hundreds of rounds per match day. Law enforcement and military personnel training with duty carbines may find the forced reset mechanism beneficial for maintaining sight picture and recoil management during high-volume drills. The trigger is also appropriate for experienced firearm enthusiasts who understand the mechanical operation of forced reset systems and desire a component that delivers a distinct tactile and audible reset signal without relying solely on shooter technique. This product is not recommended for novice shooters or those unfamiliar with the function and legal classification of forced reset trigger mechanisms.
