Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Forced Reset Trigger (FRT)?

A Forced Reset Trigger (FRT) is a semi-automatic trigger mechanism that uses the firearm's recoil to push the trigger forward, resetting it instantly. This allows for a very high rate of fire while remaining legal as a semi-automatic device.

How does the FRT achieve rapid semi-automatic fire?

The FRT mechanism resets the trigger forward using the gun's recoil immediately after firing. This allows the shooter's finger to pull the trigger again almost instantaneously, enabling rapid, single shots per pull.

Is the Forced Reset Trigger legal?

Yes, the FRT is legal because it functions as a semi-automatic trigger, meaning each pull of the trigger results in only one shot fired. It does not convert a firearm into a machine gun.

What are the potential downsides of using an FRT?

Using an FRT for high-speed shooting can increase heat and wear on critical firearm components like the bolt and suppressor. This means increased maintenance is required to ensure reliability and longevity.
