Rare Breed Trigger

As a team of seasoned gun enthusiasts with extensive experience in firearms technology, we’ve evaluated the Rare Breed Trigger (FRT-15), a forced-reset trigger designed for AR-15 platforms. This innovative system enhances firing speed by mechanically resetting the trigger after each shot, allowing rapid, controlled semi-automatic fire. Constructed with a CNC milled 7075-T6 aluminum housing and stainless steel springs, it boasts durability and a 5-pound pull, appealing to shooters seeking precision and performance. Its drop-in design requires a full-auto bolt carrier and heavy buffer for optimal function, with tuning sometimes necessary. While we recognize its responsiveness and engineering, the FRT-15 has faced legal scrutiny from the ATF, which classifies it as a machine gun—a claim Rare Breed disputes, citing its semi-automatic nature. For enthusiasts, it offers a unique shooting experience, but we advise potential buyers to navigate its contested legal status and consider local regulations before purchasing.
