Question about FRT’s
A few decades ago I had a MAC in 380 and the trigger was horrendous. There was a “sweet spot” in the trigger where it would double and triple and if you could maintain the “sweet spot” you could dump a magazine. However your finger would be numb pretty quick then it would hurt like hell … the technical term for it was Trigger Slap, and it’s the reason why I’ve never bought a n FRT.
Is this the same way the FRT operates?


If you really want something you'll find a way ...
... if you don't you'll find an excuse.

Some have a really soft reset like the Super Selektor, ARC-Fire and Partisan Disruptor.

All my Kabutos have been adequately soft.

I don't know about the stuff out there for the new MAC clones. They seem to have a lot of tuning issues.

FRTs aren't NFA items, but all of my SBRs have them.

I’m not interested in anything for a MAC, I’ve got a f/a M11-nine but I’ve got several Franklin Armory binary’s, the AR’s are early and they are finicky however the one in my MP5, 10/22 and Scorpion are pretty much gtg, the 10/22 being the easiest to run … however there is something attractive about just pulling the trigger back hard enough.

No, they don’t hurt at all

I got an ARC fire combined with an H&R trigger in my lower. You can feel the trigger wiggling, but it doesn’t hurt, but the most I’ve done is maybe 4 or 5 mags in a single range trip. Those puppies get spendy.

I think more ergonomic triggers, plus a softer break and shorter reset make it more enjoyable than that MAC was.

I can’t feel my Rare Breed moving at all.

Partisan Disruptor

I have two of these drop in trigger assemblies (thanks to Mars guidance), both in AR’s. One has a 11.5” barrel and the other has a 16” barrel.

I cannot feel my trigger moving on either of these two rifles. My next venture is to find the best drop in FRT for a Ruger 10/22.
