Fine-Tune Your Fury: The FRT-15 ALB Adjustable Locking Bar – Unrivaled Precision for Forced Reset Triggers
For owners of the revolutionary FRT-15, WOT (Wide Open Trigger), or Tommy Triggers – the cutting-edge forced reset trigger systems that redefine AR-15 performance – the FRT-15 ALB (Adjustable Locking Bar) is the ultimate upgrade. This isn’t just a replacement part; it’s a precision-engineered component designed to address common issues, enhance reliability, and unlock the full, consistent potential of your forced reset trigger, ensuring every shot is crisp, positive, and perfectly timed.
The Crucial Role of the Locking Bar in Forced Reset Triggers:
In forced reset triggers, the locking bar plays a critical role in controlling the timing and feel of the trigger reset. As the bolt carrier group (BCG) cycles, it interacts with the locking bar to mechanically force the trigger forward, preparing it for the next shot. However, variations in manufacturing tolerances, buffer systems, and ammunition can sometimes lead to issues like:
- “Dead triggers” or inconsistent resets: Where the trigger doesn’t properly reset after a shot, requiring manual manipulation or causing a frustrating stoppage.
- Light primer strikes or hammer follow: When the hammer travels forward before the bolt is fully in battery, leading to misfires or unsafe conditions.
- “Spongy” or inconsistent trigger feel: Due to original locking bar springs kinking or binding, affecting the tactile feedback and reliability of the reset.
The FRT-15 ALB Adjustable Locking Bar is specifically designed to overcome these challenges, transforming your shooting experience from inconsistent to flawlessly precise.
Unlocking Unrivaled Performance: The ALB Advantage
The FRT-15 ALB isn’t just a static component; it’s an adjustable system that allows you to fine-tune the timing of your forced reset trigger’s release. This crucial adjustability is what sets it apart, providing a multitude of benefits:
- Eliminates “Dead Triggers” and Light Primer Strikes: By allowing you to precisely adjust the trigger release timing, the ALB ensures that the hammer is released only when the bolt is fully in battery. This critical synchronization prevents hammer follow and eliminates frustrating dead triggers, maximizing reliability and safety.
- Superior Reset Reliability and Feel: The ALB completely replaces the often-problematic factory locking bar springs with a self-contained, robust system. This eliminates kinking and binding issues, providing consistent downward and rearward spring pressure to the trigger. The result is an audibly and tangibly more positive, crisp, and reliable trigger reset, shot after shot.
- Enhanced Versatility Across Platforms: This adjustable timing allows the FRT-15, WOT, or Tommy Trigger to function reliably across a wider range of AR-pattern firearms and calibers. Whether you’re running 5.56 NATO, .223 Wylde, .300 Blackout, 9mm, .22LR, or even 7.62x39mm in an AR platform, the ALB provides the tuning capability to optimize performance, adapting to different gas systems, buffer weights, and ammunition types.
- Optimized for Various Buffer Weights and Springs: No longer limited by factory tolerances, the ALB enables the use of a broader spectrum of buffer weights and springs, allowing you to further customize your rifle’s recoil impulse and cycling characteristics without compromising trigger function.
- Increased Safety and Consistency: By ensuring proper timing and preventing out-of-battery discharges, the ALB significantly enhances the overall safety of your forced reset trigger system. This reliability translates directly into greater confidence and consistency during rapid fire or critical engagements.
- Easy, Drop-In Installation with On-the-Fly Adjustability: The FRT-15 ALB is designed as a self-contained, drop-in replacement for your existing locking bar. Installation is straightforward. Furthermore, its intelligent design incorporates adjustment shims and a low-profile contact piece bolt, allowing for simple, tool-assisted adjustments even while the ALB is installed in the rifle at the range. This unprecedented on-the-fly tuning capability means you can quickly dial in your trigger for optimal performance in any given setup.
Precision Engineering and Durability:
Crafted from high-grade, durable materials, the FRT-15 ALB is built to withstand the rigorous demands of rapid-fire operation. Precision machining ensures perfect fitment and smooth, reliable interaction with your bolt carrier group. It’s an investment in the long-term performance and reliability of your advanced trigger system.
Kit Contents (Typical):
A complete FRT-15 ALB Adjustable Locking Bar kit generally includes:
- The ALB assembly itself.
- Multiple adjustment shims (e.g., 2 installed, 1 spare) to fine-tune timing.
- A spare contact bolt for added longevity.
- A 1/16 hex key for convenient adjustments.
Compatible with:
The FRT-15 ALB is compatible with:
- Original “Gen 1” and current “Gen 2” FRT-15 triggers.
- WOT (Wide Open Trigger) systems.
- Tommy Triggers.
Please Note: The FRT-15 ALB Adjustable Locking Bar is designed for forced reset triggers (FRT-15, WOT, Tommy Triggers) ONLY and DOES NOT fit or function with any 3-position FRT systems that utilize a different locking bar design. This component does not change or alter the semi-automatic function of your trigger.
Elevate your forced reset trigger experience from great to truly exceptional. The FRT-15 ALB Adjustable Locking Bar delivers the precision, reliability, and adjustability you need to dominate the range and beyond.
