Wide Open Trigger

Description

The Wide Open Trigger delivers rapid, consistent resets for AR-15 platforms with a mechanical precision that outperforms mil-spec triggers. Engineered by Rare Breed Triggers, this drop-in unit eliminates creep while maintaining positive engagement—no gimmicks, just repeatable performance.

What you get

• Hard reset trigger mechanism for faster follow-up shots
• CNC-machined 4140 steel components with black nitride finish
• 3.5 lb pull weight (±0.25 lb tolerance)
• Pre-assembled housing with anti-walk pins included
• Compatible with mil-spec AR-15 lower receivers

Build and finish

The trigger shoe, hammer, and disconnector are cut from 4140 steel and treated with a black nitride coating that withstands carbon buildup. Unlike cast or MIM parts, the fully machined engagement surfaces maintain consistent break characteristics beyond 10,000 rounds. The sear geometry is optimized to reduce lock time without compromising hammer fall energy.

Spring tension is calibrated to achieve a crisp 3.5 lb pull while preventing bounce during rapid fire. The housing features radiused corners to prevent snagging during installation, and the included anti-walk pins are knurled for tool-free adjustment.

Compatible platforms

• AR-15 pattern rifles with mil-spec lower receivers
• Pistol-caliber carbines (requires standard hammer clearance)
• Not compatible with AR-10 or proprietary lowers

Installation notes

Remove your existing fire control group and drop the Wide Open Trigger into place—no fitting or stoning required. The unit ships pre-greased with high-pressure lubricant at all contact points. Torque the anti-walk pins to 25 in-lbs using the included hex key.
