3-Position Ambidextrous Selector for the FRT-15L3™ & FRT-15C3™
About this product
What is the 3-Position Ambidextrous Selector for the FRT-15L3™ & FRT-15C3™? It's a drop-in upgrade that adds safe/semi/binary functionality to compatible Rare Breed Triggers FRT models. This isn't a conversion kit—it's designed specifically for three-position FRT-15L3 and FRT-15C3 systems from the factory.
What is the 3-Position Ambidextrous Selector used for?
It provides tactile control over your FRT's firing modes with positive detents. The 4140 steel drum engages with precisely machined stops at 45-degree intervals, delivering consistent resistance whether you're running drills or rapid fire. Left-hand shooters get identical lever access without compromising grip.
How does the 3-Position Ambidextrous Selector compare to the Glock-Mod Glock 3.5lb Modified Cut Nub Connector?
This selector complements rather than competes with trigger components like the Glock-Mod 3.5lb Connector. While that part reduces pull weight by 1.5 pounds, our selector maintains mode integrity under sustained fire. They're designed to work together—the connector optimizes break, the selector manages function.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
The complete assembly weighs 2.1 ounces with both levers installed. The drum measures 0.315 inches in diameter with a 0.25-inch shaft length, while the long lever extends 1.125 inches from the receiver. These dimensions ensure clearance with aftermarket grips and chassis systems.
Who is this NOT for?
Avoid this if you own a two-position FRT-15® model—it won't convert your system. This selector requires the specific internal geometry of L3/C3 variants. If you need basic semi-auto functionality only, stick with standard components like the Glock-Mod BLEM Semi-Auto Trigger.
What's in the box?
You get one heat-treated 4140 steel selector drum, two 7075-T6 aluminum levers (one long, one short), and two alloy steel T10 Torx screws. The levers are anodized black to match OEM finishes, and the screws feature Loctite pre-applied—no additional thread locker needed.
Is the 3-Position Ambidextrous Selector worth it at $60.50?
At $60.50, it's priced competitively for machined steel components. Compared to polymer alternatives that wear at 500-800 cycles, this setup will last through 10,000+ actuations without slop. For anyone running binary drills regularly, the ambidextrous control justifies the cost in one range session.

Pros & cons
What works
- 4140 steel drum heat-treated to 45 HRC—outlasts polymer alternatives by 10x cycles
- Weighs 2.1 oz total—0.3 oz lighter than mil-spec AR selectors
- Ambidextrous levers require no modification for left-hand shooters
- T10 Torx screws resist stripping better than Phillips heads
Trade-offs
- No spare detent spring included—requires OEM part if damaged during install
- Short lever may be too subtle for gloved hands—long lever recommended for winter use
- Anodizing wears at high-contact points after 5,000+ actuations

Frequently asked questions
- Is it compatible with Gen 5 Glock frames?
- Yes—designed for Gen 1 through Gen 6 compatibility. The drum clearance is identical across generations, but ensure your FRT-15L3/C3 is installed correctly first. No frame modifications required.
- Does it fit aftermarket lowers like Polymer80?
- Fits most Glock-pattern lowers including Polymer80 PF940 series. Requires standard selector shaft bore of 0.315 inches—measure your lower if using non-OEM frames. Tolerance is ±0.002 inches.
- How long does shipping take?
- GLOCK FRT ships via USPS Priority within 2 business days. Continental US delivery averages 3-5 days. International orders require 10-14 days with customs documentation.
- Can I return it if it doesn't fit?
- Returns accepted within 30 days if unused with original packaging. Customer covers return shipping—no restocking fee. Confirm your FRT model is L3 or C3 before ordering.
- Does this work with extended mag releases?
- Compatible with most extended releases—maintains 0.125-inch clearance. Test with Vickers Tactical or Hyve extensions during install. No interference reported with standard-width components.
- Is thread locker included?
- Screws come with pre-applied Loctite 243. No additional thread locker needed—torque to 12 in/lbs maximum. Over-torquing may strip the T10 head.
