So a rare breed trigger (like the FRT-15) is basically this crazy gun part that makes your rifle shoot way faster, almost like a machine gun but technically not the same thing. When you pull the trigger, it uses the gun's recoil to reset itself, so you can fire again super quick, even though you’re still technically pulling the trigger each time.
I've seen people get seriously fired up about it online. Gun rights folks think it’s just a legal way to have more fun at the shooting range, and they don’t want the government telling them what parts they can buy. But people who want stricter gun laws are worried that it makes it way too easy to get around rules banning automatic weapons.
What’s wild is that the legal system keeps going back and forth about whether these should count as "machine guns" or not. It’s honestly become one of those weird loopholes that’s got everybody arguing. Personally, I think it’s kind of crazy how a tiny change in a gun part can stir up so much drama. Wouldn't shock me if this gets argued about for years.
