Forced reset trigger

However, the shooter must still manually pull the trigger each time it resets for any subsequent shot to be fired.

[3] A patent for a forced reset trigger titled "Flex Fire Technology" was filed by Thomas Allen Graves in 2015.

[4] Graves states that he initially began developing forced reset trigger technology in the 1970s, focusing on modifications to Colt Navy action revolvers.

Over the following decades, Graves continued refining this technology, applying it to platforms such as the Ruger 10/22 carbine and the Bersa Thunder handgun.

In 2014, he claims to have invented a forced reset trigger specifically for the AR-15 platform, subsequently acquiring a patent for it in 2015.
