In this first Greyhive exclusive, Nick from EagleRun23 builds an FRT-equipped AR-15 lower on camera — mistakes, projectiles, and all. Nick, who's been making firearms videos on YouTube since 2016 and earned a play button along the way, put this build together with a Freedom Accelerated force reset trigger sourced from Combat Armory, an Odenworks FRT-specific buffer tube and flat wire spring, and a lower from Sharps Shooting Supply out of Scott City, Kansas. As he puts it, this is content he simply couldn't film for a mainstream platform. The video is equal parts function explainer and honest troubleshooting session — Nick figures out how the FRT actually works in real time, gets a buffer weight stuck, nearly launches a spring-loaded detent, and works through a drop-in trigger's safety-bar quirk. If you're planning an FRT build, his gotchas are the roadmap. Key Takeaways A force reset trigger uses the bolt carrier group's rearward travel to force the trigger — and your finger — forward, resetting for the next shot. Nick ran a Freedom Accelerated FRT from Combat Armory paired with an Odenworks FRT-specific buffer tube and flat wire spring. The trigger measured a firm pull —…
