 Delta Velocity Gen 2 3MR

The Gen 2 3MR trigger assembly for AR-platform rifles from Delta Velocity is a drop-in fire control system featuring Safe, Semi-Automatic and an improved, patented, positive-reset “3rd” mode that dramatically reduces split times between shots.

The positive-reset function works by transferring force from the bolt carrier to assist the trigger back onto the front sear. The trigger features no take-up or overtravel, and both the Semi and 3rd-mode positions exhibit a non-adjustable 4-lb., 8-oz., pull weight.

Though not a forced-reset trigger, the Gen2 3MR is claimed to be the most efficient assisted-reset design ever made and the only one approved by the ATF as non-NFA.

Components are treated with nickel Teflon, and the trigger ships with bilateral selector paddles of various lengths and thicknesses, a 1/16th hex wrench, and several plunger springs for fine-tuning the hammer plunger to prevent malfunctions and enhance performance.

MSRP is $349. For more information, visit deltavusa.com.
