The 22TY forced reset trigger is a drop-in disconnector replacement for the Taurus TX22 that resets your trigger on every slide cycle — enabling quick successive pulls at one round per trigger function. CNC machined from 316 stainless steel, backed by a lifetime warranty, and compatible with every TX22 model and generation ever made.
No permanent modifications required. If the forced reset ever fails, the pistol remains fully functional in standard semi-auto — no bricked gun, no range day over.
How It Works
The 22TY replaces your factory disconnector and interfaces with the slide cycle. As the slide travels rearward and returns to battery, it mechanically resets the trigger — so the next pull is ready the instant the slide closes. One round fired per trigger function. The mechanism is purely mechanical, fully semi-automatic.

Fail-Safe
Pistol remains semi-auto functional if reset fails
Test unsuppressed first. The 22TY can be picky with suppressors and certain ammo due to increased back pressure. Not all can and ammo combinations run the forced reset reliably. Always establish a clean baseline with unsuppressed fire and your preferred ammo before adding a suppressor.
Recommended Add-On
The Freedom Fingers TX22 Installation Block ($29.99) is a purpose-built install tool that holds components in the correct position during installation. Makes a clean first install far more likely — especially if this is your first time inside the TX22 trigger group.
Want the Complete Setup?
The TX22 Complete FRT Bundle ($149.99) includes this trigger, the installation block, and the GSG drum magazine conversion kit — everything your TX22 needs to run a forced reset trigger setup. Save $29.97 versus buying separately.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the TX22 FRT replace?
The 22TY replaces your factory disconnector only. No other modifications to the pistol are required. It is a true drop-in install.
Will this work with a suppressor on my TX22?
Test unsuppressed first. The 22TY can be picky with suppressors and certain ammo due to increased back pressure. Establish a reliable unsuppressed baseline before adding a can.
What TX22 models is this compatible with?
Compatible with all TX22 models and all generations: TX22, TX22C, TX22 Competition, TX22 T.O.R.O., 2TX22, and 2TX22C — Gen 1 and Gen 2.
What happens if the forced reset fails?
If the forced reset fails for any reason, the pistol remains fully functional in standard semi-auto mode. You are never left with a non-functional firearm.
Forced reset triggers require one trigger function per round fired and are semi-automatic devices. For current federal and state legality information, see our complete FRT legal guide.

I ordered this thinking I would beat the next stupid ban. So the trigger arrived very fast, just a few days, and I didn't pay for the extra shipping charge for getting it faster. Wasn't needed in my case. This was so easy to install a blind person could do it. Then I took it to the range and I expected it not to work like it was described. OMG did my face light up! Burned up two magazines in less than 10 seconds I think. And is still safe, and it retains the semi auto, or one shot per pull capability. I'm buying more for my other AR's now.

It wasn't exactly what I was expecting but I gave it a try. The installation video sucks because I couldn't see what he was doing but I ended up getting it. You have to learn how to run it as there's a little bit of a trick to it but once you do that it's fun to use.
First time using the Disruptor drop-in trigger I couldn't get it to work, even after swapping in an H2 buffer. This H3 heavy-duty spring combo finally did the trick. Rifle is an older S&W Sport II. Suppressor is SilencerCo Velos 556. Very happy with the result and looking forward to adding Disruptor FRT and this buffer/spring to at least two more rifles.
Had some initial issues with the trigger but customer service was easy to get ahold of and took care of me. Shipping was super fast, and everything is working as intended now. I wouldn’t think twice about ordering from them again.

Hey Joel,
This is GREAT to hear, and glad it was super easy
The FRT dropped right in and ran wonderfully! It cycled 22 rounds in roughly 2 seconds.
My son's first experience firing anything like this and he absolutely loved it.
I highly recommend this product for your TX22.
Safe, Semi, FRT. Until you experience it, you just don’t know what it’s like. But once you do know, you’ll want more. An addiction that is backed by the Constitution. 2A for LIFE.
Worked amazingly. Was everything I hoped it would be. Would definitely recommend these guys to anyone looking to purchase firearms accessories. Had a couple small order issues in the past and they were handled very quickly and expertly. As a result I try to give them as much of my business as possible.
Super easy to install, runs smooth and without failure in a completely stock $500 American tactical AR, there are plenty of videos showing how to install it. Would and am buying this trigger kit again, and pairing it with a lighter spring kit, there isn’t any weird quirks with it, I simply installed it with some oil and my factory pins and springs and it worked without polishing or any other modifications. Super happy with it!

Straight drop in, no modifications. Ran great no issues yet
Functioned fantastically. I absolutely recommend a heavier buffer. I have a Ruger AR lower and it fit perfectly. Really really enjoys the metal mags. Had loading issues, disappeared when I swapped to metal mags. Selector switch works slightly better than original. I used a extra spring I had laying around and got an H3 buffer. Make sure you have the full auto BCG or this product will not function.
I ended up needing something slightly lighter to run the G Lever FRS, but the H2.5 is probably a good option for a suppressed build with more back pressure
Had to do a minor tweak to tappet wire but other than that it was a drop in kit. Seems to be made of quality steel. We all are now having great fun with it.
My first ARC-Fire ran like a champ! I never had a hiccup or problem, and everyone on the range stared like I was a criminal...🤣 It was the V1, and man I was happy. Then all of a sudden...
I watched a video that showcased the ARC-Fire V2, with a 0-45°-90° ambi selector, and I had to have one. After all, it was going in my HK MR556 A4, and it has the markings on the lower for a 0°-45° selector, and I, of course, wanted it to match. So I bought one...
While visiting AS Designs website, I noticed they sold HK style selector levers for their ARC-Fire V2. So I bought some...
You CANNOT go wrong with this company! Their products are, in my and many others opinion, the best FRT on the market today! Just go to YouTube and pull up a 'Juicy Media' video, and he demonstrates a bunch of different brands of FRT and explains the pros/cons of the others, and explains why he prefers AS Designs!
5 MF'ing ☆'s~!!!
This enhanced semi-auto trigger is amazing the install was easy the function is great the only thing would be you need a t10 tool of your own to hold the other side. But overall 10/10 this mad my cheap Anderson ar turn heads!!!
The FRT dropped right in and ran wonderfully! It cycled 22 rounds in roughly 2 seconds.
My son's first experience firing anything like this and he absolutely loved it.
I highly recommend this product for your TX22.
Got my hands on the Taurus as soon as it came available and bought it for this specific reason lol. FRT was just the right size, seen many that had to be sanded in order to fit. Overall great product and works amazing.
I had a muzzle brake laying around and I put that on my TX22 just for looks. Do not do this. The FRT does not work with a brake installed. I removed the muzzle brake and this FRT ran perfect ! Great price and so much fun !
Even with garbage ammo this thing rocks. You can't stop yourself from grinning while you reload. Shipping was quick and install was pretty straightforward.
Super simple install. Youtube doesn't make it look easy enough! Works perfect immediately without a suppressor. If you want to run suppressed, use supersonic ammo or consider a weight system or red dot to add enough weight to the slide. Runs like a dream!
Easy install and runs flawlessly. Make sure to stock up on ammo, everyone around when you fire this thing will want to try it out. Very fun conversation.
Thanks for saying so quick. If you could let the price go down on the ARs. That would be nice. I can't wait to have them installed. Or maybe I'll do it myself and I will send you videos. Thank you and God bless
