Overview

The AS Designs Arc Fire represents the cutting edge of forced reset selector technology with its patent-pending Active Reset Clutch (ARC) system. Unlike traditional forced reset triggers that can accelerate component wear, the Arc Fire's mechanically leveraged design forces immediate trigger reset after each shot while reducing drag on the system for smoother operation during rapid fire. The Arc Fire delivers precise, controlled rapid-fire capability—one round per trigger action, every time—across an unprecedented range of platforms.

Engineered for multi-platform versatility, the Arc Fire supports over 10 firearm systems including AR15, JAKL, MP5, MCX, MPX, SCAR, BRN-180, G3, AP53, UMP, STRIBOG, and DISSENT, with additional platforms in development. The fully ambidextrous design provides fast selector access for both right- and left-handed shooters, with three throw configuration options (45/90, 45/180, 90/180 degrees) to match your shooting style and platform requirements.

The Arc Fire's internal geometry reduces system drag compared to first-generation forced reset selectors, resulting in a noticeably smoother feel during extended strings. The tactile, consistent reset makes it easier to maintain control even at maximum cyclic rates. Compatible with most Mil-Spec triggers including Geissele SSA/SSA-E/SSA-X/SD3G series, ALG, BCM PNT, PSA EPT, Aero Precision, and CMMG, the Arc Fire integrates seamlessly with your existing fire control group. The three-position selector offers Safe, Semi, and ARC modes for mission-adaptable fire control.
