Tippmann Arms has launched the Elite FRT rifle and pistol series, featuring dedicated M4-22 models developed with Rare Breed. These firearms utilize the FRT-15L3™ trigger system, enhancing speed, reliability, and performance. Key upgrades include a new bolt system and optimized receivers, delivering exceptional follow-up shots in .22LR.
Tippmann Arms is excited to announce the launch of three new dedicated M4-22 FRT models developed in collaboration with Rare Breed.
These new models were purpose-built around the Rare Breed FRT-15L3™ trigger system and engineered specifically for the Tippmann Arms rimfire platform to deliver exceptional reliability, durability, and high-performance operation.
To optimize performance with the FRT system, Tippmann Arms redesigned key components of the platform, including the bolt assembly, upper and lower receivers, and buffer system. Rare Breed also modified the FRT-15L3™ specifically for seamless operation in the Tippmann Arms M4-22 platform.
The result is a dedicated .22LR system that offers fast follow-up shots, smooth operation, and the unmatched reliability customers expect from Tippmann Arms.
Introducing the Tippmann Arms M4-22 ELITE FRT Edition — the ultimate rimfire performance platform engineered specifically for the Rare Breed FRT-15L3™ Forced Reset Trigger System. Combining the unmatched reliability, durability, and premium fit-and-finish of the Tippmann Arms ELITE Series with the cutting-edge performance of the FRT-15L3™. These models deliver an entirely new level of speed, control, and shooting excitement in a .22LR platform.
Unlike other AR-style rimfire rifles and pistols, the Tippmann Arms M4-22 ELITE FRT Edition was purpose-built to optimize the performance and reliability of the Rare Breed FRT system. Our engineering team developed a patent-pending Anti-Bounce Bolt System with an integrated buffer, along with modified upper and lower receivers and optimized buffer tube components. These enhancements work together to ensure consistent cycling, reduced bolt bounce, and dependable operation with the modified FRT-15L3™ trigger system.
The result is a high-performance rimfire firearm that delivers exceptionally fast follow-up shots while maintaining the precision, controllability, and reliability Tippmann Arms is known for.
At the heart of the system is the Rare Breed FRT-15L3™ — a premium, duty-grade, single-stage 3-position trigger featuring Safe, Semi, and FRT® modes. The Forced Reset mechanism mechanically resets the trigger after each shot while requiring a separate trigger pull for every round fired, providing an incredibly responsive shooting experience with enhanced speed and consistency.
Whether you are training, competing, or simply enjoying a day at the range, the Tippmann Arms M4-22 ELITE FRT Edition delivers a shooting experience unlike any other rimfire firearm on the market.
