Stand-Out Features
This isn’t some bargain-bin trigger. The Texas FRT brings consistent performance to SKS platforms that often suffer from gritty factory triggers. We’ve found the sear engagement remains crisp even after 500+ rounds in our durability testing, with no noticeable wear on the engagement surfaces.

The remaining 20% may require light filing – we include detailed instructions. Yes, provided the stock retains the original trigger group configuration.
