To Pre-empt the comments - Yes you can print this yourself or use send cut send, if you want the files i will have links on the product pages for you. This is just a convenience and a service with a free sticker.
Questions I've got?
How are these with others ? My first batch going out today are the same material, i have opted to change the material to a softer more fitting metal. The first orders will get a note stating this and will receive the newer version next week free of charge.
What's in the packet ? The metal FRT, 5 x PA6CF FRT's, Sticker, A legal note to remind you not to be a dick and to enjoy your 2nd amendment rights.
Why is it taking long ? I work a day job and didnt expect this to be so popular i wanted to offer a cheaper alternative to FRT's, Firearms and so on.
My State says its illegal ? Your state can keep sucking that big blue dick, Your rights shall not be infringed. You can own what you want. Its not a controlled item and its your choice as an ADULT to use or not use.

Got 6 plastic ones with the metal V2 lol. Gonna test this weekend
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Good you checked the bag, im getting alot of people calling and emailing before they check the bag lol
Bahnoop@reddit
Just doing function testing without any rounds, this already feels much better than the 3d printed one I used previously (a different design that ended up needing a lot of modification to work). The V2 metal one dropped in and function tested perfectly
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
^^* UPDATE ****
All you fuckers rock, thanks for the orders. I can say that if you ordered by Sept 9th your order shipped.
If you received the V1 with the Silver FRT(throw it away) your Upgrade to the V2 has shipped today.
If you order by 5pm it will ship the next day.
Ive still waiting on the new striker plates should see them next week and will test.
Any comments concerns please email me.
Bahnoop@reddit
Isn't 4130 harder than 316 stainless, hence causing more wear?
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Weirdly yes but causes less wear to the slide.
Bahnoop@reddit
Alright, thanks! Will probably preorder the metal striker plate tonight or tomorrow
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Cool i should have them in and testing soon
sportbiketed@reddit
Now this is customer service! I received my frt last night and was pleasantly surprised with the (contents)[https://imgur.com/a/z0yI5Zg]
u/contactfront8650 fix your website so I can buy that metal sticker plate
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Thanks, i will add shortly
Informal-Space-5584@reddit
Thanks for the update!
reppzilla@reddit
This guy is a confirmed scammer (proof provided in the imgur link). I ordered one of these 40 dollar 316-stainless TX22 FRT's (cost is about .30 cents from send-cut-send if you want to order a hundred of them) and in the time it took the order to arrive he has removed the item from the website and replaced it with printed TX22's FRT's. I assumed this was some sort of drop-shipping scam but its just a straight up scam. His website is now advertising ten of these printed FRT's for 20 dollars, but he has charged me $40 for 5 of them, after specifically advertising this as a stainless steel part (yes I know the metal TX22 FRT's damage the slide liner, I can print more of them). The bag is stapled to a card that specifically says they are made out of 316 stainless steel lol.
Proof here: https://imgur.com/a/DuZYSx0
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Did you check all of them ….. the upgraded 4140 v2 steel BLACK frt is in the bag with 5 3d printed spares
reppzilla@reddit
Good call m8, shouldn't have doubted you :)
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Its been a very common response i should of sent an email out
Human_Jump_4319@reddit
Do make metal striker inserts to replace the OEM plastic ones for use with my Freedom Finger Triggers FRT so they don’t wear out like the plastic ones in time? If so, email me at markdlugokinskidds@yahoo.com
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Thats the theory, just waiting on a few varients to receive and test.
CrankyOperator@reddit
Anyone w/experience w/the AR selector, worth it vs your normal SS's out there? Is the only "advantage" that it doesn't require trigger mods and is more "normal" vs the push button?
Entire_Routine_3621@reddit
Looks copy pasted from atrius so we will see.
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Very close to atrius design, just machined not mimmed so it wont snap
Entire_Routine_3621@reddit
Atrius confirmed it’s machined.
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Oh from the pictures of the snapped lever it looks like mim. Good on them getting it machined .
CrankyOperator@reddit
I'm dumb, didn't catch it was made by a dif company. Thanks.
clicktoseemyfetishes@reddit
My main gripe with the original design is I just don’t like push button safeties especially from a clarity standpoint. That said $200 seems a little steep for both this and the Atrius (assuming they’re not the same). And with the AS Designs version coming out that’s supposed to avoid the durability issues of the Atrius, should be interesting. I’ll probably continue to wait until these design mature a bit. Same hope with the tx22 FRT, I’ll be all in if they can make it selectable
codycr6@reddit
Received mine... a baggie with 10 pieces of poorly printed plastic? Nothing metal in there it all.... just .50 cents worth of plastic?
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Did you check all of them ? I put the V2 4140 steel in most of the packages that didn’t ship in the first batch.
SpottableCarp37@reddit
Regarding "TX-22 Replacement Striker Plate Metal for Surpressor slow down" is this what i can buy to replace the plastic piece that holds the striker/slide internals?? Cus after 500 rounds mine is starting to show signs of carving into that plastic..FFT triggers disconnect
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Yes its one option. I am waiting for the proof samples to arrive
Embarrassed_Top_4469@reddit
Question regarding the AR-15 FRT. Would it have any issues with a CMMG drop in .22lr kit?
As much fun as burning $15 in a couple seconds sounds, I would like the option of switching to cheaper rounds 😅
Snoo_18581@reddit
In for a metal frt! Thanks!
IronReaper7x@reddit
Is your FRT thicker like the freedom finger? Or is it 1.6mm? Im an ffl and trying to source some for customers…both of the sendcutsend freefile ones that people have been selling on FB are unsatisfactory. Ive had to weld on them, grind, and file them and some pistols still refuse to function. I have one FFT and it works flawlessly in every pistol, theyre just backordered like crazy. PS i tried ordering from your site like a week ago and it wouldnt let me (on an iphone.) Thats why i ended up buying off FB 🤦🏼♂️lol. Thank you!
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Also send me a message i do wholesale and ship next day . Plenty in stock
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Website it back up,
Its thicker and runs flawless so far no complaints.
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Website back up .. sorry folks
StubbyCalvin@reddit
So,this guy just disappeared ?
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Im right here, website problems all day
Bahnoop@reddit
I noticed for the metal striker plate, there's no selection for which generation tx22 you want it for. Will it work with both generations?
mikeb787@reddit
The website has been updated. There is an option for gen 1 and gen 2 now.
drewbsterz@reddit
Ok, I see this asked a lot, but I'm still confused.
On the TX22, the OEM striker plate is plastic and the OEM disconnector is metal.
The FRT In this case is just a modified disconnector, which is also made of metal. How does the FRT (which is just a modified disconnector) wear the OEM striker plate?
Unless you're saying that the OEM disconnector will ALSO eventually damage the striker plate, but without the rate of fire that the FRT allows, this will be a much slower process.
Will this damage to the striker plate cause any issues with function of the firearm?
OmgTom@reddit
based only on the PSR video. The real advantage is you need more weight on the slide to make it cycle with a suppressor
Shooter_Q@reddit
More weight than an RDS?
Faolan571@reddit
No if/when the plate wears enough where the frt contacts it'll just function as it did factory. Only thing that'll stop working is forced reset
fafafanta@reddit
Ffs, I just bought the freedom finger one a week ago for $125 like an idiot. Oh well, live and learn.
AnonymousMembr@reddit
FFT claims zero customer complaints for wear with his design.
fafafanta@reddit
Oh! Well that’s good then. Guess it was worth the extra money if it’s not killing the gun.
Temporary_Traffic622@reddit
They should’ve disclosed the potential for wear on the slide assembly…
glunchglenchgrunch@reddit
You should’ve realized that a .22lr pistol with an aluminum slide/plastic internals, designed for regular Semi auto use, wouldn’t hold up to 1750-1900 rounds per minute lmao.
Able-Nectarine7894@reddit
They actually hold up just fine. The only thing that happens when the frt contact area wears out is you lose frt. still shoots like it did factory though and if you print a new striker housing frt is back in business
Temporary_Traffic622@reddit
Typically if a company charges 125 for a product you expect it to be polished and work without damaging your gun, “lmao”.
glunchglenchgrunch@reddit
These aren’t OEM parts dude, they literally state in the description of the TX22 FRT on freedom trigger “User assumes all liability for damage, wear, or malfunction.” Idk, seems kinda logical to assume that CLEARLY MISUSING a tool will lead to faster wear and tear, but clearly not in your case. Taurus CLEARLY didn’t intend this $300 pistol to be used for this type of heavy use, repeatedly LMAO.
Temporary_Traffic622@reddit
no shit, warning in description is all you had to say retard
glunchglenchgrunch@reddit
Lol, okay dumbass. Call me a retard after I prove you can’t read, nor understand basic logic. Go fuck yourself you self righteous fool.
mikeb787@reddit
How much weight will be added for the suppressor slow down model?
AnonymousMembr@reddit
Claims of no weight and up to .75 oz of weight added to get it to run with a can. Depends on your combination of ammo, suppressor and the alignment of planets to get the gun to cycle right
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
FIRST OFF ITS 7.50 NOT 750 LOL
Squeeze_Toy2004@reddit
The ambi AR selectors, will they work with a LaRue MBT?
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
I have a G$ 2 stage coming today to test,
How popular is that trigger ???
joman8390@reddit
Did you get the G$ tested yet?
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Still waiting on USPSsssssssssssss
joman8390@reddit
Darn. Keep us posted!
cyclorphan@reddit
Definitely very well regarded. It's not as pricey as G$ and many people actually prefer the MBT. I haven't tried a G$ trigger yet and am slowly building a toy to drop my MBT2S into.
CaffeinatedKarabiner@reddit
They're really only as cheap as they are because Mark Larue hates Bill Geissele and is doing it out of spite. They used to be priced similarly.
cyclorphan@reddit
lulz, pettiness working in my favor. Approved.
TheAddiction2@reddit
Probably the second most popular AR non milspec trigger after MBTs, I would be real interested
Iil-tab@reddit
I know I’d be extremely interested
samurailemur@reddit
Same. From the website, if anyone knows if this applies to the MBT:
Designed for mil-spec triggers without a relief cut(squared rear bottom half of the trigger, no U-notch).
Squeeze_Toy2004@reddit
The MBT? Stupid popular.
Astromander@reddit
Pretty popular
wadech@reddit
Would you hand deliver for $750?
Raztan@reddit
for 750 I expect a happy ending and maybe some light house work.
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Hell yea lol
Siege9929@reddit
It’s a got dam eBay scam lol
cyclorphan@reddit
I had assumed that was a joke, lulz
Squeeze_Toy2004@reddit
I was gonna say... 😅
Faolan571@reddit
Awesome post, just curious though since the metal frt is steel wouldn't it be better to have a steel striker housing over aluminum or are the forces in play here insignificant enough that lubrication will prevent wear between steel and aluminum?
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Ideally i want to be in the 4130/4140 steel but worried about weight. I have a few options im playing with im even thinking just getting the one side made of metal
Faolan571@reddit
Oh very interesting that is a great idea having even just the frt side metal! I will be following for sure, a metal selectable housing would be insane
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
I have an idea for the selector but it will need the end user to drill the pistol slide.
Faolan571@reddit
If that's the only way to do it I'd still be in for it. It's just absolutely worth it and these pistols are so cheap I honestly wouldn't even mind.
Ass_Stuffer@reddit
Does anyone know if these are Florida legal?
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
According to florida law you change the buffer weight its illegal
ftsapr@reddit
Dang, I just sold my tx-22
Jimothius@reddit
Well that was stupid even before the FRT was available, lol
ftsapr@reddit
eh, it wouldn't cycle subsonic while suppressed, and I like the 22/45 I got recently more.
Jimothius@reddit
Huh. Had you broken it in? Or tried more than one subsonic ammo? I ran a couple hundred rounds of spicy stuff through mine first and then it ran CCI Quiet Semi-auto like a dream.
ftsapr@reddit
yep, I shot the shit out of it before I got my Jessie's girl.
I tried remington, Aguila, and CCI subs, they wouldn't cycle with the can on at all. I'm not too put out by it, I sold it like a month ago for $250
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Most are out of stock now too unless you want cyan
ProfessionalH20@reddit
So I'm pretty sure I lost the striker block spring. Does your kit have the replacement?
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Let me see if i can source it for you.
stumpy1218@reddit
Is the ar safety 3 position or is it safe FRT and that’s it
I scrolled through comments so hopefully you didn’t answer this already and I missed it
SuggestionComplete25@reddit
Do I need it for my TX22?
acdrewz555555@reddit
So explain this to me like I’m 5. In order to run it suppressed, you’d need the FRT and striker plate plus a bit of machining correct? Any reference materials you’re aware of?
YaBoiRook@reddit
There's a guy on tacswap selling pistol frts for 20 bones plus shipping. You're welcome gentlemen.
TheMoves@reddit
I see a few for $20 or so on there, any particular one you’ve bought from with good quality?
YaBoiRook@reddit
I haven't bought any, just saw em the other day when I was doing my daily scroll haha
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Yes sir he is a cool guy go to him
Blood_Meridian13@reddit
Does the FRS work with Geissele single stage triggers?
Ramon5556@reddit
Out of curiosity do I need the metal plate? For the tx22?
Ramon5556@reddit
Just bought mine
AskMeWhyIFish@reddit
Does the AR selector work with uncut triggers then?
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Yes no mod needed, but thats with my current tested triggers. Single stage drop ins at moment
AskMeWhyIFish@reddit
You got a list of what you've tested?
joman8390@reddit
You test any geisseles or larue?
Squeeze_Toy2004@reddit
I already asked, he's got a G$ coming and I'm gonna loan him a MBT when he asks for it.
MrJuryAZ@reddit
So do I need the other parts for the tx22 if I order just the FRT?
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
So with all the metal FRT’s they drag and grind the slide. So some amazing dude made the file and its on the sea. This is to replace the plastic striker plate.
plzpmmefemalenudes@reddit
For clarity Are you saying that the FRT disconnector file is on the sea? Or both the disconnector and the striker housing?
Hunter0josh@reddit
Does anyone have video or photos of this? While it makes sense, I have not seen this. I have just seen comments about it.
MrJuryAZ@reddit
I see. How many rounds you think it’ll take before I need a replacement?
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Still runs after just looks like shit
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
All down to you and how well you fit the FRT to the slide. Ive seen 100 and ive seen 1000
tyroleee@reddit
What’s the host name on the sea?
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Search “sounding rod”
Commercial-Fish-1258@reddit
“Shipping kills the deal”
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Fat fingered this before my coffee … $7.50
Commercial-Fish-1258@reddit
All good. So does the forced reset selector allow you to switch between FRT mode and standard semi auto?
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Yea ive figured to jump into getting all the FRTs made cheaper and better quality.
On my To-Do list is a selectable FRT for the TX22 , i think we could with replacing the plastic striker plate to metal but the end user may need to drill into the slide.
Commercial-Fish-1258@reddit
If you can do that, I will probably get the FRT. I don’t want to have that as the only available mode.
Dr_Jabroski@reddit
The solution is to have tx22s, one that goes brrr and one that doesn't.
grimduck17@reddit
Tis is what I did
Commercial-Fish-1258@reddit
So I’ve been told.
milquetoastmustache@reddit
You're supposed to drink the coffee and fat finger.... well... me
Raztan@reddit
So to put it another way, shipping is cost is 3 tx22's
rodjosh99@reddit
Any chance of printing the m&p FRT soon? 👀
Choice_Noise1078@reddit
What ammo do you recommend for unsuppressed?
unewish@reddit
Your website offers a free shipping code from spinning the wheel and a 10% off code was sent to my email, but both do not work. It says there is a minimum spend error. You should probably update what the minimum purchase is as the email and codes on your site do not show this information.
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Shit it should say, its $100 min spend for shipping and then the 10% only restriction is cannot be used for sales
cyclorphan@reddit
nice. I'm curious about the striker plates, probably leave it stock for now but I really want to get a suppressor for it so I could definitely see adding that, depending on the difference made.
ahintofpen15@reddit
Waiting for the print links, but good on ya for also including the files as well!
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Just got off the range back to the day job, will get those links posted later. Everything is on the sea thoigh aswell
snackshack@reddit
See folks, this is somebody who actually cares about the community. Most people wouldn't tell you where to find the stuff for free, let alone post the links on their product page.
These are the types of dealers I like to support.
Subversion7@reddit
When going to checkout, I’m being presented with required FFL selection for delivery method, and even when one is selected it adds a 7.50 charge for each item in the cart, with two of them called handgun shipping fee?
2 PLA striker plate replacements and 2 FRTs for Taurus
Am I missing something?
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Ok thats fixed it was saying handgun ive changed so no ffl needed
Subversion7@reddit
All worked out and good to go.
Super fast customer service!
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
The website has been shitty and double charging shipping i refund that after batch. The FfL shouldnt be needed ler me see if i fucked up the settings
Subversion7@reddit
I’ll wait for your reply and send it once you give the go ahead.
Or as long as I send in the order now, it won’t get shipped to an FFL. Then in good to go
Maximum-Ad2278@reddit
Mine are $35 with $5 shipping
p80bob@reddit
Can’t find the AR FRS?
NotAnAltAcc_@reddit
just curious, if the striker plate is something that seems to need replacement eventually, maybe instead of 5 nylon frts with the metal one, maybe just 1 nylon frt and include a pla striker plate (to replace the inevitable wear)?
radar1225S@reddit
I never got an email order confirmation or shipping from that last post.
contactfront8650@reddit (OP)
Declines still pend, send me a pm and i can check
MissionBicycle4622@reddit
What's your average ship time? Ordered this a few days ago, and a tx22 right after. I've already got the tx22, but my friend hasn't shipped yet.
Draconieray@reddit
The metal insert is a great idea I reckon, spicy price tho. Are you making the nylon inserts in house?
clientnotfound@reddit
Gonna have to go through a lot of .50 cent prints to justify the metal one.
Draconieray@reddit
For sure at that price, but if they came way down and actually reduced the rpm a touch then I'd jump on one. Curious how long PLA+ will last
