FRD Legality by State
Products in this guide (4) ▾

Under current federal law and DOJ/ATF policy (updated May 2025), forced reset devices that fire one round per separate, distinct pull and reset of the trigger are not classified as machine guns. All Copperhead Safety FRD products are designed and intended solely for lawful semi-automatic operation, one discharge per individual trigger pull. This is not legal advice. For questions about a specific jurisdiction, consult qualified counsel.
