This video walks through a full install of the Triggered Company Disruptor forced reset trigger in an AR-15 lower. The Disruptor we sell ships with the ambidextrous selector, and these steps carry over to the LAT trigger once it ships.
Safety first: clear your workspace of all ammunition before you start. Run the manufacturer’s unloaded function check before any live fire. If anything feels unclear at any point, stop and call a qualified gunsmith or Triggered Company support.

Parts Used in This Video
A clean, properly maintained rifle makes for a smoother install. Here’s what’s shown:
- Triggered Company Disruptor: the drop-in forced reset trigger being installed
- H3 Buffer: a heavier three-weight design (approx. 5.4 oz) that steadies bolt carrier speed and reduces bounce
- M16-profile BCG: the carrier we pair with the Disruptor.
Building it once? The Disruptor kit is the Ambi Disruptor plus an M16-profile BCG and the H2/H3 Hybrid Buffer for $460. Get the Disruptor kit or read our forced reset trigger buyer’s guide.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this install work for the Ambidextrous Disruptor too?
Yes. Every Disruptor we sell now has the ambidextrous selector, and it installs exactly as shown in the video.
Does this video apply to the LAT trigger?
Yes. LAT uses the same drop-in install process as the Disruptor. We’ll update this page with LAT-specific notes once it ships.
What if my rifle doesn’t pass the unloaded function check?
Do not fire it. Re-check the installation and selector alignment first. If the issue continues, contact support. Our Install + Troubleshooting Guide covers the most common symptoms and fixes in detail.
Is the Disruptor legal in my state?
Laws vary by state and change over time. Check our Disruptor Legal Guide before you buy or install.
