Tactical Fire Control... all hype, or the next big thing in faux auto?

By Bob Owens | 5:03 PM | November 21, 2013

Tactical Fire Control has come seemingly from nowhere with the promise of being the replacement for various slide-fire stock systems, with the only apparent modification from a standard AR-15 being a new trigger and selector switch.

The company claims to have ATF approval.

I tried to contact Tactical Fire Control yesterday by both phone and email to find out more about how their trigger system works and how it got approval, but they haven’t responded yet.

If they do get in touch and explain how they’ve managed to pull off this holy grail of an ATF-approved approximation of full-auto fire in a stock-look rifle, I’ll let you know.
