Franklin Armory BFSIII AK9-C1 Binary Trigger for AK 9mm Rifles

The Franklin Armory BFSIII AK9-C1 binary trigger for AK 9mm rifles transforms your platform into a competition-ready or tactical-focused platform by adding a second round on trigger release. Unlike conventional semi-auto triggers, the BFSIII AK9-C1 operates in three distinct modes: safe, semi-automatic (one round per pull), and binary (one round on pull, one on release). This means you get two shots in rapid succession with a single trigger stroke—ideal for shooters who want tighter split times and faster follow-up capability on the range or in competition.

The binary trigger's release-round feature is smart: if you decide mid-squeeze that you don't want that second shot, simply flip the selector out of binary mode while holding the trigger back and the release round cancels. That prevents unwanted rounds downrange and gives you real control over your fire. The positive reset on the release phase keeps timing predictable so you can dial in your shooting without guessing how the trigger will behave.

Installation is straightforward, and the approximately 5.5 lb. trigger pull weight keeps the press smooth and manageable. Whether you're chasing tighter groups at a 3-gun match, running drills at your favorite range, or just exploring what your AK 9mm can do, the BFSIII AK9-C1 is purpose-built for shooters who want an extra edge without sacrificing control or safety.
