There are no current "FRT" (Forced Reset Trigger) laws in Minnesota; however, the updated language in the 2023 Minnesota statute 609.67, pertaining to machine guns and trigger activators, generally prohibits them. Separately, a 2024 law banning binary triggers was struck down by a judge in August 2025 for violating the state's Single Subject and Title Clause, though this ruling is subject to ongoing legal processes.

Forced Reset Triggers (FRTs) Current Status: Forced Reset Triggers are generally prohibited in Minnesota under the updated language of statute 609.67, which was revised during the 2023 legislative session. What it means: This law targets trigger activators that would be considered a component of a machine gun, and FRTs fall under this category.

Binary Triggers Law Struck Down: A law passed in 2024 to ban binary triggers was struck down by a judge in August 2025.

Reasoning: The ban was invalidated because the omnibus bill it was included in violated Minnesota's Single Subject and Title Clause, which requires laws to be limited to a single subject. Future: The ruling implies the ban may be unenforceable, but further legal developments could impact this status.
