  • Binary triggers are not federally regulated: one round on the pull, one on the release, still one round per function of the trigger.

The federal rule

A binary trigger fires once on the pull and once on the release. It is not regulated under federal law, but several states ban it under statutes aimed at rapid fire devices, multiburst triggers or trigger activators.
