RISE Triggers recently announced the Rev 535 Slide-and-Snap™ AR Trigger, a next-generation AR trigger designed to remove the friction—both mechanical and mental—of upgrading a trigger. The Rev 535 brings the ease and modularity shooters expect from ARs to the trigger itself. With a radically simplified installation system and proven single-stage performance, the Rev 535 makes it faster and easier than ever to improve accuracy and shoot with confidence.
The Rev 535 introduces Slide-and-Snap™, a new category of AR trigger upgrades that eliminates the complexity, loose hardware, and time-consuming steps of upgrading. Instead of traditional multi-part installs, the Rev 535 slides into place and locks in with built-in pins, delivering a secure, anti-walk, anti-rotation installation without tools, screws, or threadlocker.
“The Rev 535 is about removing barriers,” said Matt Torres, President of RISE. “You spend less time installing and more time shooting. It installs faster, adapts to the shooter, and delivers the clean, consistent performance people expect from RISE Triggers.”
On compatible mil-spec lower receivers, the Rev 535 installs in under 60 seconds and often without removing the grip or safety selector.
Beyond installation, the Rev 535 introduces tool-free trigger blade customization. Each trigger includes interchangeable flat and curved blade faces, allowing shooters to change the feel of their trigger in seconds. Blade faces attach using TorLok™ technology, which combines mechanical engagement with magnetic retention for a secure connection, with no tools required.
Performance remains central to the Rev 535’s design. Built on the proven RA-535 Advanced-Performance Trigger platform, this second-generation system delivers a crisp, no-take-up single-stage pull with a lightning-fast, tactile reset. Upgraded materials and the new Slide-and-Snap installation system work together to improve consistency, accuracy, and follow-up speed—whether shooting at the range, in competition, or in the field.
