Abstract:
1. A trigger mechanism, comprising: a trigger disconnector assembly having a trigger nose, and a disconnector having a disconnector hook; a reset lever mounted for pivotal movement between open and closed positions; the trigger disconnector assembly mounted for pivotal movement between charged and discharged orientations, the charged orientation comprises a set position of the trigger nose and a disengaged position of the disconnector hook, and the discharged orientation comprises a released position of the trigger nose and an engaged position of the disconnector hook; a hammer includes a striking end, a hammer disconnect notch, a pivot end pivotable about a hammer pivot between a firing position of the striking end, a cocked position of the striking end, and a past-cocked position of the striking end, and a trigger notch formed in the pivot end for receiving the trigger nose in the cocked position of the hammer; and the trigger disconnector assembly is in mechanical communication with the reset lever, the striking end of the hammer strikes the reset lever in the past-cocked position of the hammer pivoting the reset lever from the open position to the closed position, the reset lever acting on the trigger disconnector assembly to pivot the trigger disconnector assembly from the discharged orientation to the charged orientation when the reset lever moves from the open position to the closed position, to position the trigger nose in the set position in preparation to be received by the trigger notch in the cocked position of the hammer and to position the disconnector in the disengaged position of the disconnector hook relative to the hammer disconnect notch.
