Patent ID: 8819978

Claim:
A reset mechanism for use in a semi-automatic firearm, comprising: a compression spring; a biasing member, the biasing member comprising a first end and a distal end wherein the compression spring is attached proximate to the first end of the biasing member; and a notch disposed on the biasing member configured for cooperation with a trigger bar, wherein the trigger bar comprises a longitudinal axis defined by a front portion and a rear portion, wherein the front portion is mechanically cooperated with a firearm trigger; wherein the compression spring communicates a force onto the biasing member, and wherein the biasing member is configured to impart the force onto the trigger bar in a direction substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the trigger bar, which force increases an impact resonance between the trigger bar and a sear housing as the trigger bar moves along the longitudinal axis toward the front portion after the firearm has been fired.
