Abstract
A trigger housing mounting system for a firearm includes a receiver having a mounting slot and cutouts which receive mounting tabs on the trigger housing. The trigger housing is slidable forward and rearward in the receiver between locked and unlocked positions. A spring-biased locking block is movably mounted on the trigger housing. During the mounting process, the locking block is movable between a non-blocking position and a blocking position which prevents removal of the trigger housing from the receiver. A related mounting method is disclosed.
