Abstract
A trigger return spring assembly mountable on a frame of a firearm includes a trigger mounted on the frame pivoting about a first axis of rotation. A trigger bar attached to the trigger pivots relative to the trigger about a second axis of rotation fixed on the trigger. A bore extends through the trigger along a third axis oriented transversely to and positioned between the first and second axes of rotation. A plunger extends through the bore and is movable along the third axis. A first end of the plunger is attached to the trigger bar and a second end has a retaining surface oriented transversely to the third axis. A shoulder is positioned within the bore proximate to the trigger bar. A compression spring captured within the bore, between the shoulder and the retaining surface, exerts a force pushing the retaining surface away from the shoulder.
