Abstract
A firearm with a compound lever trigger mechanism includes a first member pivotally attached to a firearm receiver at a first pivot and a first lever arm extending away from the first pivot attachment point to a sear. The first member is pivotable between a first position where the sear engages a firing element and a second position where the sear does not engage the firing element. A trigger member is pivotally attached to the first member first lever arm with a trigger blade arm extending away from the second pivot in one direction and a bearing arm extending away in another direction toward bearing contact with a surface of the receiver. Pulling the trigger blade arm causes the trigger member to pivot relative to the first member and the bearing arm to move in bearing contact against the receiver, thereby pivoting the lever arm from the first position to the second position.
