Abstract
Provided is a trigger mechanism for a firearm having a receiver with a fire control mechanism pocket and a bolt carrier that reciprocates to pivotally displace a hammer when cycled. It includes a hammer having a sear notch and mounted in the fire control mechanism pocket to pivot on a transverse axis between set and released positions. A trigger member has a sear and is mounted in the fire control mechanism pocket to pivot on a transverse axis between set and released positions. The trigger member has a first surface positioned to be forcibly contacted by the hammer when the hammer is displaced by cycling of the bolt carrier, the contact causing at least in part the trigger member to be forced to the set position. A locking bar is slideably mounted in a support frame and spring biased toward a first position in which the locking bar mechanically blocks the trigger member from moving to the released position, and is movable against the spring bias to a second position when contacted by the bolt carrier reaching a substantially in-battery position, allowing the trigger member to be moved by an external force to the released position.
