Abstract
A hand firearm has an axially movable firing pin which can be secured against axial displacement and a pivotable hammer which is retained in its cocked position by a safety lever. Upon actuation of the trigger a trigger arm first engages a release lever to disengage the firing pin from axial securement and subsequently engages the safety lever to release the safety lever from the hammer so that the hammer under the action of a spring moves from its cocked position to the firing position. The free end of the trigger arm is provided with longitudinally and laterally mutually offset abutments which sequentially engage the release lever and then the safety lever.
