Abstract
Disclosed is a linear trigger mechanism for a firearm. In certain examples, the trigger mechanism includes a trigger housing defining a linear pathway and configured to house a trigger, a sear, and a disconnector. The trigger has a top surface, and a sear ramp and a disconnector ramp disposed on the top surface. The trigger is configured to move along the linear pathway that is substantially parallel with a bore axis of the firearm. The trigger mechanism also includes a trigger return compression spring configured to urge the trigger into a default position, and a sear compression spring configured to urge the sear into a default position.

A trigger mechanism for a firearm, comprising:
- a monolithic trigger including a sear ramp and a disconnector ramp on a top surface thereof;
- a trigger housing defining a linear pathway and configured to house the trigger, a sear, and a disconnector;
- where the trigger is configured to move along the linear pathway, which is substantially parallel with a bore axis of the firearm;
- a trigger return compression spring configured to urge the trigger into a default position;
- and
- a sear compression spring configured to urge the sear into a default position.
A firearm having a linearly moveable trigger with respect to the firearm, the firearm comprising:
- a trigger housing defining a linear pathway and configured to house the trigger, a sear, and a disconnector;
- the trigger being monolithic and including a sear ramp and a disconnector ramp on a top surface thereof, and where the trigger is configured to move along the linear pathway, which is substantially parallel with a bore axis of the firearm;
- a trigger return compression spring configured to urge the trigger into a default position;
- and
- a sear compression spring configured to urge the sear into a default position.
