Claims12
A trigger assembly for use in a weapon, the trigger assembly comprising:
- a disconnector having (1) a catch edge that is configured to be urged by a force of a spring to a position that restrains a hammer of the weapon from rotation until a trigger is pulled and (2) a projection that interconnects the disconnector to a shoe of the trigger, the projection comprising (i) a neck and (ii) a head;
- the shoe having a slot for receiving the projection, wherein the head fits into the slot and the slot includes a gap that enables movement of the neck such that the trigger, when pulled, is configured to cause the catch edge to pull away from the hammer against the force of the spring thereby releasing the hammer to fire the weapon.
