Abstract
A firearm operating system includes a housing, a central pivoting member disposed within the housing, a trigger including a portion disposed within the housing and a portion extending outside the housing such that the portion of the trigger within the housing includes a hole and at least one finger that extends in a first direction from the hole. Due to movement of the trigger, the at least one finger presses against the central pivoting member to cause the central pivoting member to rotate.

A firearm operating system comprising:
- a central pivoting member;
- and
- a trigger comprising a hole and at least two fingers that extend in a first direction from the hole, wherein:
- due to movement of the trigger in a counter-clockwise direction when viewed from a left side of the firearm operating system, the at least two fingers press against the central pivoting member to cause the central pivoting member to rotate;
- and

A firearm operating system comprising:
- a central pivoting member;
- and
- a trigger comprising a hole and at least one finger that extends in a first direction from the hole, wherein:
- due to movement of the trigger, the at least one finger presses against surface of the central pivoting member further from a firearm slide to cause the central pivoting member to rotate;
