Two-part folding trigger for a folding firearm

A folding firearm comprising:

• a frame comprising a trigger and a fixed rear part extending downward from an axis parallel to a slide direction of a slide of the folding firearm;
• a foldable grip that rotatably separates from the fixed rear part along a breakaway interface when the folding firearm is folded, and is configured to fold around a first pivot axis that is forward of a front surface of the foldable grip when in a deployed state;
• a foldable trigger guard comprising a front leg, a bottom leg, and a folded and a deployed state, the front leg and the bottom leg being oblique to each other in the deployed state, the bottom leg rotatably coupling to the foldable grip via a second pivot axis, the front leg and the bottom leg rotatably coupling via a third pivot axis;
• and
• the trigger configured to fold forward and split into a rear part and a forward part when the foldable grip biases the trigger forward, the trigger rotating about the first pivot axis.
