Abstract
A device is disclosed that is used temporarily to replace a trigger assembly of a weapon. In one embodiment, the device is self-resetting, including a biasing mechanism to reset a trigger lever to a firing position. As such, the feel of depressing a cocked trigger with each simulated trigger pull is simulated. This device allows the user to experience a more realistic dry fire training session, allowing the user to still cycle the gun action normally if they choose.
Claims12
A trigger simulation device, comprising:
- a support block defining a retention portion;
- a trigger lever positioned within the support block for rotation about an axis with respect to the support block from a firing position to an extended position;
- and
- a retention assembly coupled with the support block and trigger lever, the retention assembly engaging the retention portion when the trigger lever is in the firing position, wherein, upon a rotational force placed on the trigger lever in excess of a predetermined threshold, the retention assembly member is released from the retention portion such that, when released from the firing position, rotational force less than the predetermined threshold allows rotation of the trigger lever relative to the block.
