Trigger assembly for bolt action pistols

In a firearm, in combination, a trigger mechanism, a trigger positioned forwardly of the trigger mechanism, the trigger mechanism including a sear, sear actuating means including a connector member, the connector member having a pivotal mounting at an intermediate position of the connector member, the trigger being positioned to act on the connector member and to move it angularly, and means whereby a part of the connector member actuates the sear for firing, a pivotally-mounted sear release member positioned to engage the sear and having a part engageable by the connector member, whereby the connector member can actuate the sear release member for releasing the sear, a bolt release plunger positioned in the action for axial movement in a bolt releasing direction, said plunger having engagement with the sear release member, whereby it can be actuated by trigger pull.

In a firearm, in combination, a trigger mechanism, a trigger positioned to operate the trigger mechanism, the trigger mechanism including a sear, a pivotally mounted sear release member positioned to engage the sear and operative to release the sear, a sear spring positioned between the sear and the sear release member whereby both the sear and the sear release member are urged in non-firing direction.

In a firearm, in combination, a trigger mechanism, a trigger positioned to operate the trigger mechanism, the trigger mechanism including a sear, a pivotally mounted sear release member positioned to engage the sear and operative to release the sear, a major part of the mass of the sear release member being on one side of its pivot, the sear release member having a position whereby transverse inertia forces having a component acting on it to rotate it will move it in a direction to hold rather than release the sear.
