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 pistol has a bolt with a surface that contacts the cartridge in the magazine to next be chambered. The bolt is mounted within the slide. As the bolt moves with the slide out of battery the surface exerts a force on the cartridge in the direction of motion of the slide. The force counteracts inertial forces on the cartridge imposed by recoil of the pistol.

The present disclosure presents a barrel assembly for a firearm. The barrel assembly includes a barrel having an internal bore and an external surface, and a recoil spring lug affixed to an outside surface of the barrel. The barrel assembly also includes a slide moveably mounted relative to the barrel, and a recoil spring biased on the recoil spring lug and the slide.

A pistol with a safety trigger, including a trigger lever supported in a housing and arranged in a trigger region, and of a safety lever pivotally mounted therein, wherein the safety lever engages a catch in the housing for ergonomics and reliability reasons, the safety lever is arranged in front of the trigger lever, extends over the clear height of the trigger region and is supported on the trigger lever in such a way that it forms a two-armed lever.

A double-barreled firearm having a slide having a slide body, a first barrel, a second barrel in parallel with first barrel, a firing chamber having a first firing chamber and having a second firing chamber and a mechanism for firing only one chamber thereof. The mechanism has a selector switch having a selector switch channel, two feed bar assemblies, two extractor assemblies and a retainer. The selector rod has a proximal end, a distal end and a feed bar notch. The distal end is in rotational communication with the firing chamber. The proximal end engages with the selector switch channel such that when the selector switch is pushed from side to side, the proximal end travels along the selector switch channel causing selector rod to rotate. The two feed bar assemblies are in communication with the feed bar notch of the selector rod. Each of the two feed bar assemblies have a feed bar face. The two extractor assemblies are in communication with the selector rod. Each of the extractor assemblies has an extractor claw and a claw pushrod. A linkage is in communication with each of the claw push rods. The retainer is in communication with the distal end of the selector rod and with the firing chamber.
