A surface treatment for a metal substrate includes a nitride layer and a diamond-like carbon coating on said nitride layer. The metal substrate can be a titanium-containing substrate. The nitride layer and diamond-like carbon coating serve to improve the tribological properties of the metal substrate.

A trigger unit for a firearm, including a hammer rotatable about a hammer axis and prestressable by a hammer spring, a trigger lever rotatable about a trigger axis, the trigger lever has a trigger and a trigger rear, which receives at least one interrupter. A sear is rotatably mounted about a sear axis and prestressable by a sear spring. The sear axis and the trigger axis coincide, and the sear has a bearing recess for receiving and limited rotation about a disconnector axis of a disconnector pivot formed on the underside of the disconnector, the bearing recess being formed surrounding the disconnector pivot at least partially in the direction of rotation about the disconnector axis.

A rifle having a receiver alignment system includes an upper receiver and a lower receiver configured to engage with each other in an assembled configuration by aligning and pressing an exterior portion of the upper receiver into an interior portion of the lower receiver. A cavity is defined within the interior portion of the lower receiver configured to receive the upper receiver. A lug positioned on the upper receiver defines an alignment groove formed on a lower surface of the lug. A plunger pin is provided in a hole defined within the interior portion of the lower receiver. The plunger pin is configured to engage with the alignment groove and generate a spring-loaded tension when the upper receiver and the lower receiver are engaged in an assembled configuration.

A trigger unit for a firearm, including a trigger bar that lies below the trigger axis. A trigger lever has a rear which accommodates at least one disconnector. A sear, rotatable about a sear axis can be biased by means of a sear spring. The hammer axis, the trigger axis and the sear axis are arranged parallel to one another and parallel to a transverse direction. The trigger lever has a recess and the sear is at least partially arranged within. The sear axis and the trigger axis coincide. The sear limits rotation of a disconnector joint formed on the underside of the disconnector; the bearing encloses the disconnector joint at least partially.

A handgun, including a safety lever for disengaging a sear, the safety lever located under a slide of the handgun and extending along a longitudinal axis within a body of the handgun, wherein the safety lever includes a) a sear switch located external to the body of the handgun, and is configured to be positioned by a user in one of at least two positions along the longitudinal axis of the handgun and configured to move the safety lever with the sear switch to an elected position; (b) a sear tab at a rear end of the safety lever near a sear of the handgun, wherein when the sear switch is in a first position the sear tab does not interfere with the action of the sear and when in a second position the sear tab causes the sear to tilt so that the sear is disengaged and cannot come in contact with a striker of the handgun to fire a bullet.

A safety selector comprises a first hub portion, a second hub portion, and a cam portion connecting the first hub portion with the second hub portion. The first hub portion is generally cylindrical in shape, having opposing faces and an longitudinal surface extending therebetween. Further, the first hub portion is segmented in it opposing faces, creating a first plane in the longitudinal surface. The first hub portion further comprises a pair of spaced apart detent sockets in the longitudinal surface face, a connecting groove extending between the detent sockets, and a detent notch in an outer one of the circular faces exposing one of the detent sockets. The cam portion comprises a recessed face and a cam face. The first plane is substantially parallel with the recessed face.

An armorer's wrench can include an elongate wrench body having an implement end structured and configured to define a plurality of wrench interfaces, and a handle end opposite the implement end being structured and configured to define a handle shape with a molded grip. The plurality of wrench interfaces can include at least one of a barrel nut wrench and a castle nut wrench, and the handle end can be devoid of wrench interfaces. The armorer's wrench can further include a plurality of hammer heads, hammer head storage, and a hammer head receiver. The handle end may be structured and configured to provide the hammer head storage, and the implement end may be structured and configured to provide the hammer head receiver. Each of the plurality of hammer heads may be structured and configured to securely and releasably attach to the hammer head receiver and to the handle end.
