A system allows remote triggering or firing of a weapon having a mechanical triggering or firing mechanism. The system can include at least one base, attachable to a weapon in a location adjacent a trigger of the weapon. At least one actuator is carried by the base, the actuator operable to engage the trigger of the weapon. At least one wireless controller is operable to actuate the actuator, the wireless controller being accessible by a system remote from the weapon.

The present invention comprises a trigger pin having a threaded portion and a non-threaded portion and an action having a trigger assembly slot and at least one channel having a portion thereof threaded. In the preferred embodiment, the trigger pin is inserted through a first channel in the action, into a channel within the trigger assembly, and into a second channel in the action opposing the first channel in the action. The threaded portion of the pin is threadably engaged with the threaded portion of the first channel in the action.

A modular bolt action rifle is provided, having an upper receiver configured to receive a bolt action bolt housing and bolt and a first universal fitting at a front of the upper receiver configured to receive one of a plurality of commonly sourced rifle barrels, and a lower receiver integral to or coupled to the upper receiver. The lower receiver is configured to receive commonly sourced fire control group components and a commonly sourced bolt action trigger mechanism. The lower receiver includes a second universal fitting at a rear of the lower receiver configured to receive one of a plurality of commonly sourced butt stocks.

A trigger mechanism that can be used in AR-pattern firearms has a hammer, a trigger member, a disconnector, a locking member, and a “three position” safety selector having safe, standard semi-automatic, and forced reset semi-automatic positions. In the standard semi-automatic position, rearward movement of the bolt carrier causes rearward pivoting of the hammer such that the disconnector hook catches the hammer hook, at which time a user must manually release the trigger member to free the hammer from the disconnector to permit the hammer and trigger member to pivot to the set positions so that the user can pull the trigger member to fire the firearm. In the forced reset semi-automatic position, rearward movement of the bolt carrier causes rearward pivoting of the hammer causing the trigger member to be forced to the set position, the safety selector preventing the disconnector hook from catching the hammer hook, and thereafter when the bolt carrier reaches the substantially in-battery position the user can pull the trigger member to fire the firearm without manually releasing the trigger member. The locking member is pivotable between a first position at which the locking member mechanically blocks the trigger member from moving to the released position and a second position at which the locking member does not mechanically block the trigger member allowing the trigger member to be moved to the released position. The locking member is spring biased toward the first position and moved against the spring bias to the second position by contact from the bolt carrier during forward movement of the bolt carrier as the bolt carrier reaches a substantially in-battery position.
