A trigger mechanism including a top sear for engaging a cocking piece, a transfer arm for engaging the top sear, and a safety lever and second stage sear which engages the transfer arm. The safety lever prevents unintentional firing of a firearm with the trigger mechanism. A bottom sear cooperates with the safety lever and the second stage sear. A reset spring biases the transfer arm. A single stage operation involves both a first stage spring and second stage spring upon trigger load application. In a two-stage operation, the first stage spring is engaged and then the second stage spring is also engaged. A selector pin provides flexibility to alter the mode of operation of the trigger mechanism between single stage trigger operation and a double stage trigger operation.

A firearm, such as a rifle, has a trigger group operable by the user in order to control the shooting action. The trigger group includes a trigger and an adjustment device for adjusting the intensity needed to operate the trigger. The adjustment device includes a rod (151) movable by the trigger extending between a trigger end and a free end. A command member engaged with the rod is positionable in a predefined operating axial position. The rod slidably engages with the command member. A thrust spring acts on the rod between the engagement end and the command member. Elastic action of the thrust spring on the trigger is a function of the axial operating position of the command member.

A training pistol and method of providing the same having fixedly and adjustably removable base extensions to emulate the feel of a corresponding live fire pistol, a trigger mechanism configured to be fit in a compact pistol to provide a large number and sophistication of sear surfaces and biasing members such as helical springs and lasers into a compact pistol to provide training for an end user such as concealed carry holder or law enforcement personnel.

A controlling device and methodology for firearms interfacing the trigger mechanism, trigger finger, and the innermost and/or upper-innermost region of the firing hand as a means to adaptively govern incremental trigger movement and variable trigger pull force in order to accurately discharge a singular round of ammunition and, in alternative method, adaptively regulate and govern a variable cyclic firing ratio and sequential discharge rate. In use, coinciding contraction of the firing hand and trigger finger bring the controller device in concert with the trigger and innermost region of the firing hand thereby effectively isolating the controller with uniformly balanced isometric tension. Trigger movement and trigger pull force being regulated incrementally by utilization of variable isometric tension applied to the controller between the trigger finger, trigger, and the innermost region of the firing hand.

A fault tolerant electromagnetic safety system for firearms comprises an electromagnetic actuator with movable rotating member operably interfaced with the firing mechanism. The actuator is controlled via a programmable microcontroller coupled to an electric power source onboard the firearm. A safety actuatable by a user operably interfaces with the actuator and is manually movable between actuated and standby positions. In a blocking position, the actuator engages and prevents the firing mechanism from moving to prevent discharging the firearm. The safety when in the standby position is configured to prevent the actuator from disengaging the firing mechanism. Upon the detecting movement of safety to the actuated position, the microcontroller moves the actuator to a non-blocking position allowing discharge of the firearm via a trigger pull. The safety when moving to the standby position may be configured to mechanically reset the actuator to the blocking position in event of an electronics failure.
