A firearm with dual-acting safety mechanism in one embodiment includes a slide movably carried by a frame, hammer, sear operable to hold the hammer in and release it from a cocked position, and firing mechanism including a trigger and trigger bar which collectively operate to actuate the sear to release the hammer. The safety mechanism includes right and left actuator levers coupled together and cooperating with a safety rocker. The safety rocker is operably interfaced with the trigger bar and pivotably movable between two positions. Moving either actuation lever to activate the safety mechanism rotates the safety rocker which simultaneously both blocks the trigger bar from movement and displaces the trigger bar to disengage the sear which can no longer be actuated via a trigger pull. In one embodiment, the safety mechanism is further operable to lock the slide in the closed breech position when the safety is activated.

Firearm trigger mechanisms with rotatable linkage members and associated systems and methods are disclosed herein. A firearm trigger assembly configured in accordance with embodiments of the present technology can include, for example, a trigger, first and second linkage members, and a sear. The first linkage member, second linkage member, and sear are arranged in an over-center configuration that securely locks the sear in a first position. Pulling on the trigger causes the trigger to rotate about a fixed pivot point and push on one of the two linkage members, forcing the linkage members and the sear out of the over-center configuration. The force from a striking mechanism forces the sear and the linkage members into a collapsed configuration, releasing the striking mechanism and firing the firearm. This two toggle configuration of the trigger assembly provides crisp and reliable release of the firearm.

The present disclosure provides a Bluetooth operated lock for a trigger or a sheath. It is designed to limit the users' access to the use of the firearm. The only way to release the lock is through a wireless signal from a cell phone or another remote device. The disclosure includes a band having a first end and a second end configured to form a continuous loop around a firearm handle inside or outside the trigger. The disclosure also includes a locking mechanism connecting the first end and the second end which is operable via a wireless signal. The disclosure additionally includes a blocking mechanism on the band and configured to block a depression of the trigger and operable via the locking mechanism. The disclosure further includes a safety button on the band configured to engage the blocking mechanism when depressed and released via the wireless signal.

A trigger return and safety mechanism are mountable on a frame of a firearm. The trigger is mountable on the frame and pivotable about a trigger pivot axis. A strut is pivotably attached to the trigger at a strut pivot axis oriented parallel to and offset from the trigger pivot axis. The strut comprises a spring bearing surface and a safety bearing surface. A spring acts between the spring bearing surface and the frame for biasing the trigger into a reset position after the trigger has been pulled. A body is mountable on the frame, the body being movable between a first position wherein the body is not engageable with the safety bearing surface, thereby allowing pivoting motion of the trigger, and a second position wherein the body is engageable with the safety bearing surface thereby limiting pivoting motion of the trigger.

The present disclosure provides systems, devices, and techniques that can be implemented at a gun, such as an electromechanical gun. The gun may include a barrel located within a slide and a cylindrical spring enveloping the barrel. The barrel may be configured to act as a guide rod for the cylindrical spring, and the cylindrical spring may be configured to bias the slide in a forward battery position. The gun may include an electronic component such as an energy store, a processor, or a circuit board, located under the barrel and forward of the trigger when the gun is in an upright position. The gun may include a physical transmission medium that electronically couples the electronic component with an additional electronic component located rearward of the trigger, and the physical transmission medium may be at least partially encapsulated by a trigger guard.

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.
