  • Patent number: 4691461
    Abstract: A trigger mechanism permits the adjustment of trigger pull quickly and easily from the exterior of a handgun over a wide range of adjustment. A double trigger arrangement includes a means for moving a contact point between a front pivot trigger and the heel or face portion of a cooperating slide trigger so that the mechanical advantage between the first trigger and the firing mechanism can be varied. Adjustment may be achieved through the use of simple set screws fitted into the front pivot trigger which may be adjusted with simple tools. In an alternate embodiment, the contact point between the pivot trigger and the slide actuator can be changed by interchanging replaceable trigger shoes, each trigger shoe having a contact projection of a different location.
