Abstract: A trigger position detection system in replica firearms which comprises a sensor built from at least one light source D1 (5), and at least one receiver Q1 (6) converting a light signal into an electrical signal. The light source D1 (5) and the light receiver Q1 (6) are located on a printed circuit board (7) in a way that they are deviated from the vertical axes running perpendicularly to the upper surface of the cylinder edge by an angle from the range of 0°-90°, and their active surfaces are directed towards the replica trigger (1). A method of detecting the position of the trigger in replica firearms comprising controlling the light source D1 (5) in such a manner that at fixed regular time intervals, each time it emits light for the same period of time, while directing the beam reflected from the surface of the replica trigger (1) towards the receiver Q1 (6).
