| 20100229446 | BREAK-ACTION FIREARM AND TRIGGER MECHANISM - A firearm having a frame and a barrel pivotally mounted to the frame, and further including a locking block pivotally mounted to the frame and movable between a first position and a second position, wherein in the first position the locking block engages the barrel to prevent pivotal motion thereof; and a trigger mechanism for a firearm having a neutral center of gravity, the trigger member having a geometry that results in an equal and/or symmetric distribution of its mass relative to the pivot point of the trigger, wherein impact caused by dropping the firearm will result in substantially equal application of forces on opposed sides of the trigger member, thereby reducing the likelihood of unintended discharge of the firearm. | 09-16-2010 |
