Claims
- 1. A sear actuator for a gun having a receiver, a trigger supported by the receiver and a sear housed within said receiver, comprising a rotatable member extending between opposing walls of the receiver and a slidable rod extending transversely internally through said rotatable member so as to be rotatable therewith through like angles of movement, said member being rotatable between a first position in which said rod is arranged to interconnect motion of the trigger to the sear and a second position in which said rod is rotated therewith so that the interconnection between the trigger and the sear is removed.
- 2. A sear actuator as claimed in claim 1, in combination with a trigger having an abutment face and a sear wherein the rotatable member is a cylinder having two opposed nonparallel surfaces and said rod is slidable between said surfaces such that in said first position and with the trigger at a rest position an abutment face of the sear is in parallel contact with one of said surfaces and the rod holds the abutment face of the trigger out of contact with the other of said surfaces, and with the trigger in a firing position the abutment face of the trigger is in parallel contact with said other of said surfaces and the rod moves the abutment face of the sear out of contact with said one surface.
- 3. A sear actuator as claimed in claim 2, wherein bias means are provided to bias the rod, in said first position, toward the trigger.
- 4. A sear actuator as claimed in claim 3, wherein the bias means is a cantilever spring, said spring being located in the cylinder with free ends of the spring mounted in mutually perpendicular holes in the cylinder and rod.
