Benefits of technology

[0017] The trigger mechanism and/or the firearm in accordance with the present invention may also have a ratio of sear engagement to trigger pull distance greater than or equal to 0.5 and less than or equal to 10.0. Moreover, the trigger mechanism and/or the fir

Problems solved by technology

Obtaining a lightweight trigger while maintaining safety has been difficult.
However, certain problems exist with such an approach.
The surfaces and edges of the two hardened steel components of the sear can degrade over time by wear, corrosion, and additional factors.
Therefore, accidental discharge of the firearm can suddenly occur without warning after prolonged use or storage, especially in a corrosive environment.
Even the presence of a safety mechanism may not be satisfactory.
For example, if a saf
