ABSTRACT:
This invention is an integrated three-position or three-stage safety mechanism for firearms that allows the release of a locked breech bolt mechanism while a Safety Lever is in the "Safe" (Position No. 1) or no fire position, when the trigger and/or the sear mechanism is locked. While in Position No. 1, the safety mechanism allows the firearms' handler or user the ability to depress the Safety Level (Position No. 2) to release, lift, rotate, open, and/or remove the bolt assembly as desired. The design of the Safety mechanism prohibits the operator from inadvertently moving the Safety Lever to the OFF or "Fire" position (Position No. 3), while depressing the Safety Lever (Position No. 2) to release the bolt assembly. This allows removal of the "live" or empty cartridges while the Safety Lever is locked and blocked in the "Safe" or OFF position, thus significantly enhancing the safety of this operation.
This invention is an adaptable enhancement to firearms that use the older or recent two-stage top or side safety trigger blockage or sear blockage safety devices, thus enhancing the safety and handling features on a wide variety of firearms. The adaptation of this invention as an enhanced safety replacement device is a simple task for a qualified gunsmith or one skilled in the art of firearm repairs.
