ABSTRACT:
A cylinder lock for a cartridge cylinder of a revolver in which an actuator is mounted on the trigger in such a way that when the trigger is pulled, the cylinder lock is retracted from locking engagement with the cylinder by means of a toggle action, thereby providing great mechanical advantage in overcoming a heavy cylinder-lock spring which holds the lock in engagement with the cylinder. The actuator is also arranged so that the cylinder-lock spring is not compressed during the return stroke of the trigger.
