ABSTRACT:
A dual-motion firing device having both its firing and its arming mechani internal to its tubular housing. A tubular sear is enclosed by the housing and, in turn, encloses an arming rod, both sear and rod extending out of the housing. A tubular firing pin capped and nippled on its forward end encloses the front end of the sear. Pushing the arming rod forward releases a ball which restrains the sear from rearward movement. Then, pulling the sear backward releases another ball which prevents forward motion of the firing pin and a spring propels the latter forward sharply.
