ABSTRACT:
A revolver having an essentially conventional hammer and trigger is provided with a main spring that combines the function of the separate hammer spring and trigger spring heretofore employed, the single main spring urging both the hammer and the trigger to their respective at-rest positions. A generally vertically disposed main spring lever is positioned rearwardly of the hammer and the trigger, the lower end of the main spring lever being pivotally mounted on the frame and the upper end being operatively connected to the hammer at a point below the pivot axis thereof. A generally horizontally disposed main spring is positioned between the trigger and the main spring lever, the forward end of the main spring being operatively connected to the trigger at a point below the pivot axis thereof and the rearward end of the spring being operatively connected to the main spring lever at a point intermediate the lower and upper ends thereof.
