ABSTRACT:
A hand firearm has a firing pin which is pivotable between safety and firing positions and a hammer which has a striking surface engaging the firing pin when the firing pin is in its firing position and a recess which receives the firing pin when in its safety position. A first cocking lever is engageable with the hammer to maintain the hammer in its cocked position and there is a release lever pivotable between a first position and a second position in which the release lever engages a firing pin to move the firing pin to its firing position. The first cocking lever is disengaged from the hammer to release the hammer from a cocked position without pivoting of the release lever such that the firing pin remains in its safety position.
