ABSTRACT:
A remote firing mechanism enables an operator to fire a weapon remotely, from a position other than from behind the breech, in order to minimize firing hazards to the operator. The remote firing mechanism is secured to a carrier assembly mounted on, or near the breech, for enabling an operator to fire the weapon from the right side of the weapon. The carrier assembly includes a connector secured to a linkage mechanism of the remote firing mechanism. In turn, the linkage mechanism is connected to a lanyard that enables the operator to initiate the firing operation. The linkage mechanism and the lanyard are positioned remotely from the breech.
