ABSTRACT:
A cross bow trigger device having an automatically activated safety includes a trigger, a catch and at least one intermediate safety member cooperating with the catch. The catch is pivotally mounted in the trigger device and has an upper part extending above the trigger device. When a projectile pusher, such as a cross bow string, is being cocked back, it engages and pivots the catch. This pivoting motion automatically engages the catch with the intermediate safety member moving it to a position locking the trigger and preventing the trigger from being unintentionally pulled. The trigger device is also provided with a knob accessible for a user and connected to the intermediate safety member to manually unlock or lock the trigger.
