A trigger mechanism for an automatic weapon which has a bolt carrier recicatably mounted in a receiver and biased to slide from a recoiled position to a firing position. The mechanism has a hammer positioned alongside the bolt carrier and pivotally mounted on the receiver for reciprocating between a retracted and a striking position. Also included are a bias spring, a trigger and a catch. The trigger is rotatably mounted on the receiver while the bias spring is attached to the hammer for urging it into a striking position.
