  • an inner shaft having at least one delivery platform for deployment of at least one intraluminal device;

    an outer sheath surrounding the inner shaft and having a pre-deployment configuration and a deployment configuration;

    wherein when in the pre-deployment configuration the outer sheath covers the at least one delivery platform and wherein when in the deployment configuration the outer sheath exposes at least one of the at least one delivery platform so as to deploy at least one of the at least one intraluminal device;

    a handle housing having a trigger operatively coupled to the outer sheath, wherein the trigger is configured to cause the outer sheath to withdraw from over the inner shaft and to facilitate movement of the outer sheath from the pre-deployment configuration to the deployment configuration;

    an interlock engageable with at least one of the trigger, the outer sheath, and the inner shaft and having a locked position and an unlocked position, wherein the interlock is configured to substantially prevent movement of at least one of the inner shaft and the outer sheath with respect to the handle housing when in the locked position, and wherein the interlock is configured to allow movement of at least one of the inner shaft and the outer sheath with respect to the handle housing when in the unlocked position;

    an inner shaft adjuster operatively coupled to the inner shaft and one or more of the handle housing and the interlock, wherein the inner shaft adjuster is configured to change a position of the inner shaft with respect to at least one of the handle housing and the outer sheath; and

    a cap moveable with respect to the housing and having a lock, wherein when locked the cap is configured to prevent the interlock from moving from the locked position to the unlocked position, and wherein when unlocked the cap is configured to allow the interlock to move from the locked position to the unlocked position, wherein the cap is rotatable with respect to the handle housing and fixed with respect to the handle housing in a proximal-distal direction.
