Soft pull trigger mechanism
First Claim
1. A soft pull trigger mechanism for use with rifles having a sear comprising:
- a) a trigger pivotably attached to an encasement, said encasement having an upper portion;
b) a tripper pivotably attached to the encasement, positioned forward of said trigger and in operable communication with said trigger;
c) a trip, having a lower frame that is pivotably attached to said tripper;
d) a top bearing, pivotably attached to said lower frame of said trip and being positioned such that said top bearing is in operable communication with said sear; and
e) a trip spring, having two ends, installed in said encasement, and further wherein one of said two ends of said trip spring is attached to a pin installed in said encasement and the other of said two ends is attached to said tripperf) whereby when said trigger is pulled, said trigger causes said tripper to rotate forward, causing said lower frame and top bearing to rotate rearwardly until said top bearing slides off said sear.

Abstract
A trigger mechanism that gives a shooter a durable, adjustable, soft and gentle pull. In this design, the sear block remains, but the trigger mechanism is replaced with a new, softer action mechanism. This mechanism uses a tripper that attaches to a trip. The trip is a formed body that has a lower frame and a top bearing that sits against the bottom of the seer. When the trigger is pulled, it rotates the tripper forward, which causes the trip to rotate backwards. The backward movement of the trip causes the top bearing to roll off the bottom of the seer, causing the gun to fire. The rotation of the trip is smooth compared to the snapping action of the seer in the prior art designs. This smooth movement does not jar the action, making for a better shot.
