Abstract

A trigger assembly (10) comprising a trigger mechanism (12) and a firing device (16). The firing device (16) comprises a control assembly (40) and an actuator (18) which is operatively coupled to the control assembly (40). The actuator (18) comprises an actuation rod (20) moveable between a first rod position (26) and a second rod position (28). The firing device (16) further comprises a lever (30) which is operatively connected to the trigger mechanism (12) and to the actuation rod (20), the lever (30) being moveable between a first lever position (32) and a second lever position (34) relative to the actuation rod (20) wherein movement of the actuation rod (20) to the second rod position (28) causes the lever (30) to move to the second lever position (34) causing the trigger mechanism (12) to release.
