After looking in various sites for trigger mech's, i decided do design my own trigger mech.

Its very simple although i feel there is room to improve.
In red you can see the mech ready to fire, and in green after shooting.
The spear isn't in the drawing.

Starting from the red posicion. First you pull the trigger wich in turn allows the sear to rotate downword allowing the release of the spear. The sear is keept in place due to a spring pressing the trigger forward.
When you place the spear inside, the back pushes the sear up and locking again in the trigger.

In arbalegno home you have a animation of this kind of trigger, just look for the mech (scatolla di scato) designed by Flaminio.

Hope you like it
