This video breaks down the fundamental mechanics of firearm triggers, explaining the critical roles of the sear, hammer, and their pivot points. It emphasizes the importance of geometry, particularly the 90-degree tangent relationship at the sear's contact point, and how this applies to both rotating hammers and sliding strikers. The instructor also highlights the physics of pressure and area in trigger components and the key adjustments for engagement, overtravel, and weight.
