Hi,

Thank you both for your compliments

Fernando, did you save the altered version (i corrected a few names after Michael's input

)

I know its getting down to silly detail but their doesn't seem to be a general agreement about a descriptor for item 30/38. Proposed 'trigger release '
Other variations include 'trigger lever' or 'secondary sear'. I sometimes refer to it as a 'prop' because that describes what it effective does. That is props up the tail of the primary sear locking the primary sear into the wheel. I think my preferred descriptor would be 'secondary sear' in order to avoid confusion with some earlier locks that use a single sear .
