Abstract

See full text

A reduced friction trigger for a crossbow including a catch moveable between a closed position that retains the draw string in a drawn configuration and an open position that releases the draw string to a released configuration position such that after firing the crossbow the catch is biased to the open position. A sear is moveable between a de-cocked position and a cocked position coupled with the catch at an interface to retain the catch in the closed position such that after firing the crossbow the sear is retained in the de-cocked position by the catch, the sear being biased to the cocked position by a sear biasing force. A low friction device is located at the interface of the catch with the sear. A force sufficient to overcome frictional forces at the interface to release the catch to the open position is less than the sear biasing force.
