WOW!
You´ve been busy!

Looks real nice and solid...although I can´t tell what Im looking at..
I don´t get the trigger...It seems to be facing backwards?

How does it hook onto the hammer?


I really like how you used the aluminium to build it as a compact block.

The "trigger" will work just as a lever :lol: because it's a recycle (If you read from the first page you'll see it was intended for a different mechanism).
One of the photo shows how the hammer is locked.

Ahhh..I was thrown off by the trigger-shape!
How is the hammer locked when the trigger is still pressed from the first shot then?

It is going to be semi auto right?

I'm sorry for all the questions...I'm just a noob.. :D

Oh..I gotta pay more attention ...Wow...I'm not sure but it looks like you're the first to make an actual semi here on SF..
Mechanically I mean.
awesome!

Check the photos :D
The lever that locks the hammer only touches the trigger when the hammer is locked, pushing it down a little and therefor contact with the trigger.
Tested it yesterday, all worked surprisingly, considering I haven't got teh springs right yet.
I'm sorry for all the questions...I'm just a noob.. Very Happy
:oops:

I'm having trouble understanding the mechanism too, but I'm just gonna wait until you post a video because that's the only way I'll get it :D
