G3 Trigger

The G3 trigger is located in the trigger pack of the G3’s lower receiver and serves to initiate the firing sequence. It is an original factory part made in Germany by HK.

Spare parts are an important consideration when it comes to firearms. Like any machine, firearms rely on a series of parts to function properly, including triggers. If a part breaks or fails, a repair or replacement is necessary.

It is also important to consider availability. At this time, Keepshooting.com has a wealth of authentic, original factory parts from HK for the G3/HK91/PTR91. Not only are they readily available, but also they are cheap. Now is the time to take advantage.

Chain Reaction

The function that a firearm’s trigger serves is actually a quite simple concept. To understand the chain reaction that a trigger initiates, one must be familiar with a few key components, including: the trigger, sear, hammer and firing pin. The sear is a part of the trigger mechanism that holds back the hammer, which is a device under spring-tension that, when released, strikes the firing pin. When enough pressure is applied to the trigger, it will manipulate the sear in a way that releases the hammer, which in turn will strike the firing pin, igniting the primer and discharging the firearm.
