Abstract
Disclosed herein is an enhanced fire control system for firearms having semi-automatic firing mechanisms. The system comprises a primary trigger, a secondary trigger, and a trigger stop having a stop riser. The trigger stop's stop riser limits breaking a trigger sear interface between the primary trigger and the firearm's hammer. The system is intended to reduce the risk of a firearm being unintentionally discharged as a result of the trigger being contacted with straps or other equipment the user is carrying or wearing, or as a result of contact with something in the environment.
