What is a Pistol Sear?

For avid gun enthusiasts, understanding the intricacies of firearm technology is essential. Among the various components of a semi-automatic pistol, one oft-overlooked piece of hardware is the sear. In this article, we will dive into the world of piston sears, exploring the definition, purpose, functionality, and legal considerations associated with these components.

Defining the Pistol Sear

A Sear is a Metal Bracket-like Component
A sear is a crucial metal plate or bracket-like component residing within a semi-automatic pistol’s receiver or slide assembly. It serves as an intermediary piece, acting between the firing mechanism (pistol mechanism) and trigger. Essentially, it translates the mechanical movement of the trigger’s depression into functional action for the gun to fire or release a predetermined amount of pressure (dwell) for single-firing. Think of a sear as an active participant that orchestrates this process while enabling efficient cycle control during recoil operations in semi-autos.
