Mexican Standoff Gun Trigger

One of the worst parts of being in a Mexican standoff is the uncertainty about whether, in the event that a bullet enters your body or head, your nerves will properly and reflexively fire your own gun, destroying your destroyer in a balletic display of righteous juxtahumous vengeance.

But with the Mexican Standoff Gun Trigger, you won't have to wonder. And your opponent won't wonder, either, whether he feels lucky enough to hit your brain stem, interrupting the nervous pathways to your finger, allowing him to unleash his wrath without retribution. Because he'll know that luck has nothing to do with it.

The Mexican Standoff Gun Trigger works thusly: Pulling the trigger all the way back does not fire the gun, but cocks it. It is the release of the trigger--allowing it to move forward under spring pressure--that actuates the hammer or striker. In the event that the body is freed from the will of its spirit, the finger holding the Mexican Standoff Gun Trigger goes lax, and the gun fires.

This is, of course, not the only reason one might want the Mexican Standoff Gun Trigger. I suspect that accuracy could be improved if a gun were to fire upon relaxation, as opposed to increasing muscle tension, so sport target shooters, hunters, or even snipers might benefit from this trigger system, too.
