The invention pertains to a firing mechanism for a small arm, particularly a rifle, with a trigger ( 2 ) that can be pivoted about a trigger axis ( 12 ), with a trigger rod ( 4 ) that is displaceably arranged within a housing ( 1 ) and serves for respectively retaining and releasing a prestressed firing pin ( 6 ), and with an articulated lever ( 3 ) that is arranged within the housing ( 1 ) such that it can be pivoted about a pivot axis ( 20 ) and is connected in an articulated fashion to the trigger rod ( 4 ), with said articulated lever being connected to the trigger ( 2 ) via the trigger rod ( 4 ). The resistance of the trigger can be easily changed without requiring significant constructive modifications if the articulated lever ( 3 ) that is connected in an articulated fashion to the trigger rod ( 4 ) has an upwardly protruding catch ( 22 ) that engages into a lower latching groove ( 19 ) on the trigger ( 2 ) in a cocked position of the firing mechanism, with the latching groove ( 19 ) being provided with an oblique stopping face ( 33 ) for a front edge ( 34 ) of the catch ( 22 ).
