All Thumbs — The Winchester 99 Thumb ModelProduced in 1904 but patterned after the .22lr 1902 single shot, the Thumb Model 99 was different in respect that it lacked a traditional trigger. Instead the “trigger” was located at the top of the rifle directly behind the firing pin. It was believed that pushing a button with the thumb would less likely lead to jerking rather than pulling a trigger. -- source link
