Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Handschusswaffe umfassend ein Griffstück, an dessen in Gebrauchsstellung der Handschusswaffe vorderen Seite Finger eines Benutzers anliegen können.The present invention relates to a handgun comprising a handle on which in the position of use of the handgun front side fingers of a user can rest.

Eine Handschusswaffe der vorgenannten Art ist aus der deutschen Offenlegungsschrift DE 195 05 829 A1 bekannt. Die darin beschriebene Handschusswaffe weist ein Griffstück auf, das an der Vorderseite drei Griffmulden für die Anlage des Mittelfingers, des Ringfingers und des kleinen Fingers des Benutzers vorsieht. An der in Gebrauchsstellung der Handschusswaffe hinteren Seite des Griffstückes ist ein Rückenteil angeordnet, das zur Anlage der Handinnenfläche des Benutzers dient. Dieses Rückenteil ist bei dem vorgenannten Stand der Technik austauschbar, so dass das Griffstück an unterschiedliche Anforderungen oder unterschiedliche Benutzer anpassbar ist.A handgun of the aforementioned type is known from German patent application DE 195 05 829 A1. The handgun described therein has a handle, which provides at the front three recessed grips for the investment of the middle finger, the ring finger and the little finger of the user. At the rear in the use position of the firearm weapon side of the handle a back part is arranged, which serves to rest the palm of the user. This back part is interchangeable in the aforementioned prior art, so that the handle is adaptable to different requirements or different users.

Auf dem Markt werden seit einiger Zeit verstärkt sogenannte Kompaktwaffen angeboten und nachgefragt. Gewöhnlich handelt es sich bei Kompaktwaffen um Waffen geringer Größe. Kompaktwaffen sind häufig Varianten von Waffen in voller Größe. Somit kann der Anwender Waffen unterschiedlicher Größe auswählen, die der gleichen Produktfamilie angehören. Kompaktwaffen werden bevorzugt verdeckt getragen und weisen eine geringere Größe auf als normale Handschusswaffen, wie beispielsweise klassische Militärpistolen. Insbesondere besitzt eine derartige Kompaktwaffe einen kürzeren Lauf, einen kürzeren Verschluss sowie ein in seiner Höhe kleineres Griffstück. Ein derartiges kleineres Griffstück bietet für den Benutzer nur noch Angreifmöglichkeiten für zwei Finger und nicht mehr für drei Finger. Aus diesem Grund können derartige Kompaktwaffen nicht ausreichend gut gehalten werden, so dass die Treffsicherheit beeinträchtigt wird. Weiterhin werden bei den bekannten Kompaktwaffen kleinere speziell auf die Größe des Griffstückes abgestimmte Magazine verwendet, die entsprechend weniger Patronen aufnehmen können.For some time now so-called compact weapons have been increasingly offered and in demand on the market. Usually, compact weapons are small-sized weapons. Compact weapons are often variants of full-size weapons. Thus, the user can select weapons of different sizes that belong to the same product family. Compact weapons are preferably worn face down and are smaller in size than normal handguns, such as classic military pistols. In particular, such a compact weapon has a shorter barrel, a shorter closure and a smaller in height handle. Such a smaller grip offers the user only attack possibilities for two fingers and not for three fingers. For this reason, such compact weapons can not be kept sufficiently good, so that the accuracy is impaired. Furthermore, in the known compact weapons smaller especially on the size of the handle used matched magazines, which can accommodate correspondingly fewer cartridges.

Das der vorliegenden Erfindung zugrunde liegende Problem ist die Schaffung einer Handschusswaffe der eingangs genannten Art, die von einem Benutzer besser gegriffen werden kann.The problem underlying the present invention is the creation of a handgun of the type mentioned, which can be better grasped by a user.

Dies wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch erreicht, dass die Handschusswaffe ein Verlängerungsstück umfasst, das in Gebrauchsstellung der Handschusswaffe das Griffstück nach unten verlängern kann. Dies ist insbesondere bei den vorgenannten Kompaktwaffen als großer Vorteil anzusehen, weil dadurch der bei den Kompaktwaffen vergleichsweise kurze Griff derart verlängert werden kann, dass der Benutzer die Handschusswaffe sicherer greifen kann.This is inventively achieved in that the handgun includes an extension piece that can extend the handle down in the position of use of the handgun. This is to be regarded as a great advantage, in particular in the aforementioned compact weapons, because thereby the comparatively short handle in the compact weapons can be extended so that the user can grasp the handgun more secure.

Eine erfindungsgemäße Waffe kann dementsprechend als Kompaktwaffe ausgebildet sein, wobei sie in Gebrauchsstellung eine Höhe von weniger als 130 mm, insbesondere eine Höhe von etwa 110 mm aufweisen kann. Diese Höhe von etwa 110 mm kann durch das Verlängerungsstück deutlich verlängert werden.A weapon according to the invention may accordingly be designed as a compact weapon, wherein it may have a height of less than 130 mm, in particular a height of about 110 mm in the position of use. This height of about 110 mm can be significantly extended by the extension piece.

Erfindungsgemäß kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Handschusswaffe einen Magazinkörper umfasst, der in Gebrauchsstellung der Handschusswaffe von unten in das Griffstück einschiebbar ist. Durch das zusätzliche Verlängerungsstück, das an der Unterseite des Griffstückes angeordnet werden kann, können bei einer erfindungsgemäßen Handschusswaffe Magazinkörper verwendet werden, die normalerweise nur bei normalen Pistolen eingesetzt sind und bei den auf dem Markt befindlichen Kompaktwaffen nicht optimal eingesetzt werden können. Für die Anwender liegt es nahe, Magazine von Waffen mit voller Größe aus der gleichen Produktfamilie zu verwenden. Die Magazine mit voller Größe stehen aber über den kurzen Griff der Kompaktwaffen hervor und irritieren den Anwender. Es sieht aus, als ob das Magazin nicht vollständig in das Griffstück eingeführt ist und es versehentlich heraus rutscht. Außerdem ist der Magazinschacht nicht geschlossen, wodurch die Gefahr des Eindringens von Schmutz besteht. Eine erfindungsgemäße Handschusswaffe bietet somit die Möglichkeit, trotz einer Ausführung als Kompaktwaffe handelsübliche Magazine mit einer deutlich größeren Anzahl von Patronen zu verwenden.According to the invention, it may be provided that the hand-held weapon comprises a magazine body, which can be inserted into the grip piece from below in the position of use of the hand-held weapon. By the additional extension piece, which can be arranged on the underside of the handle, can be used in a handgun invention magazine body, which are normally used only in normal pistols and can not be optimally used in the compact weapons on the market. For users, it makes sense to get magazines of full size weapons from the same product family use. However, the full size magazines stand out over the short handle of the compact weapons and irritate the user. It looks as if the magazine is not fully inserted into the handle and it accidentally slips out. In addition, the magazine shaft is not closed, whereby there is a risk of ingress of dirt. A handgun according to the invention thus offers the possibility of using commercially available magazines with a significantly larger number of cartridges despite being designed as a compact weapon.

Alternativ zur Ausführung der Handschusswaffe als Pistole kann die Handschusswaffe auch als Trommelrevolver oder dergleichen ausgeführt sein.As an alternative to the execution of the handgun as a pistol handgun can also be designed as a drum turret or the like.

Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der vorliegenden Erfindung ist das Verlängerungsstück mit dem Griffstück verbindbar. Die Verbindung von Verlängerungsstück und Griffstück kann beispielsweise durch einseitiges Einhaken, Verstiften oder Einrasten auf der einen Seite und Verstiften oder Einrasten an der gegenüberliegenden Seite oder durch Aufschieben auf eine Führung oder durch Verkleben oder durch einen Bajonettverschluss oder durch Verrasten realisiert werden. Insbesondere die lösbaren der vorgenannten Verbindungsmethoden bieten die Möglichkeit, bei Bedarf das Griffstück durch das Verlängerungsstück zu verlängern und beispielsweise für das verdeckte Tragen der Kompaktwaffe das Verlängerungsstück wieder von dem Griffstück zu entfernen.According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the extension piece is connectable to the handle. The connection of extension piece and handle can be realized, for example, by unilateral hooking, pinning or latching on one side and pinning or latching on the opposite side or by sliding on a guide or by gluing or by a bayonet lock or by latching. In particular, the releasable of the aforementioned connection methods offer the opportunity to extend the handle if necessary by the extension piece and, for example, for the concealed carrying the compact weapon to remove the extension piece of the handle again.

Gemäß einer alternativen Ausführungsform der vorliegenden Erfindung ist das Verlängerungsstück mit dem Magazinkörper verbindbar, so dass durch Einschieben des Magazinkörpers in das Griffstück die Verlängerung des Griffstückes durch das Verlängerungsstück erreicht wird. Dazu kann das Verlängerungsstück beispielsweise als Hülse ausgebildet sein und derart auf den Magazinkörper aufschiebbar sein, dass das Verlängerungsstück auf der Oberseite eines an der Unterseite des Magazinkörpers angebrachten Magazinschuhs aufliegt. Die Verbindung des Verlängerungsstücks mit dem Griffstück über das Einschieben des Magazinkörpers bietet den Vorteil, dass kein zusätzlicher Arbeitsschritt erforderlich ist, um Griffstück und Verlängerungsstück miteinander zu verbinden.According to an alternative embodiment of the present invention, the extension piece is connectable to the magazine body, so that the extension of the handle is achieved by the extension piece by inserting the magazine body in the handle. This can be the extension piece For example, be designed as a sleeve and be pushed onto the magazine body such that the extension piece rests on the top of a mounted on the bottom of the magazine body Magazinschuhs. The connection of the extension piece with the handle on the insertion of the magazine body offers the advantage that no additional step is required to connect handle and extension piece together.

Erfindungsgemäß kann vorgesehen sein, dass das Griffstück auf seiner in Gebrauchsstellung der Handschusswaffe vorderen Seite zwei Griffmulden für den Mittelfinger und den Ringfinger eines Benutzers aufweist. Weiterhin kann erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen sein, dass das Verlängerungsstück auf seiner in Gebrauchsstellung der Handschusswaffe vorderen Seite eine Griffmulde aufweist, die insbesondere für die Anlage des kleinen Fingers des Benutzers dienen kann. Auf diese Weise wird durch die Verbindung von Griffstück und Verlängerungsstück dem Benutzer eine Anzahl von Griffmulden zur Verfügung gestellt, die der handelsüblicher großer Handschusswaffen entspricht, so dass die Handschusswaffe sicher von dem Schützen gegriffen werden kann.According to the invention can be provided that the handle has on its front in the use position of the handgun weapon two recessed grips for the middle finger and the ring finger of a user. Furthermore, it can be provided according to the invention that the extension piece on its front in the use position of the handgun weapon has a recessed grip, which can serve in particular for the plant of the little finger of the user. In this way, the user is provided by the combination of handle and extension a number of recesses available, which corresponds to the commercial large handguns, so that the handgun can be safely gripped by the shooter.

Weiterhin kann vorgesehen sein, dass das Griffstück und das Verlängerungsstück auf ihrer in Gebrauchsstellung der Handschusswaffe hinteren Seite Rückenteile aufweisen. Somit wird durch die Verbindung von Griffstück mit Verlängerungsstück auch das Rückenteil des Griffstückes derart verlängert, dass eine ausreichend große Anlagefläche für die Handinnenfläche zur Verfügung gestellt wird.Furthermore, it can be provided that the handle and the extension piece on its rear in use position of the firearm weapon backs. Thus, the back part of the handle is extended by the connection of the handle with extension piece so that a sufficiently large contact surface for the palm is provided.

Vorteilhafterweise wird durch das Verlängerungsstück die für den Benutzer nutzbare Höhe des Griffes der Handschusswaffe um etwa 1/4 bis 1/2 der Höhe des Griffstücks, insbesondere um etwa 1/3 der Höhe des Griffstücks verlängert. Durch eine Verlängerung um etwa 1/3 der Höhe des Griffstücks wird somit aus einem Griff einer Kompaktwaffe ein Griff einer normalen Handschusswaffe, der von dem Benutzer problemlos gegriffen werden kann.Advantageously, by the extension piece usable for the user height of the handle of the handgun to about 1/4 to 1/2 of the height of the handle, in particular extended by about 1/3 of the height of the handle. By extending by about 1/3 of the height of the handle thus becomes a handle of a compact weapon a handle of a normal handgun, which can be easily gripped by the user.
