Definitions

  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • compact weapons have been increasingly offered and in demand on the market.
  • compact weapons are small-sized weapons.
  • Compact weapons are often variants of full-size weapons.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • the known compact weapons smaller especially on the size of the handle used matched magazines, which can accommodate correspondingly fewer cartridges.
  • the problem underlying the present invention is the creation of a handgun of the type mentioned, which can be better grasped by a user.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • the handgun as a pistol handgun can also be designed as a drum turret or the like.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • the handle and the extension piece on its rear in use position of the firearm weapon backs.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • a hand gun according to the invention as shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, comprises a grip 1 which is arranged in the weft direction behind a trigger (not shown).
  • the handle 1 has on its front side in use position two recessed grips 2, 3 for the middle finger and the ring finger of a user.
  • the handle 1 also has on its rear in the position of use of the firearm firearm on a back part 4 for the plant of the palm of the user.
  • a compact weapon in contrast to normal handguns, such as classic Military pistols, having smaller dimensions.
  • a compact weapon may have a length L (see FIG. 1) of less than 180 mm, in particular a length L of about 169 mm.
  • a compact weapon can have a height H (see FIG. 1) of less than 130 mm, in particular of about 110 mm.
  • a handgun according to the invention may also be designed as a larger handgun.
  • a handgun according to the invention is designed as a pistol, in particular self-defense pistol with a magazine body 5, which is inserted into a corresponding recess of the handle 1.
  • a handgun according to the invention may also be designed as a revolver or the like.
  • the illustrated in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 embodiment of a handgun according to the invention further comprises an extension piece 6, which is attachable to the underside of the handle 1.
  • the handle 1 When attached to the underside of the handle extension piece 6 (see Fig. 2), the handle 1 is compared to the state with unattached extension piece significantly extended, for example, about 1/5 to 1/3 of its length.
  • the extension piece 6 has, in particular on its front in the position of use of the firearm weapon a recessed grip 7 and on its back in the position of use of the firearm weapon rear side 8.
  • the recessed grip 7 can be used to rest the little finger of the user, so that it can grip the handgun invention much safer.
  • the contact surface for the palm by the additional Back part 8 significantly enlarged (see Fig. 2).
  • the back part 8 can also be shaped so that the rear back part 4 is also part of the extension piece 6.
  • connection of extension piece 6 with handle 1 can be done in various ways.
  • the extension piece 6 is fastened by means of a bayonet catch or hooked on one side, for example the front side, snapped or pinned and is latched to the other side, for example the rear side or fastened by means of a pin.
  • the extension piece 6 is pushed onto a corresponding guide on the handle 1, for example, a dovetail or similar guide.
  • the extension piece 6 is fixed in its end position on the handle 1 latching.
  • the extension piece 6 is adhered to the handle 1.
  • a locking connection between extension piece 6 and handle 1 is provided.
  • the lower part of the front of the extension piece 6 in the position of use of the firearm can be shaped such that it merges with the magazine body 5 into the front part of a magazine shoe 9 attached to the underside of the magazine body 5 (see FIG. 4).
  • the extension piece 6 can not be connected directly to the grip piece 1, but can be attached to the magazine body 5.
  • the extension piece 6 is designed for example as a sleeve, from above (see Fig. 3) the magazine body 5 can be pushed and rests in its end position on the top of the magazine shoe 9.
  • An inventive designed as a compact weapon handgun has the advantage that due to the extension piece 6 magazines or magazine body 5, which are designed for much larger weapons than standard compact weapons, with such a compact weapon can be used.
