Definitions

  • the invention relates to a trigger device for a handgun, in particular a pistol, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the invention also relates to a pistol that uses a trigger device according to the invention.
  • the trigger device can also be used in pistol carbines or rifles which use a firing pin device with a firing pin and a firing pin flag projecting from the firing pin.
  • Trigger devices are used to fire a shot by actuating a trigger. More specifically, a trigger blade is depressed by the shooter, typically in the case of firing pin-operated handguns, mechanically locking the trajectory of the spring-loaded firing pin and accelerating it onto the cartridge igniter.
  • the trigger characteristics are primarily determined by the trigger travel, i.e. essentially the distance ("s") of the trigger blade from the rest position to the release of the firing pin, as well as the trigger weight, i.e. essentially the sum of the forces ("F") to release the To cause firing pin determined.
  • Double Action (DA) systems and Single Action (SA) systems, with combinations or mixed forms also existing.
  • DA Double Action
  • SA Single Action
  • the firing pin has to be cocked completely every time a shot is fired.
  • the firing pin is usually fully pre-tensioned, which means that a comparatively short trigger travel is possible and only overcoming the force(s) of the trigger spring(s) and/or the mechanical lock of the firing pin is required to fire the shot, which is known as the pressure point can be felt.
  • the firing pin flag is blocked or released directly by the trigger bar or a locking extension of the trigger bar, such as in the EP 0077790 B1 , EP 2171388 B1 , US10228207B1 , EP 1759162 B1 , EP 2884218 B1 or that US8925232B2 .
  • the disclosure of the cited documents is incorporated by reference into the present disclosure for the jurisdictions in which it is possible.
  • a blocking element is brought into the movement path of the firing pin vane, as exemplified in US5386659A , US7194833B1 or that DE 102005031927 B3 is presented.
  • This Locking element can take different forms and is used in conjunction with a fully preloadable firing pin to implement an SA system. The disclosure of these documents is also made part of the present disclosure by reference for the jurisdictions in which it is possible.
  • DA systems, SA systems or also combinations thereof for trigger devices are known in the prior art in order to be able to adjust the trigger characteristics in a targeted manner.
  • several trigger springs and/or auxiliary elements are often installed, as a result of which the trigger devices require a comparatively large number of components.
  • some known trigger devices have the disadvantage that if the handgun is knocked or dropped, the locking extension or the locking element can get out of the path of movement of the firing pin vane due to inertia and an unintentional shot can thus be fired.
  • an object of the present invention to overcome the existing problems in the prior art and to provide a trigger device which allows the trigger characteristics of a handgun to be adapted to the needs of the shooter in a relatively simple manner.
  • It is a particular object of the invention at least in one embodiment, to ensure the highest possible level of reliability during operation.
  • it is a further object of the invention in one embodiment, to be able to retrofit the trigger device in existing pistol models.
  • an embodiment of the invention has the task of reducing the risk of a missed shot due to an impact or fall load.
  • a trigger device with the features of the characterizing part of claim 1 for handguns, especially pistols, is suitable.
  • the handguns have a firing pin device with a spring-loaded firing pin and a firing pin vane protruding downward for interaction with the trigger device.
  • the trigger device comprises a trigger blade, a trigger spring, a trigger rod which is cranked twice, can be movably connected to the trigger blade in its front cranked area and has an end region with a control extension for interacting with a control spring on its rear cranked area, a control block, and an im Control block insertable control spring with a guide surface for the control extension.
  • the trigger bar of the present invention has in the area of the rear cranked section in front of the control extension a supporting extension curved in the direction of the weapon center plane to support a trigger spring guide and an actuating extension for interacting with a pawl holder.
  • the pawl holder comprises, on its rear end section, a receptacle for a release pawl intended to interact with the firing pin vane.
  • the pawl holder can be shaped in this area in such a way that it limits a tilting movement of the release pawl about a pawl axis running in the transverse direction of the handgun.
  • the pawl bracket is adapted to be pivotally supported at its front end portion in the control block about a bracket axis extending in the transverse direction.
  • the pawl holder has a middle section, which includes a bearing section and an actuating section connected rearwardly.
  • a catch arm projecting backwards over the length of the bearing section is formed on the upper side of the pawl holder.
  • the release pawl has a release surface facing the firing pin flag in the installed situation and an abutment for the trigger spring on the side facing away from it.
  • the total number of components of the extraction device can be kept relatively small.
  • only one trigger spring is required, which is pressure-loaded when installed and thus has an increased service life a tensile load can be expected and also fulfills several functions.
  • the functionality of the handgun during operation can be guaranteed, on the other hand, the trigger blade can be brought back into the starting position by the spring force after it has been released by the shooter's finger.
  • the movement of the slide and the interaction with the control spring bring the trigger bar back into the path of movement of the firing pin vane by the same trigger spring, whereby the firing pin can be caught before the trigger is pulled again and at the same time can be pretensioned again.
  • the present construction also allows a relatively simple adaptation of existing handguns, such as by replacing the existing trigger device with the trigger device according to the invention. Since the pawl holder, the trigger spring, the trigger spring guide and the release pawl are essentially arranged inside the control block, a conversion of the handgun may only require replacing the trigger bar and the control block with the internal components mentioned in extreme cases. A conversion of the slide, the firing pin device or the grip is usually not necessary.
  • the pawl holder can be composed of a plurality of partial elements or, preferably, can also be designed in one piece.
  • the pawl holder preferably has, starting from a connecting web, two bearing legs which are bent upwards in a substantially U-shape.
  • the catch arm can be arranged in the manner described above on at least one or even both bearing legs.
  • a particular advantage of the invention lies in the fact that an SA system can be implemented via the interaction of the components, which has an extremely "dry" trigger characteristic with a relatively short trigger travel and/or trigger weight.
  • This SA system can be converted to a partially preloaded DA system by a relatively simple exchange of the tripping pawl with a correspondingly different geometry.
  • a significant advantage compared to known systems is also that such a conversion can be carried out without losing the popular fall protection, since a movement of the pawl holder in the vertical direction downwards in a front, rest position corresponding position of the trigger bar can be prevented by a blocking effect of the actuating projection on the catch arm.
  • the actuating extension can be lengthened in the transverse direction in such a way that its end section engages in a control window in the control block, in a manner known per se. In a rear position corresponding to a release position, on the other hand, a release of the tilting movement of the pawl holder about the holding axis is made possible.
  • the present invention results in many advantages both for authorities and for sports shooters, who can adapt the same handgun to their needs and optimize the trigger characteristics based on the present disclosure.
  • Some preferred exemplary embodiments relate, among other things, to the arrangement or design of the trigger spring, the trigger spring guide, the shape of the release pawl and/or the pawl holder, or also a release angle, as will be explained in more detail below with reference to the figures.
  • the indicated coordinate systems are intended as a spatial orientation aid in relation to the handgun held in the hand ready to fire in the usual way and designate the direction forwards, i.e. in the firing direction 91, to the side, i.e. in the transverse direction 92, and in the normal direction upwards 93.
  • the weapon has a central weapon plane that runs through the barrel axis and is oriented vertically, which, cum grano salis, forms a plane of symmetry.
  • the 1 schematically shows a handgun 1 in a top view.
  • the dot-dash line AA ' indicates the broken section plane, along which the handgun 1, in Fig. 1b is shown in the partial sectional view in a side view.
  • the handgun 1 is shown as a pistol 1 in the following description and the invention is explained in more detail using the function of a pistol.
  • the trigger device according to the invention in pistol carbines or rifles, provided that these have a firing pin device 15 and/or a closure 12 that are suitable for interacting with the trigger device 2 according to the invention.
  • the pistol 1 comprises a carriage 12 which also serves as a breech and accommodates the firing pin device 15, among other things.
  • the closing spring unit 14 is used to bring the carriage 12 into the rest position or closed position and does not need to be explained in more detail.
  • the trigger device 2 is mounted in the grip 13 of the pistol 1 .
  • the trigger more precisely the trigger blade 21, is in the rear position, ie the release position for the trigger device 2, and the firing pin 151 is in its front position, where it hits the case base of a cartridge.
  • FIG. 12 is an isolated illustration of an extraction device 2 according to the invention in a sectional view on the section plane AA′ Fig.1a shown, but the trigger device 2 is shown here in the ready-to-use position with the firing pin 151 cocked.
  • the trigger device 2 comprises, similar to the prior art, a trigger blade 21, a trigger spring 5, a trigger rod 22 with a control extension 223, a control block 23 with a control spring 232.
  • the trigger bar 22 is bent twice ( 3 ), can be movably connected to the trigger blade 21 in its front cranked section and has an end region with the control projection 223 for interaction with the control spring 232 on its rear cranked section, see comparative 6 .
  • a firing pin safety extension 224 is formed on the upper side of the trigger rod 22, which in a known manner releases a firing pin safety before the shot is fired when the trigger is actuated.
  • the trigger blade 21 is mounted in the grip 13 such that it can be pivoted about a trigger axis 211 .
  • the trigger safety device 212 which is known to the person skilled in the art and therefore does not have to be explained in more detail, can also be seen in this illustration.
  • the control spring 232 can be inserted or plugged into the control block 23 and has a guide surface 233 for the control extension 223 .
  • the way in which the control spring 232 works in conjunction with the control extension 223 of the trigger rod 22 is well known to those skilled in the art. For a more detailed explanation, including on the EP 0077790 B1 referred.
  • the trigger device 2 is designed to interact with the firing pin 151 of the firing pin device 15 .
  • the firing pin spring 153 can be arranged around the firing pin 151 and is in a (partially) preloaded state.
  • the trigger spring 5 is supported on one side on the release latch 4 and tries to push them up.
  • a blocking element in this specific case the release pawl 4, engages the firing pin vane 152 and blocks the firing pin 151 in its path of movement.
  • the release pawl 4 is accommodated in the pawl holder 3 and can be brought down out of the movement path of the firing pin 151 when the trigger device 2 is actuated. From the synopsis with the rest of the characters, especially with the figs 3a and b , such as figs 4a and b , the function of the trigger device will now be explained in more detail.
  • the trigger bar 22 has a supporting extension 221 bent in the direction of the center plane of the weapon to support the trigger spring 5 .
  • a trigger spring guide 51 is provided in order to keep or guide the trigger spring 5 in the correct position when it is loaded or unloaded.
  • the trigger bar 22 also has an actuating extension 222 for interacting with a bearing 331 and/or actuating section 332 of the pawl holder 3, see e.g 6 .
  • the pawl holder 3 can be in one piece, for example as a cast part, stamped bent part or 3D printed part, see also 7 , or be designed in several parts.
  • the pawl holder 3 is designed in one piece and includes a connecting web 37, of which two essentially U-shaped bearing legs 38 are bent upwards.
  • the rear end section 34 of the pawl holder is designed to accommodate and limit the tilting movement of the release pawl 4 provided for interaction with the firing pin flag 152 about a pawl axis 41 running in the transverse direction 92 .
  • the front end section 32 of the pawl holder 3 is designed for pivotable mounting in the control block 23 about a holder axis 31 running in the transverse direction 92 .
  • the mounting axis 31 can be used as in figure 5 shown, for example, be designed as a pin or bearing pin. In this way, by removing the control block 23 the trigger device 2 can be completely removed from the grip 13 or replaced.
  • the central section 33 of the pawl holder 3 has a bearing section 331 and an actuating section 332 which is connected to the rear, ie in the rest position counter to the shooting direction 91 .
  • the actuating section 332 can preferably be inclined upwards by a defined release angle 36 relative to the bearing section 331, as is also shown in all of the figures.
  • a catch arm 35 projecting backwards over the length of the bearing section 331 is formed on the upper side of the pawl holder 3 .
  • the catch arm 35 is preferably arranged on at least one bearing leg 38 of the pawl holder 3 and can also be formed on both bearing legs 38 to increase the symmetry and the introduction of force.
  • the withdrawal device in figs 3a and 4a is in the rest position, the trigger blade 21 is in the forward position and the firing pin flag 152 is blocked by the release pawl 4.
  • This position essentially corresponds to a rest position, with the firing pin spring 153 (not shown) being at least partially prestressed, preferably completely prestressed, as will be explained later.
  • the trigger device 2 in figs 3b and 4b is in the release position, after which the release pawl 4 has released the firing pin flag 152 and the firing pin 151 is accelerated in the direction of the dashed arrow along its path of movement.
  • the pawl holder 3 is mounted in the control block 23 so that it can rotate about a holder axis 31 and is pressed upwards in the direction 93 by the action of the trigger spring 5, which is supported on the release pawl 4 on one side.
  • the other side of the trigger spring 5 is on a support extension 221 of the trigger rod 22 specially provided for this purpose, see here for comparison 6 , propped up.
  • the rotation of the pawl holder 3 is limited upwards by the shape of the pawl holder 3 in cooperation with the flat support of the actuating extension 222 . In the rest position, the actuating extension 222 is in the area of the bearing section 331.
  • the actuating extension 222 is formed far enough in the transverse direction 92 that it can engage with its end section in a control window 231 on the opposite side of the control block 23 and is guided or temporarily supported there can be.
  • the risk of the trigger rod 22 being lowered unintentionally can also be avoided.
  • the trigger rod 22 By actuating the trigger blade 21, the trigger rod 22 is moved backwards essentially in a straight line. As a result, the actuating section 222 of the trigger bar 22, which is bent in the direction of the weapon center plane, is also moved backwards and moves out of the bearing section 331 into the adjoining actuation section 332.
  • This actuation section 332 can be straight or, preferably, inclined upwards by a defined release angle 36 relative to the bearing section 331 .
  • the backward movement of the trigger rod 22 now initiates a downward movement of the pawl holder 3 against the spring force of the trigger spring 5 via the actuating extension 222 .
  • the release pawl 4 has a release surface 42 facing the firing pin flag 152 in the installed situation.
  • the release pawl 4 accommodated therein is brought downwards out of engagement with the firing pin flag 152—the shot is fired.
  • the trigger spring 5 when the shot is fired by the backward movement of the support extension 221 of Trigger bar 22 is compressed.
  • the trigger spring 5 is constantly supported on the release pawl 4 in the lower area, ie below the pawl axis 41, on a side essentially facing away from the release surface 42 on an abutment 43.
  • the release pawl 4 is designed in such a way that it rotates on one side about the pawl axis 41 ( Figure 7c ) can perform a limited rotation. While rotation of the release pawl 4 is prevented when pressure is applied to the release surface 42 by contact with the pawl holder 3, a predetermined rotation in the opposite direction is made possible.
  • the angular range can preferably be between 10° and 25°, particularly preferably between about 15-20°, in particular 17°.
  • This design is helpful when the firing pin device 15 is uncocked and the slide 12 has to be pulled back manually in order to tension the firing pin spring 153 and to get the firing pin flag 152 behind the release pawl 4, although the pawl holder 3, in particular the catch arm 35, interacts with the actuating extension 222 a downward movement of the release latch 4 hindered.
  • This situation can occur, for example, when the trigger device 2 is actuated without ammunition (eg "dry training" - "dry fire”), or an ignition inhibition of the cartridge does not initiate a recoil-induced slide movement.
  • the trigger tongue 21 is moved forwards by the force of the trigger spring 5, but - as previously described - the pawl holder 3 is pushed upwards, which, in cooperation with the actuating extension 222 and the catch arm 35, causes the pawl holder to move 3 is obstructed downwards.
  • the special training is now possible that the release pawl 4 during manual tensioning no significant blocking effect on the Firing pin flag 152 exerts, although the pawl holder 3 remains in its rest position and does not deviate down.
  • the release pawl 4 can be tilted backwards by the predetermined angle of 10° to 25°, preferably 15° to 20°, in particular 17°, and enables a simple loading process that is gentle on the material.
  • the trigger device 2 has only one trigger spring 5 in order to coordinate all movement sequences and carry them out as described.
  • the trigger spring 5 could theoretically also be supported directly on the support extension 221 .
  • the trigger spring guide is not limited to the preferred embodiment, as illustrated, having a trigger spring guide 51 located internally. It is also conceivable that the trigger spring guide is designed as a tubular guide with internal trigger spring 5 .
  • a trigger spring guide 51 arranged on the inside is preferably formed, since this can be installed in a very space-saving manner and is also highly reliable.
  • the internal trigger spring guide 51 requires the presence of a passage opening 44 on the abutment 43 of the release pawl 4 in order to allow a backward deflection when the trigger blade 21 is actuated. This fact becomes very clear from the comparison of the figs 4a and b , reference numerals in Fig. 78c.
  • a border 46 can be provided which faces the support extension 221—viewed in the installation situation.
  • This border 46 can provide improved limitation of the play of the trigger spring 5 on the abutment 43, thereby reducing the risk of the trigger spring 5 slipping to the side can. In this way, the dynamic stability of the trigger device 2 can be improved.
  • the boundary may be substantially circular. The diameter of the limitation can be smaller or larger than the diameter of the trigger spring 5 in this area.
  • individual extensions can also be formed as a border 46 with the same effect.
  • FIG. 8a to 8c Another particularly preferred embodiment is very clear from the synopsis of 4 With Figures 8a to 8c visible, according to which the trigger spring guide 51 has a fork-shaped recess 52 at its end facing the support extension 221 . It is also conceivable for the trigger spring guide 51 to be mounted in a manner similar to a connecting rod eye, but the formation of a recess 52 has the advantage of simpler assembly.
  • the passage opening 44 can be designed as a slit or hole, with or without an opening at the bottom.
  • other geometries such as a ball head or similar shapes in cooperation with a correspondingly adapted passage opening 44 are also conceivable, it has proven to be advantageous if said end has a T-shape. See eg Figures 8b and 8c in synopsis with figure 5 , Figures 9b and 10b .
  • the trigger spring 5 it enables the trigger spring 5 to be installed relatively easily by sliding it onto the trigger spring guide 51, inserting and twisting the trigger spring guide 51 through the passage opening 44. In the installed state, the desired locking effect results at the front, making it easier to remove or replace the trigger device 2 as a whole .
  • the release pawl 4 on the abutment 43 has a slit-shaped passage opening 44 that is preferably closed at the bottom when viewed in the installation situation.
  • the use of a ball head or similar mounts would also be suitable for blocking the trigger spring guide 51 to the front after the trigger spring guide 51 has been inserted into the passage opening 44 from below, for example.
  • the passage opening 44 is below designed closed, the removal of this sub-assembly can be done together with the pawl holder 3 or the release pawl 4, whereby a faster conversion is made possible when changing the release pawl 4, for example.
  • the trigger characteristics of the handgun 1 can be advantageous to adapt to the needs of the user by optimizing the tuning of the aforementioned components.
  • One possibility is to adjust the inclination of the control surface 233 in a manner known per se by replacing a correspondingly shaped control spring 232 in such a way as to increase or reduce the trigger weight.
  • a further possibility to set the trigger weight is made possible by using trigger springs 5 of different strengths. This is relatively easy to do, especially with the present extraction device 2 .
  • the force required for lowering when firing the shot can be adjusted.
  • the local arrangement of the supporting extension 221 on the trigger rod 22 can make a contribution to the trigger weight.
  • the supporting extension 221 on the underside of the trigger rod 22 in the rear cranked section, but in front of the control extension 223 and in front of the actuating extension 222 is bent towards the center plane of the weapon. The closer the supporting extension 221 is to the rear at the height of the actuating extension 222, the steeper the inclination of the trigger spring 5 or a trigger spring guide 51 becomes in the installed situation, which increases the trigger weight. Compare this together 2 and 4 .
  • release angle 36 between the actuating section 332 and the bearing section 331 can be regarded as a further possibility of setting the trigger weight.
  • the release angle 36 is particularly preferably essentially 10°. If pawl holders 3 are now provided with different release angles 36, the user can adapt the trigger characteristics to his needs.
  • a particularly interesting possibility of influencing the trigger characteristics is the selection of a suitable trigger pawl 4 with a correspondingly shaped trigger surface 42.
  • the present trigger device 2 is suitable for being designed as a “pure” SA system.
  • the release latch 4 has a convex contour on its rear side, ie the release surface 42 .
  • the triggering surface 42 has a convex contour to the rear, which, viewed in the transverse direction in the rest position, is formed following a constant distance 47 from the mounting axis 31 . This is very good in Figure 8a evident from the dashed line, see comparative Figure 9a .
  • a triggering surface 42 with a convex shape which, when viewed in the transverse direction 92 and starting from the end facing the firing pin flag 152, follows a line which, at least in places, is not at a constant distance 47 from the mounting axis 31 follows.
  • the shape of the triggering surface 42 can increase--or also decrease--the distance to the mounting axis 31 relative to a constant radius or distance 47 in some sections.
  • the triggering surface 42 can also be designed as a flat surface, the contour essentially following a straight line in a side view. In this way, an additional expenditure of force or trigger weight is required due to the tensioning of the firing pin spring 153.
  • the release surface 42 can form a straight line, at least in places, as is shown in Figure 10a is shown schematically using the dot-dashed (in the illustration the left line) auxiliary line.
  • the constant distance 47 is off Figure 8a and 9a in Figure 10a shown.
  • the shape of the release surface 42 can thus be specifically adjusted by a person skilled in the art in order to influence the desired trigger characteristics.
  • a pawl detent 48 facing the firing pin flag 152 is formed here on the triggering surface 42 . From the side view in Figure 11a It can be seen that the pawl catch 48 is formed substantially in a normal upward direction 93, the height and exact angular position of which can of course be adjusted by those skilled in the art in light of the present disclosure.
  • the pawl catch 48 serves as a kind of projection on which the firing pin flag 152 briefly comes into flat contact with the pawl catch 48 when the release surface 42 slides downwards or backwards, resulting in a clearly noticeable increase in the trigger force and the shooter shows the immediate release of the shot as a pressure point.
  • Such a latch catch 48 can be provided in combination with a release latch for both SA and DA systems, as previously described.
  • Figure 11b 12 wherein a detail shows an enlarged exemplary illustration of the pawl detent 48 on the release surface 42.
  • FIG. A corresponding force-displacement curve is representative of an SA system with a pressure point as curve (c) in 12 shown schematically.
  • the trigger characteristics of the trigger device 2 can be optimized by adapting one or more components.
  • Representative at this point is the 12 referenced, in which force-displacement curves of a trigger device 2 with only a different shape of the release pawl 4 are shown roughly schematically.
  • the main contributions of the trigger weight are representatively limited to the aspects of the release pawl 4, whereby for the sake of brevity the influence of the previously mentioned options on the trigger characteristics, such as the angular position of the trigger spring, the release angle 36, etc., mutatis mutandis on the respective Contributions to the force-displacement curve are to be read without being described individually and in detail.
  • the release pawl 4 slides off the firing pin vane 152 as described above essentially homogeneously and without additionally prestressing the firing pin spring 153 . This is shown by the further, moderate increase in force of the second partial curve, curve (a) in 12 until the firing pin 151 is released. The release of the firing pin 151 is indicated by the abrupt drop in force.
  • a release pawl 4 in SA or DA design could have a pawl detent 48 which, when pulled off, is in addition to the aforementioned ones Force contributions can cause a clearly noticeable, abrupt increase in force.
  • This force-displacement curve is shown as an example in curve (c) in 12 shown, and representative of a trip latch 4 of 11 combined with an SA variant of the release pawl.
  • This abrupt increase in force corresponds essentially to a discontinuity of the triggering surface 42, as previously explained, and can be perceived as a "pressure point" (or "DP") in the illustration.
  • the trigger characteristic can now be adjusted in a relatively simple and easily reproducible manner by selecting the appropriate release pawl 4 .
  • a stop 341 can be formed on the underside of the pawl holder 3 in the rear end section 34, as is very evident Figure 8a is evident.
  • This stop 341 can, for example, be designed as a projection on the underside for the targeted limitation of the tilting movement of the release pawl 4 about the pawl axis 41 .
  • This allows the one-sided possible rotation of the release pawl 4 about the pawl axis 41 to be limited in a relatively simple manner, while the alternative use of additional springs or other locking elements on the pawl holder 3 or an internal projection on the control block 23 with the same effect would require greater manufacturing effort.
  • the release pawl 4 can preferably protrude laterally below the pawl axis 41 in the transverse direction 92 over the width of its receptacle in the pawl holder 3 .
  • This area of the abutment 43 can thus serve as a stop on the pawl holder 3 and limit the rotation of the release pawl 4 .
  • the pawl holder 3 has at least one bevel 342 on the inner surfaces of its rear end section 34 .
  • These bevels 342 are very good examples in Figures 7b and 7c visible on the inside of the bearing legs 28 and facilitate the removal, but in particular the insertion of the release pawl 4 from behind into the pawl holder 3.
  • Some further aspects of the present disclosure relate, for example, to an increase in the dynamic functional capability of the handgun 1, for example when a shot is fired more quickly. Accordingly, it can be advantageous if the actuating extension 222, as well figure 5 and particularly Figures 6b and 6c visible, is flat when viewed from above. In this way, a wide contact surface to the pawl holder 3 can be provided, in particular in the area of the bearing section 3 when the trigger device 2 is in the rest position, in order to form a fall arrester as described above.
  • the actuating extension 222 is extended in the transverse direction 92 beyond the pawl holder 3, as is shown in figure 5 and 6 is shown as an example using the cranked end of the actuating extension 222 .
  • the end section of the actuating extension 222 can thus engage in a control window 231 which is provided on the control block 23 .
  • a correspondingly stepped control window 231 as is known per se in GLOCK ® pistols in particular, fall protection can thus be implemented.
  • an inlet bevel 351 can be formed on at least one catch arm 35, as shown in Figure 7a pictured. This is tapered backwards from the end of the catch arm 35 to the front. As can easily be understood by a person skilled in the art, in this way the actuating extension 222 can reach the rest position more easily, which in turn can promote the dynamic functionality when the shot is fired quickly.
  • the invention is not limited to the exemplary embodiments shown and described, but can be modified and configured in various ways.
  • the cross-sectional shapes of the strips, rails, recesses, etc. mentioned can be adapted to the given basic data, and the lengths and positions with respect to the frame can also be easily adapted by a person skilled in the art with knowledge of the invention.
