Description

The invention relates to a combined (transformable) weapon, forming a combat complex and including, as its main modules, firearms (small arms), mainly a serial pistol, and the original cold steel - pricking and / or cutting. The main potential user is special forces of power structures.

Numerous projects are widely known, including patented developments, combining into a single complex (combination) of handguns (including pistols) and cold bladed weapons. The scope of use of combined weapons is special operations (reconnaissance, sabotage, terrorist acts) [1-3].

The most common combination is a rifle or carbine with a bayonet-knife, which is used, depending on the situation, either as a knife or as a bayonet, attaching it with a handle in the area of the cut of the barrel, and with the orientation of the blade parallel to the axis of the barrel. Special forces soldiers are usually armed with a pistol or submachine gun complete with a knife [2, P.310].

Of particular interest are the so-called shooting blades [2, S.275-292].

From the point of view of the claimed invention, it is appropriate to note that the automatic pistol CZ-75FA (Czechoslovakia) has a tide with grooves in the front of the frame at the bottom, on which you can fasten the cover with a spare magazine in order to use it as a second front retention handle [2, P.336 ], and the Elf submachine gun (Ukraine) in the front of the receiver has a second, front 90 ° swivel handle (a “second neck") with a slot in which a spare magazine is inserted, which is considered by experts to be an obvious convenience - stock oh store is always at hand [3 S.180-181].

A close analogue of the claimed device is a modular complex of cold-steel firearms containing a hollow-grip firearm, mainly a pistol with a slot for a box-shaped cartridge magazine (the first module of the complex), a main and a spare box-shaped cartridge magazines, each with a neck of the case, a bottom or a cover in it the base, the feeder and the ejection spring (respectively, the second and third modules of the complex), as well as the main part of cold steel in the form of a stabbing and / or cutting type blade carpal limiter (crosspiece) from its end face (fourth module of the complex), a case for spare magazine or temporary accommodation main store (fifth module complex) for the blade and sheath (sixth complex modulus) [4].

It used a small-sized self-loading Browning pistol as a firearm, and a saber as a cold stabbing and cutting weapon (respectively, this weapon complex, proposed in 1915 by D.I. Nakvasin and V.I. Lysenko, was called "saber" -pistol "and assigned to a series of projects of" combined "(" masked ") weapons of the early XX century). At the same time, the gun, along with the magazine in the standard slot (in the handle of the gun) is integrated into the hilt of the checker so that the barrel and bolt-guard are placed in the cross, and the trigger and magazine for 12-14 rounds are in the handle of the checker. In other words, there is a sequential spatial arrangement (layout) of the blade, the crosspiece with the barrel and receiver of the pistol and magazine built into it in the handle of the gun, covered in turn by the handle of the cold steel.

For all its originality, the device and, above all, the layout of the modules (complex) identified its shortcomings.

The design of the carpal restraint (cross) with this arrangement, of course, does not provide for the possibility of its (her) installation on the store (on either side of the latter, including the base of the store). Accordingly, the fundamental possibility of two- and multifunctionality of the cartridge magazine, i.e. use it additionally for another purpose (with the concept of "checker-gun" there is no need for this at all). The hand restraints of the cold and firearms remain single-functional (each gun has its own hand restraint - accordingly, the crosspiece of the hilt hilt and the pistol magazine cover developed by the “fingertip spur”). The complex does not allow various combinations of its listed modules, including the relationship with the sequential spatial arrangement of the receiver of a firearm, a magazine, wrist restraint and a blade of cold steel. Moreover, it should be noted that modern armies of the main states and various other power structures, as a rule, are not armed with long-bladed edged weapons such as drafts, sabers, swords and swords. A pistol, especially a small one, being built into a non-transformable long-sized cold weapon, loses one of its main advantages - the possibility of compact carrying (in a pocket, bag, holster, etc.) and ease of use in cramped conditions in offline mode. And its removal as a module from the hilt requires a relatively long dismantling of the complex and therefore is practically not realistic in the operational environment of the battle.

At the same time, the currently used short-sized edged weapon (bayonet-knives and knives), usually included in the armament complex of a modern soldier, especially as part of special units of army and other power structures, is technically not suitable for operational combination with a pistol. The adjoining of bayonet-knives to relatively long-sized small arms (rifles, machine guns, submachine guns) in the under-barrel version with the blade stabbing them parallel to the axis of the barrel does not at all mean the possibility and expediency of using such a layout scheme for the modules in combination with a gun.

In addition, pistols and submachine guns (which have received the most rapid development in recent decades) are completely or partially deprived of such important, for special operations, opportunities as:

- fixation on the soil surface without direct contact with it (prevention of loss in vegetation, on a slope, etc. conditions and, at the same time, prevention of excessive pollution, ie "hygienic" fixation, as well as shooting with the support on the opener in lying down or from the edge of a trench or trench);

- fixation on the trunk or a thick branch of the tree (again, to prevent loss, and shooting with the opener on the parapet of the trench).

In all of the above examples of combined cold-hot weapons, as well as in the vast majority of small arms in general, cartridge stores are used only for their intended purpose - to place cartridges on the approaches to the chamber and for their automatic sequential supply to it.

The closest analogue of the claimed device, i.e. coinciding with the purpose and general essential features, is the use of a cartridge magazine for a submachine gun for a different purpose, previously discovered by the author in the literary and informational massif, namely, as a removable stock for this submachine gun. However, the repeated search for a source of information about this well-known technical solution was unsuccessful.

Therefore, as a prototype, the use of an unloaded or equipped box-shaped cartridge magazine for small arms as a cartridge magazine, i.e. for its intended purpose [4].

The criticism of the prototype in this situation should include the disadvantages of analogues as single-function devices, leaving, therefore, reserves for expanding the functional purpose.

The task to which the invention is directed is to expand the functional purpose of box-shaped cartridge stores, which means expanding the tactical and technical capabilities of small-arms store and weapon systems, adapting to modern doctrines and tactics of close combat with the integrated use of small and hand cold weapons.

The solution to this problem is achieved by the fact that unloaded or equipped cartridge box magazine for small arms is used (used) as a handle.

In order to solve the problem, the claimed device can be characterized by the following sets of additional design features (with the above main set of features):

- the use of the store as a handle of cold steel, in particular a bayonet-knife or bayonet;

- the use of the store as a handle of a cutlery;

- the use of the store (with the previous set of features) as the handle of a spoon or fork;

- the use of the store as a tool handle, in particular a screwdriver.

This can be reflected in the following set of basic design features of the respective devices:

- in a modular complex of cold-steel firearms containing hollow-handed firearms, mainly a pistol with a socket for a box-shaped cartridge magazine, which is the first module of the complex, the main and at least one spare box-shaped cartridge magazines, each with a neck of the case, bottom or a cover at its base, a feeder and an ejection spring, which are, respectively, the second and third modules of the complex, as well as the main part of cold steel in the form of a piercing and / or cutting blade with an ardent limiter on the side of its end, forming the fourth module of the complex, a case for a spare store or temporary placement of the main store, and a sheath for the blade, which are the fifth and sixth modules of the complex, respectively, the hand limiter of cold steel is rigidly connected to the end of the blade or is made in one piece him with the possibility of its rigid removable installation on the store at its base by replacing the cover or by fixed installation with landing on the bottom or cover and the possibility, therefore, to use use of the cartridge magazine additionally for a new purpose - as a cold steel handle, as well as the functional combination of wrist guards for firearms and cold weapons, while the device of the complex allows various combinations of the above modules, including the relationship with the sequential spatial arrangement of the receiver of the firearm, magazine, carpal limiter and blade of cold steel.

And also in the following set of additional design features of the respective devices:

- the wrist stop on the opposite side of the blade and the magazine cover can be made identical, at least in design and geometric dimensions, with the possibility of quick selective installation-dismantling either at the base of the store or at the end of the blade;

- with the main or the first of the indicated additional sets of features of the device, the blade can be made with a threaded shank and connected to the hand stop of the cold weapon by means of the hole provided in the hand stop and the nut, while the length of the shank and the maximum width of the nut do not exceed, respectively, the height and the minimum transverse size of the free space limited by the bottom, the buoyant spring and the feeder in its lowest position when introduced into the neck of the last single cartridge with full standard equipment;

- with the previous set of features, the carpal restraint can be provided with an outstanding part with a shape and dimensions in cross section corresponding to the shape and dimensions of the inner surface of the store’s case at its base, with the possibility of their telescopic clearance-free mating on a sliding fit;

- in the main or the first of these additional sets of features of the device, it may additionally contain a set of interchangeable stitching and / or cutting elements, a spoon, a fork, a screwdriver and / or other tools and devices for the said limiter or with individual limiters of the mentioned design, while the listed replaceable the products are the seventh and subsequent in the calculation order modules of the complex, and it may be possible to use the cartridge magazine additionally for a new purpose - as the handle of a spoon, fork, screwdriver and / or other tools and devices;

- with the previous set of features, the seventh and subsequent, in the calculation order, modules of the complex can be performed with devices connecting to the store equally with the fourth module;

- with the main set of features of the device, the store and blade can be made proportionate in length, and the casing and scabbard can be interchangeable and / or identical;

- in the second of the sets of additional features listed above, the store and blade can be made proportionate in length, and the case and scabbard can be interchangeable and / or identical.

Among the known devices were not found those whose combination of essential features would coincide with the declared one. At the same time, it is due to it that a new tactical and technical result is achieved in accordance with the task.

The claimed use of the store for a new purpose (with examples of specific embodiments in the constructs) is explained in the drawings:

In Fig. 1, the following position designations are introduced (they are also the numbers of modules in the complex):

1 - small arms (gun); 2 and 3 - main and spare cartridge magazines of small arms; 4 - the main part of knives; 5 - case (casing) for a spare store; 6 - sheath for edged weapons (blade, interchangeable blades); 7 - a spoon; 8 - fork; 9 - a screwdriver.

Consider an example of a device (with options for the private execution of its components), which is original in connection with the originality of the use of the store for a new purpose presented as an invention. The description of his work as a sequence of operations serves as an illustrated example of the claimed complex and at the same time the method of its combat use.

The modular complex of firearms contains the above-mentioned main modules 1-9 (see figure 1).

Firearms (small arms), mainly pistols 1, for example PSM (or submachine guns), are made with a handle 10, in the cavity of which a socket 11 is provided, with a spring clip 12 for a box-shaped cartridge magazine - the main 2 or spare (spare) 3.

Each store 2, 3 includes a housing 13 with its neck 14, a bottom or a cover 15 at its base, a feeder 16 and an eject spring 17, as well as a mating part 18 of the latch 12.

The main part 4 of cold steel is made in the form of a replaceable blade 19 piercing (mainly) and / or cutting type with wrist restraint (cross) 20 from the side of its end.

The case (casing) 5 for the spare magazine 3 (or the main magazine 2, if it is necessary to temporarily place it outside the weapon 1) is made two-functional in accordance with the traditional requirements for cartridge cases (quick-open and fastened, for example, on the belt) and (as a new element ) ergonomically comfortable to reach with a hand (in conjunction with a cartridge magazine) in accordance with the traditional requirements for casings of knife handles and bayonet-knives. Accordingly, a relief for the fingers of a hand characteristic of the handles of a cold weapon may be provided on its outer surface.

The sheath 6 for the blade 19 (and cold steel as a whole) in the simplest (usual) version does not fundamentally differ from the known ones and does not need a description. However, a variant can be recommended (as a new element) when the magazine 3 (2) and the blade 19 are made proportional (equal) in length, and then it is advisable to make a case (casing) 5 and a sheath 6 interchangeably and / or identical, i.e. similar and / or identical. In particular, in the form of one tri-functional (taking into account the above-mentioned two-functionality) device.

The wrist stop (cross) 20, according to its first constructive version (see Figs. 1-3, 7, 8), is made as a unit with the blade 19, i.e. inseparable from him. The main thing in this technical proposal is that such a limiter 20 is made with the possibility of its rigid removable installation (of course, together with the blade 19) on the magazine 3 or 2 at its base by means of a fixed installation with landing on the bottom or cover 15 (see figure 2 ) A sub-variant with screw fastening (flush) of the limiter 20 at the end face of the blade 19 (not shown) is allowed.

The wrist restraint (cross) 20, according to its second constructive variant (see Figs. 1-3, 7, 8), is made rigidly connected to the end face of the blade 19, and with the possibility of its rigid removable installation on the store 3 (2) at its base , by replacing the cover 15 or by a fixed installation with a landing on the bottom or cover 15 (see figure 3).

In particular, the blade 19 can be made (see FIGS. 4, 5) with a threaded shank 21 and connected to the limiter 20 by means of the hole 22 provided in the latter, nuts 23 and, if necessary, a wedge washer 24, while the length of the shank 21 and the maximum width of the nut 23 (mainly rectangular in cross section) does not exceed, respectively, the height h and the minimum transverse size of the free space bounded by the bottom 15, the eject spring 17 and the feed (“head” of the feed) 16 in its lowermost positionwhen introducing into the neck 14 of the last cartridge with full standard equipment.

Since the version with the shank 21 and the nut 23 does not allow assembly of the blade by the “factory” in front or behind the guides, a device consisting of two halves (25 and 26) with side clamps 27, 28 can be provided (more obvious from figure 4 , 5).

The limiter 20 may be provided with a prominent part (not shown) with the shape and dimensions in cross section corresponding to the shape and dimensions of the inner surface of the store casing 13 at its base, with the possibility of telescopic clearance-free pairing on a sliding fit.

Obviously, in all these options, the limiter 20 is made with the possibility, therefore, of the use (use) of magazines 3 or 2 additionally for a new purpose - as a handle of cold steel 4, as well as functional (and / or constructive in one part 20) combination of hand limiters for firearm 1 and cold weapon 4.

For reasons of strength and rigidity of the modular modular design, it is recommended, in particular, that the limiter 20 be made of metal.

It is preferable that the limiter 20 and the cover 15 are made identical and / or identical, at least in design and geometric dimensions, with the possibility of quick selective installation-dismantling either at the base of the magazine 3 (2) or at the end of the blade 19. The limiter in the said PSM pistol , for example, is made sufficiently developed (under the little finger) for use as a cold weapon limiter - either under the little finger, or under the index and thumb, depending on how the handle is gripped.

The inventive complex may further comprise a set of interchangeable stitching and / or cutting elements 4 (with various sizes of the blade 19), a spoon 7, a plug 8, a screwdriver 9 and / or other tools and devices for the stop 20 or with individual stops of the above-mentioned design (see Fig. .one). In this case, it may again be possible to use (use) the store 3 (2) as a handle, respectively, of a spoon 7, fork 8, screwdriver 9 and / or other tools and devices.

Modules 7, 8, 9 and possible subsequent ones, in calculating order, can be made with devices for connecting to magazine 3 (2) in the same way with module 4.

Thus, the device of the complex allows various combinations of modules 1-9, including the relationship with the sequential spatial arrangement of the receiver of a firearm 1, a magazine 2 (3), a wrist restraint 20 and a blade 19 of cold steel 4.

In principle, other variants of a specific structural embodiment of the device are possible within the framework of the main and additional sets of structural features (see above).

The device operates as follows (combat use of the complex).

The traditional use of the complex involves the separate use of small arms 1 and cold weapons 4. In this case, the latter is preliminarily promptly assembled from modules 3 and 19 and, when applied with a brush, hands are held by the cartridge magazine 3 with coverage of its housing and an emphasis on the limiter 20. The magazine 3 used as a handle of cold steel 4, indirectly - through the case (casing) 5 mounted on the store 3, in particular the sheath 6.

For close, in particular hand-to-hand combat, cold steel in the form described above assembled from modules 4 and 3 (2) (without a case-case 5 and scabbard 6, of course) is inserted into a regular magazine slot 11 in the handle 10 of small arms 1 (see, for example, FIG. 2) or in a magazine slot separate from the handle 10, depending on the design, and fixed by means of parts 12, 18 of the standard retainer available for any magazine small arms. The complex acquires the combat properties of small arms (4) with a bayonet (19), but with a lateral orientation of the latter relative to the axis of the barrel of small arms 4 and, at the same time, with the “knife” position of the blade 19 relative to the hand covering the handle knife indirectly through the handle of the gun (see Fig.6, fighter 29 to the left) or a new unusual position between two hands covering small arms such as a submachine gun or machine gun, to the left and right of the blade 19 (see Fig.6, fighter 29 to the right )

It is important that when the bayonet 4 (19) is used and the magazine 3 or 2 equipped with cartridges is used as its handle, the possibility of firing weapons 1 remains.

Especially convenient is the use of a bayonet gun during special operations due to its high compactness, the ability to use with one hand and a variety of enemy defeat schemes: “forward shot, down-back strike”; “Forward shot, hit to the right”; “Forward shot, right-back strike”, etc.

It should also be noted that the device (and hence the use of the store for the new declared purpose) expands the possibilities and schemes of the Ukrainian Elf submachine gun mentioned in the overview: the hinged front handle with a slot for a spare magazine “automatically” becomes a bayonet-knife holder with handle-magazine, while the bayonet-knife acquires the usual orientation for bayonets along the axis of the barrel.

Moreover, fundamentally new options appear that are of particular practical importance for scouts, saboteurs, and other special forces soldiers (see Figs. 7, 8):

- “gun claw - G” (see Fig. 7), when the gun or submachine gun 1 can be fixed on the surface of the soil 30 by sticking with a blade 4 (preventing loss in vegetation, on a slope, etc. conditions and, at the same time, prevention of excessive pollution, ie “hygienic” fixation, as well as an analogue of the opener device when shooting lying down or from the edge of a trench or trench);

- “claw of the gun - D” (see Fig. 8), when the gun 1 can be fixed on the trunk or a thick branch of the tree 31 (again to prevent loss and as an opener on the parapet of the trench).

Modules 7-9 and later use, as a rule, separately from module 1, in their free time from hostilities (if the user remains alive).

The application of the invention allows to expand the functional purpose of box-shaped cartridge stores, which means to expand the tactical and technical capabilities of small-arms store and weapon systems, adapt them to modern doctrines and tactics of close combat with the integrated use of small and hand cold weapons.
