PATENT OEEICE.
THOMAS LEE, 0E WEsTPoET, CONNECTICUT.
IMPROVEMENT IN R-TRACT'ORS FOR REVOLVING FIRE-ARMS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 122,182, dated December 26, 1871.
To all whom 'it may concern: Y
Be it known that I, THOMAS LEE, of the'town of Westport, in the county oi' Faireld and State of Connecticut, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in the Construction of Fire- Arms, of which the following is a speciiication:
My invention relates to the peculiar manner in Which the retractor which draws the empty shell is attached to and worked by the hammer of the lock of a pistol o r other fire-arm. The object of my invention is to Withdraw the empty shell from such pistol or other tire-arm after it is discharged. I
The drawing accompanying this specification is a sectional view of what is generally termed a navy pistol, showing the attachment of a curved tubular Chamber or magazine, containing Within the same a spiral spring, to a pistol or other firearm having a revolving cylindrical breech.
A is a curved tubular chamber or magazine, containing Within the same a spiral spring, B, which, when elongated, is of equal length with' said curved tubular chamber or magazine. This tubular chamber or maga-zine is attached to the barrel of the pistol or other re-arm, and extends from the extreme end thereof, and runs along under the same, and curves around to the butt end of the stock or handle, and then continues up to the entrance of the cylinder of the revolving breech G.
The retractor a slides in the slot 1),' caused by a stud, c, Workin g in the double slots of the vertical vibratingarm or plate d. is attached to the stock by a pivot, c, and has an angular slot at the lower end for the stud f to Work in tor give a vertical and horizontal or eccentric movement to the same, caused by the action of the hammer, to Which the studf is attached.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The retracting-bar a, stud c, double-slotted vibrating-arm d, stud f, and hammer, combined for operation as set forth.
Westport, Conn., April 4, 1871.
