  • the gun and the manipulating piece I) can be coupled with one another during the pointing motions whereupon after the gun has been set to the desired firing direction the piece I) is given a position enabling convenient and close grasping of the handles 6 6 during firing by temporarily releasing the described locking device.
  • the breech end a carries two lateral hollow extensions a extending in parallel to the axis of the horizontal trunnions on which extensions the two pointing handles 6 12 are arranged rotatably and are secured against being jVltllCllflWIl from the extensions in any suitable manner.
