Definitions

  • My invention relates generally automatic firearm and more; particularly to "that class of automatic firearms in which the barrellis adapted to slide lengthwise and 'a closing spring is ac commodated inthe neck of the stock,
  • the chief object of my invention isto provide a firing and safetymechanisrn in connection with a cartridge-delivering mechanism, which will be simple and compact in construction, efficient and i0 reliable in operation and practicalfrom both the stand-point of the manufacturer and the standpoint of the user.
  • a firing and safetymechanisrn in connection with a cartridge-delivering mechanism, which will be simple and compact in construction, efficient and i0 reliable in operation and practicalfrom both the stand-point of the manufacturer and the standpoint of the user.
  • the automatic guns for hunting and shooting purposes with a reciprocating barreliand rigid looking as hitherto known in the tra de are ohjectionable more-or less for the reasonthat thef firing and cartridge deliverylever mechanisin is actuated by meansof; fiat springs or doubleshanked bow-springs 1 which are very 'liable to fracture so that in case of fracture the guncannot beused and requires repair.
  • the trigger members co-operates withv the safety member. pushed rearwardly into safe position, the rear arm will be locked and consequently the trigger lwill also be locked against operation.
  • the provision of the improved hammer spring and safety mechanism involves the advantage of gaining sufficient room for the accommodation of a solid oscillating lever in lieu of the, locking the cartridge delivery lever in the-one (upper)- or the other (lower) of its two positions.
  • the trigger body 'Z is elongated at the rear
  • the safety slide 8 may be of conventional construction. I prefer, however, to form the same of two parts which when assembled to embrace the tang 1a of the casing 1, constitute a unit'adapted to be manually displaced on the tang a short way in bothdirections, as usually with safety devices of this class,
  • the lever '9 (is controlled by'a coiled spring 10 andit will be seen in Figure 2, that the leverfaces 10a and 1% are adapted to contact withthe corresponding faces of the short arm of the lever 11, that is to say, the face 10a will engage the one face all of the details of the construction the firearm'because they, will be self-suggesting to the man of the art and'experts in firearms of this type will be able to supply all such details T'in their correct design, proper in their size and A relationship, properly mounted and supported according to the tenets of firearm construction.
  • What-I claim is:' v Lina-firearm of the character referred to herein, the combination with a firing mechanism and a cartridge delivering member, 'of an indicating pin, a coiled spring wound about said pin, a bore in the, trigger guard for the reception of said pin and spring,- a hammer pivotally connected to said pin, a safety of the sliding type, and a trigger member adapted to immediately catch the hammer and hold the same in cocked position againstthe resistance of said spring, the rear end of the said trigger member being enlarged to form an arm for co-operation with the safety.
  • a trigger member adapted to immediately catch and'acartridge delivering member, an indicating pin, a coiled spring wound about said pin, a bore'in the trigger guard for the accommodation of the said pin and spring,-a hammer pivotally attached to said pin, a spring-controlled lever adapted to lock the said cartridge delivering member in one or theother of two positions, and a trailing arm for cooperation with the said spring-controlled lever.
