  • the left side sleeve 10 thus functions as a post-impact mass which prevents that the control element 3 will recoil such an extent that the blocking bolts 15 are no longer controlled.
  • the rotating catch element 29 impacts against the surface 27 of the breechblock housing I, whereupon it is moved back again towards the starting position by the spring 34.
  • the catch element 29 reaches the starting position after the front end of the sleeve 10, which moves towards the rear under the driving force of a non-illustrated plunger, has passed the position depicted in FIG. 6.
  • valve 80 For the purpose of securing the firing weapon against unintentional firing of a shot during a disturbance the valve 80 is adjusted by means of the switching or control lever 81, so that the annular compartment 82 of the cylinder is flow connected with the conduit 84 and the piston 68 together with the coupling element 70 and the bifurcated member 73 are moved towards the left (viewed in the showing of FIG. 7). Consequently, both of the levers 61 are rocked about the pins or axles 62 and the U-shaped rail 65 is raised. This rail 65 then comes into contact with the blocking lever 39 and pivots such about the pin or axle 40. The blocking lever 39 which acts upon the surface 50 of the bolt 49 presses such against the pressure of the spring 53 towards the outside, out of the groove 24.
  • the catch element 29 is also engaged from behind and in the event that such has previously entered the groove 24 such is moved out of the groove 24 into the position of FIG. 6 due to travel onto the surface 38.
  • the breechblock head 2 of the breechblock moving towards the firing position reaches its forwardmost position and afterwards the surface 18 of the left side sleeve 10 impacts against the surface 37 of the catch lever 29.
  • the control element 3 moves faster towards the front together with the right side sleeve 10, until the surface 87 of the coupling element 7 impacts against the dog or cam 9 of the left sleeve 10 which previously has been stopped by the lever 29 and thus the control element 3 is caught in a position in which the tip of the firing pin 4 is still located behind the base of the shell or cartridge 89 which has been introduced into the cartridge chamber.
  • the right side sleeve 10 its surface 18, which has been shown in phantom lines in FIG. 6, is located directly behind the bevelled surface 54 of the bolt 49. Upon rupture of the catch lever 29 the catch bolt 49 can thus catch the control element 3 and prevent that the shell 89 in the cartridge chamber will be fired.
