Tactical device

A tactical device comprising:

• a. a barrel comprising, a first end, a second end having an opening formed therein, a first through hole that extends from the first end to the second end, a first outer diameter, and a first inner diameter that defines the through hole;
• b. a barrel housing comprising a first end, a second end, and a second through hole that extends from the first end to the second end, wherein the second through hole has a second inner diameter that is larger than the first outer diameter of the barrel, wherein the barrel second end is configured to be inserted into the barrel housing first end and the barrel is axially moveable with respect to the barrel housing when the barrel second end is inserted into the barrel housing first end;
• c. a firing pin mounted in the second through hole of the barrel housing proximate to the barrel housing second end, the firing pin having a protrusion that extends toward the barrel housing first end;
• d. a safety mechanism comprising a safety recess formed in an outer circumferential surface of the barrel housing, an opening at a base of the safety recess that opens into the second through hole, and a safety comprising:
• i. a safety disc,
• ii. a first stud extending from the safety disc,
• iii. a second stud extending from the safety disc, and
• iv. a spring;
• and
• e. a safety cap moveably coupled to the second end of the barrel housing and moveable between a first safety off position and a second safety on position, wherein the safety cap comprises:
• i. a first end defining an opening therein,
• ii. a second end,
• iii. an inner circumferential surface that defines a sidewall of a blind bore that extends toward the second end from the opening;
• iv. a first flat surface formed in the inner circumferential surface of the safety cap that is formed at a first radial distance from a central axis that extends between the first end and the second end of the safety cap, and
• v. a second flat surface formed in the inner circumferential surface of the safety cap that is formed at a second radial distance from the central axis that is larger than the first radial distance,
• wherein:
• the safety is received in the safety recess such that the second stud passes through the opening at the base of the safety recess,
• the spring is positioned intermediate the safety disc and the safety recess such that the spring biases the safety disc radially outward of the safety recess,
• the barrel is moveable with respect to the barrel housing between:
• a first position in which the opening in the second end of the barrel is spaced apart from the protrusion on the firing pin, and
• a second firing position in which the barrel is moved axially with respect to the barrel housing such that the firing pin protrusion extends through the opening in the second end of the barrel,
• the safety cap is moveable between:
• a safety on first position in which the first flat surface engages with the first stud thereby pushing the safety radially inward such that the second stud is moved into the second through hole in the barrel housing thereby preventing the barrel from moving from the first position into the firing second position, and
• a second safety off position in which the second flat surface engages with the first stud thereby allowing the spring to bias the safety disc radially outward with respect to the safety recess so that the second stud exits the second through hole thereby allowing the barrel to move into the second firing position.
