Weapon with cartridge-case ejection

A firearm with cartridge-case ejection, comprising:

• a barrel with a barrel axis;
• a bolt carrier that can be moved parallel to the barrel axis;
• a functional edge that is coupled to the firearm rearward of the bolt carrier in a direction of the barrel axis;
• the bolt carrier including:
• a bolt that, when in a ready-to-fire position, and in combination with the barrel, forms a cartridge chamber;
• an ejector having a rear end that protrudes beyond the bolt carrier, where the ejector can be moved in the bolt parallel to the barrel axis between an ejector rest position in which a front end of the ejector does not protrude beyond a breech face and an ejector ejection position in which the front end of the ejector protrudes beyond the breech face;
• an ejector spring that urges the ejector into the ejector rest position;
• and
• an ejector lever that is arranged on the bolt carrier so that it can rotate about an ejector lever pivot axis between an ejector lever rest position and an ejector lever ejection position, the ejector lever including:
• a leg disposed in a path of a relative movement of the functional edge when the ejector lever is in the ejector lever rest position;
• and
• an ejector surface that, when the ejector lever is rotated from the ejector lever rest position to the ejector lever ejection position, contacts an impact surface of the ejector and pushes it into the ejector ejection position;
• wherein the firearm is configured so that the functional edge urges the ejector into the ejector ejection position when the bolt carrier moves rearward after a shot has been fired.
