Abstract
A gun comprising a frame, a barrel, and a slide. The barrel and the slide being slidably mounted to one another and to the frame for movement between a retracted position and an extended position; the barrel having a bore and having a gas port communicating with the bore for allowing gas to pass from the bore when the gun is fired; the gun having a chamber communicating with the gas port when the barrel and slide are in the retracted position and for receiving gas from the gas port when the gun is fired to cause the barrel and the slide to move from the retracted position to the extended position in a direction opposite the recoil of the gun when the gun is fired.
Claims8
A gun comprising a frame, a barrel, and a slide;
- said barrel and said slide being slidably mounted to one another and to said frame for movement between a retracted position and an extended position;
- said barrel having a bore and having gas port means communicating with said bore for allowing gas to pass from said bore when said gun is fired;
- said gun having chamber means communicating with said gas port means when said barrel and said slides are in said retracted position and for receiving gas from said gas port means when said gun is fired to cause said barrel and said slide to move from said retracted position to said extended position in a direction opposite the recoil of said gun when said gun is fired, said gun including means for rotating said barrel about its longitudinal axis after said gun is fired.
A gun comprising:
- a) a frame;
- said frame having a breech portion;
- b) a barrel;
- said barrel having a bore and having gas port means communicating with said bore for allowing gas to pass from said bore when said gun is fired;
- said barrel having a first end and a second end;
- c) a slide;
- said barrel and said slide being slidably mounted to one another and to said frame for movement between a retracted position and an extended position;
- d) chamber means communicating with said gas port means when said barrel and said slide are in said retracted position and for receiving gas from said gas port means when said gun is fired to cause said barrel and said slide to move from said retracted position to said extended position in a direction opposite the recoil of said gun when said gun is fired;
- e) lock means for locking said first end of said barrel to said breech portion of said frame when said barrel is in said retracted position;
- and
- f) cam means for rotating said barrel about its longitudinal axis when said slide moves between said retracted and extended positions, said lock means locking said barrel to said breech portion of said frame when said barrel is in said retracted position and rotated about its longitudinal axis in a first direction and unlocking said barrel from said breech portion of said frame when said barrel is in said retracted position and rotated about its longitudinal axis in a second direction.
A gun comprising:
- a) a frame;
- b) a barrel;
- said barrel having a bore and having gas port means communicating with said bore for allowing gas to pass from said bore when said gun is fired;
- c) a slide;
- said barrel and said slide being slidably mounted to one another and to said frame for movement between a retracted position and an extended position;
- d) chamber means communicating with said gas port means when said barrel and said slide are in said retracted position and for receiving gas from said gas port means when said gun is fired to cause said barrel and said slide to move from said retracted position to said extended position in a direction opposite the recoil of said gun when said gun is fired;
- and
- e) means for rotating said barrel about its longitudinal axis when said slide moves between said retracted and extended portions.
