Safety device for a autoloading or automatic pistol

Abstract

A safety device for a automatic pistol, which safety device for a pistol is comprised of a safety pin (1) housed in a recessed hole (16) of the slide (15), which safety pin can assume a first position in which the gun is unlocked, and a second position in which the gun is locked, composed of a cylindrical head (2) provided with a notch (9) made according to a chord of the respective circumference externally bounded by a convex surface (3) in the central part of which there is a hole (4) from the head (2) of which a cylindrical body (5) provided with a helical groove (6) adjacent the head (2) projects inwardly, two positioning slots (7) and a flat recess (8) parallel to the axis thereof that extends from practically half of its length as far as its end opposite the head (2). When said safety pin is switched to “locked” position, the head (2) thereof projects from the side surface of the slide (15), the ball-spring assembly (12, 13) cooperates with another positioning slot (7), said flat recess (8) is in a vertical position perpendicular to the axis of the firing pin (28), thus interfering with the lower notch (29) of said firing pin (the (28), and said notch (9) of the head (2) of the safety pin (1) is perpendicular to-the guide (26) of the frame (31), and said head (2) starts interfering with the housing (24) resulting from the concave faces of the boss (23) and the notch (25) of the guide (26), thus preventing the gun to be triggered.
