Abstract
A firearm (10), in particular a repeating shotgun, comprises a stock (11), a barrel (30) which is supported in axially displaceable manner relative to said stock (11) at or in a linear guide (20), a cartridge seat (31) to receive a cartridge (P) being configured in said barrel (30), further a closing system (40) fitted with a closing head (41) to close the cartridge seat (31), said closing head (41) being axially affixable in place in the barrel end (32, 33) when the firearm (10) is being closed and being traversed centrally to the barrel axis (A) by a striker pin (18), and a locking system (80) to lock the firearm (10) in its closed position. The closing system (40) is substantially configured axially symmetrically and/or rotationally symmetrically to the barrel axis (A).
Claims25
A firearm (10) comprising
- a stock (11),
- a barrel (30), having a barrel end 32, 33 and being axially displaceable relative to said stock and supported at or in a linear guide (20),
- a cartridge seat (31) being configured in said barrel to receive a cartridge (P),
- a closing system (40) fitted with a closing head (41) to close the cartridge seat (31) configured in the barrel, said closing head (41) being axially affixable in the barrel end (32, 33) when the firearm (10) is being closed,
- a striker pin, the closing head 41 being traversed by the striker pin (18) centrally to the barrel axis (A),
- a locking system (80) to lock the firearm (10) in its closed position;
- wherein the closing system (40) is substantially axially symmetrical and/or rotationally symmetrical relative to the barrel axis (A), and
- wherein said closing system (40) further comprises:
- radial or radially acting closing members (60) to affix the closing head (41) in place, said closing members (60) engaging corresponding closing elements (65) in the barrel end (32, 33) when the barrel (30) is longitudinally displaced,
- wherein the closing head (41) is supported in axially displaceable and/or rotatable manner at a support (50) which is coaxial with the barrel axis (A), the support (50) being stationary at or in a housing (90) solidly joined to the stock (11) and the locking system (80) comprises radial and/or radially acting detent or locking elements (81) which may be made to engage the closing head (41) and/or the support (50) when the firearm (10) is being closed.
A firearm (10), in particular a single shot or a multishot, repeating gun, comprising
- a stock (11),
- a barrel (30), having a barrel end 32, 33 and being axially displaceable relative to said stock and supported at or in a linear guide (20),
- a cartridge seat (31) being configured in said barrel to receive a cartridge (P),
- a closing system (40) fitted with a closing head (41) to close the cartridge seat (31) configured in the barrel, said closing head (41) being axially affixable in the barrel end (32, 33) when the firearm (10) is being closed,
- a striker pin, the closing head 41 being traversed by the striker pin (18) centrally to the barrel axis (A),
- a locking system (80) to lock the firearm (10) in its closed position;
- wherein the closing system (40) is substantially axially symmetrical and/or rotationally symmetrical relative to the barrel axis (A), and
- wherein said closing system (40) further comprises:
- radial or radially acting closing members (60) to affix the closing head (41) in place, said closing members (60) engaging corresponding closing elements (65) in the barrel end (32, 33) when the barrel (30) is longitudinally displaced,
- wherein the closing head (41) is supported in axially displaceable and/or rotatable manner at a support (50) which is coaxial with the barrel axis (A), the support (50) being stationary at or in a housing (90) solidly joined to the stock (11) and a closing bush (33) is fitted at its end face with an impact surface (38) which comes to rest in geometrically locking manner against a corresponding stop surface (94) in the housing (90) when the barrel (30) is in the closed position, said impact surface (38) and stop surface (94) being substantially concentric with the barrel axis (A).
