Abstract
A pistol with a trigger spring which assists the trigger movement counter to the force of a restoring spring and acts at one end on the trigger slide and at the other end directly or indirectly on the housing of the pistol. In order further to improve the trigger spring, it is provided that said trigger spring is a helical spring which is loaded in compression and the interior of which contains a guide pin which, in the region of one of the ends thereof, has a transverse bolt with which said guide pin rests in a groove fixed on the housing, and which, in the region of the other end thereof, holds a first end region of a hook in a movably mounted manner, the second end region of which hook is of U-shaped design, and in that part of the trigger slide is mounted in said U-shaped end.
Claims2
A pistol, comprising:
- a pistol housing;
- a trigger slide disposed in the pistol housing and coupled to a trigger;
- a trigger spring having a first end and a second end;
- wherein the trigger spring is a helical spring that is loaded in compression;
- a guide pin disposed in an interior of the trigger spring;
- wherein
- in a region of the first end of the trigger spring the guide pin includes a transverse bolt that rests in a groove fixed on the pistol housing;
- in a region of the second end of the trigger spring the guide pin holds a first end of a hook in a movably mounted manner, where the region of the second end of the hook includes a U-shaped design having a part of the trigger slide mounted therein;
- wherein the first end of the trigger spring acts directly or indirectly on the pistol housing via the transverse bolt and the second end of the trigger spring acts upon one end of the trigger slide via the U-shaped design of the hook, such that the trigger spring is configured to assist a trigger movement counter to a force applied by a restoring spring.
