The invention pertains to a trigger mechanism for handguns, particularly pistols, with a striking lever (), a first striking spring () that is assigned to the striking lever () and serves for acting upon the striking lever () in the firing direction, a trigger () and a trigger rod () that is connected to the trigger () and releases the striking lever () in a tensioned position in order to fire a shot. In order to generate a constant firing energy with variable trigger resistances and trigger paths, the striking lever () is acted upon in the firing direction by a second striking spring () that is arranged parallel to the first striking spring ().

Trigger mechanism for handguns

The invention concerns a pistol with a housing (), breech part () movable relative to housing (), a barrel () arranged within breech part () and a trigger system (). The housing () according to the invention contains a receiver () and an upper housing part () designed in one part with it, which encloses the breech part () with the barrel () arranged in it.

Pistol

A handgun, particularly an automatic pistol, with a grip piece, a breech that can be longitudinally displaced relative to the grip piece, and a breechblock mechanism that can be actuated on both sides and serves for holding the breech in its open position. The breechblock mechanism has a breechblock lever that is realized in the form of a one-piece punched and bent part and has two lateral parts that are integrally connected to one another by a crosspiece, as well as operating parts that are integrally connected to the respective lateral parts.

Handgun with two-sided breechblock mechanism

A safety for a hand firearm with a firing lever, a firing pin, a safety element allocated to the firing pin, a trigger rod that can be activated by a trigger, and a transmission element, which is coupled to the trigger rod and through which the safety element can be moved from a safety position for blocking the firing pin into a released position for releasing the firing pin. To guarantee a high degree of safety against undesired firing of a shot even for a small trigger path and low trigger weight, the transmission element contains a control element, through which the transmission element can be activated in a predetermined trigger position of the trigger by means of the firing lever for moving the safety element into the released position.

Safety for a hand firearm

A trigger mechanism for small firearms with a striking hammer, a trigger, and a trigger rail, which interacts with the trigger and which can be moved by a control element from an engagement position for cocking the striking hammer into a release position for releasing the cocked striking hammer. The control element is a control slide, which can be moved by the movement of an action during repetition of the small firearm and through which the trigger rail can be moved from its release position into a catch position for catching the striking hammer cocked during repetition.
