One example control element for controlling a breechblock stop lever that can move about a first axis of rotation, which can be moved between a standby position for releasing a breechblock carrier and a retaining position for retaining the breechblock carrier, includes a first arm () that can rotate about a second axis of rotation (B), a first control section on the first arm, the first control section including a first contact surface () and a second contact surface () facing away from the first contact surface (), which can be rotated about the second axis of rotation (B) for the control element () by a control curve () on the breechblock carrier (); and a second control section () on the first arm, wherein the second control section can be controlled by a control surface () on a trigger (). Other examples are possible.

Control element, breechblock stop lever, breechblock carrier, trigger, trigger assembly for an automatic weapon, and an automatic weapon equipped therewith

In one example, the disclosure relates to adjustable flip up sight assembly that can be adjusted vertically and laterally in particular, for an automatic firearm, comprising a front sight support element that is supported by an axle on a mount, in particular such that they can pivot thereon, wherein the front sight support element has an adjustment element supported on a spring element and releasably connected to a front sight, which contains a keyhole type opening through which the axle is inserted, wherein the adjustment element can be moved in relation to the axle against the spring force between two positions inside the front sight support element such that the keyhole opening prevents a lateral movement of the front sight support element along the axle when engaged with the axle, and allows the lateral adjustment of the front sight support element in a released position.

Adjustable sight assembly

A trigger assembly for a fire arm including a breechblock moving between a base position and a charging position. The trigger assembly includes a catch lever moving between a resting position and a catch position. The trigger assembly includes a trigger element moving between a non-actuation and an actuation position to transfer the catch lever from the catch position into the resting position, and a release element moving between a hold position and a release position for releasing the catch lever. The release element is transferred from the hold position into the release position by the breechblock moving toward the charging position. The release element pivots about a release-element axis movable relative to the trigger element so the release element in the non-actuation position moves out of a movement space of the breechblock when the trigger is secured via a breechblock moving towards the base position.
