A firing mechanism for fire arms comprising a casing (,) and a trigger guard (,), a barrel (,), a mobile bolt (,) in the casing (,), comprises a hammer (,) controlling a striker (,), a spring (,) pushing the hammer (,) in its tumbled position, a tumbler (,), a trigger (,) controlling the tumbler (,) by means of a separator (,), a bolt stop (,) which stops the backward movement of the bolt (,) in a locked position and makes the bolt (,) assume another position, a control lever (,) which co-operates with the bolt stop (,) which is also mounted in a revolving manner in the trigger guard (,). The firing mechanism contains a release lever (,) mounted in a revolving manner in the trigger guard (,) and protruding outside the casing (,), whereby, in a first position, this release lever (,) engages the control lever (,) in the position which the latter assumes when the bolt stop (,) is in the locked position, whereby this release lever (,) makes the control lever (,) revolve as it revolves from said first position into a second position, what is called the release position, such that the bolt stop (,) revolves out of its locking position.

Firing mechanism for fire arms

Ejector for hunting weapons, characterized in that it shows on its rear extremity two arms (9, 10) separated from each other by a groove (8), one of the arms (9) being provided with a screw of which one of the extremities can act on the other arm (10) in order to adjust the position of this latter arm (10) in relation to its ejection sear.
