Abstract
In an explosive charge driven setting gun a breech block is located in the rear of the gun housing and the gun barrel is axially displaceable within the gun housing. A firing projection is formed on the rear end of the barrel so that a propellant charge supported on the breech block can be fired by displacing the barrel rearwardly against the breech block. The displacement force can be provided by a spring which biases the barrel rearwardly. A latch can be mounted in the housing for securing the barrel in a forward position and when the latch is released, the barrel can be displaced rearwardly against the breech block.
