Abstract
The magazine lock includes a housing (1) with a magazine opening (2) and a trigger guard (3). In the housing (1), a two-armed, spring-loaded locking lever (7) is mounted so that it can pivot. The first arm (10) projects inside the trigger guard (3) for actuation. The second arm (12) is engaged in a recess (6) of the magazine (4). Hinged to the first arm (10) is a slide (24) which surrounds the magazine opening (2). The slide (24), on the second side facing the magazine (4), has a pin (28) which is engaged in a second recess (5) on the facing side of the magazine (4). The result is a secure locking of the magazine with a locking device which occupies very little vertical space.
