  • Patent number: 11913741
    Abstract: Firearms including a secured firing pin retaining pin, the firearms having a barrel, a sliding block, a bolt head, a firing pin with a flange-like collar, a firing pin retaining pin with a safety device, and a weapon median plane. For facilitating handling, it is provided that the firing pin retaining pin is slidably mounted normally to the weapon median plane in a retaining bore, that it is designed as one piece and to be rotationally symmetrical with a head and a pin end and has two annular grooves. A locking pin mounted in a spring-loaded manner in the sliding block is designed such that, depending on the position of the firing pin retaining pin in the retaining bore, it can optionally engage in one of the annular grooves, which correspond to a holding position and a release position for the firing pin, respectively.

  • Patent number: 11885580
    Abstract: Firearms with cartridge-case ejection, including a barrel with a movable bolt carrier with a bolt, with a breech face, with a movable ejector and with a firearm-fixed functional edge which pushes the ejector into its ejection position when the bolt carrier moves back after a shot has been fired. In order to create an ejection that is always evenly performed, an ejector lever is arranged on the bolt carrier so that it can be rotated about a pivot axis running normal to the firearm's central plane, which abuts against the functional edge when the bolt carrier moves backwards and thereby twisted so that it abuts an impact surface of the ejector and forces it to the eject position.
