  • Patent number: 11892261
    Abstract: A rifle has a fixed main body including a barrel, a receiver with an upper opening, and a breech element. A carriage assembly is axially movable between an advanced shooting configuration and a retracted rearming configuration, and vice versa. The carriage assembly includes an assembly body positioned on the receiver at the upper opening, which is axially slidably movable, having a through housing extending transversally, a firearm handle with an outer portion grippable and an inner portion shaped for complementarily housing in the through housing, being insertable both sides, and a shutter group partially accommodated in the assembly body, including a shutter body and a shutter head. The shutter head is mountable onto the shutter body in first and second angular positions, which are reciprocally inverted. The rifle is configurable for a right-handed or a left-handed person by changing the position of the firearm handle and the shutter head.

  • Patent number: 8939060
    Abstract: An operating system for an individual firearm, such as a rifle, comprises a carriage (14) sliding axially in the compartment of the body of the firearm, an obturator (10) associable to the barrel (2), an elastic element (16), compressible between the carriage (14) and the obturator (10). In the configuration of firearm ready to fire with the bullet in the barrel, the obturator (10) has a free compression stroke (D) for the compression of the elastic element (16) and the barrel (2) has a free firing stroke (C) in relation to the abutment (32) of the operating compartment (8).
