  • Patent number: 7536819
    Abstract: The invention concerns an adjustable recoil pad for a small arm, in particular, a rifle, with a base plate that can be adjustably affixed to a stock part of the small arm, a bottom plate which is adjustably mounted on the base plate, and at least one end part that can be affixed to the bottom plate. A simplified adjustment with a large number of adjustment possibilities is made possible in that the bottom plate is arranged so it can swivel about a transverse axis on a connecting piece, which is displaceably guided via guide elements on the base plate, and can be affixed in a desired position by at least one retaining screw.

  • Patent number: 7185454
    Abstract: A breech of a repeater weapon has a bolt assembly, which is guided so that it can rotate about its longitudinal axis in a chamber sleeve and can move in the axial direction in the longitudinal direction of the weapon, and which contains a sleeve. A percussion piece is arranged so that it can move in the axial direction in the sleeve. A tensioning device is provided for tensioning and relaxing a percussion piece spring exerting force on the percussion piece. To enable a fast and simple exchange of the locking head, the bolt assembly contains an exchangeable locking head and a locking mechanism that can be relaxed by the tensioning device for holding the locking head on the sleeve.

  • Patent number: 6839997
    Abstract: Device for removal of cartridges and/or cartridge casings in a drop-barrel weapon having at least one cartridge ejector axially displaceable in a barrel part for removal of unfired cartridges and an ejector mechanism acting on the cartridge ejector for ejection of spent cartridge casings. The ejector mechanism has a locking pin, displaceable in the cartridge ejector, for releasable locking of the cartridge ejector in the barrel part. A guide pin is arranged in the cartridge ejector that engages on the cartridge ejector via a compression spring arranged in the interior of the cartridge ejector and can be displaced by a tension slide arranged on barrel part.

  • Patent number: 6820361
    Abstract: A break-action firearm with a breech housing, a barrel section that can pivot about a hinge bearing on the breech housing, and a removable fore-end, which contains on its front end a locking mechanism and on its rear end a bearing section for pivoting connection to the breech housing. This provides an easy-to-manufacture fore-end of the break-action firearm with minimal overall height, such that the hinge bearing grasps hinge pin, which project laterally inwards from the breech housing and which engage in lateral recesses on opposing side surfaces of a fastener section of the barrel section. In addition, the bearing section has bolts, which project inwards with at least one lateral contact surface and which lead to contact on corresponding abutment surfaces on the two side surfaces of the fastener section.

  • Patent number: 6813854
    Abstract: A bolt system for multi-barrel rifles with at least two firing pin pieces. Trigger levers are associated with the firing pin pieces. At least one trigger can rotate about a trigger axis. At least one pivotable pendulum weight is provided for avoiding an unintended firing of a shot. The pendulum weight is arranged on the trigger in such a manner that it can pivot about a pivot axis that is located, viewed in the direction of firing, in front of the trigger axis, and the center of gravity of the pendulum weight is located above the trigger axis.

  • Patent number: 6796067
    Abstract: A lock system for a multi-barrel gun with at least two movably arranged firing pin pieces and a trigger device that has sears associated with the firing pin pieces, at least one trigger, and a switching mechanism for automatically connecting the trigger to the sear of the not yet released second firing pin piece after the firing of a first shot as a consequence of an actuation of the sear of the first firing pin piece for its release by the trigger. The switching mechanism has a base body that can shift in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the gun. The base body includes a firing lever rotatably arranged on it that can be actuated by the trigger, that is at an interval from the sears in the cocked state of the firing pin pieces and that does not engage with the sear belonging to the second firing pin piece for firing the second shot until after completion of the spring-back of the weapon.

  • Patent number: 6481135
    Abstract: A rotatable breech mechanism includes a bolt rotatably supported in a chamber housing by a bolt handle, and which in one rotated position thereof is locked to a barrel chamber sleeve and in a further rotated position thereof is unlocked from the sleeve. A spring-loaded extractor is arranged at a front end of the bolt. The extractor, in one rotated position of the bolt, grips an edge of a bottom of a sleeve of a cartridge inserted into a cartridge chamber, whereby upon a rotation of the bolt from the one position into a further position the chamber housing with the bolt automatically carries out a movement away from the cartridge chamber during which the extractor releases the cartridge from the cartridge chamber. The chamber housing supports an axially movable pin which is supported at its front end on the barrel chamber sleeve.
