Abstract:
The light-weight handheld less-lethal ballistic projectile launcher is configured as an “over/under” double barrel handheld device with a “break open” loading action. The launcher includes a barrel section pivotally connected to receiver section. The barrel section pivots between an open load/unload position and a closed firing position. The barrel section includes two metal barrel sleeves that are press fit into axial bores formed in the body of the barrel section. The barrel section also includes an ejector, which locks the barrel section in the closed firing position and partially expels spent rounds from the barrel sleeves when the barrel section is opened. The receiver section houses the launcher's fire control mechanism. The fire control mechanism uses a traditional single action operation and ensures that rounds are alternatively discharged from each barrel and prevents rounds from both barrels from being discharged simultaneously.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a firearm having dual barrels comprising a firearm body which is equipped with a small caliber barrel and a large caliber barrel; a selector installed on one side of the firearm body to select the type of bullet and the mode of firing; a fire control system installed on the firearm body to enable aiming the target through detecting the target both at day and night time; a firearm switch unit installed on the firearm body to transmit the information on the firing of the bullet; a fuse setter installed on the firearm body to transmit the control signal of the fire control system to the fuse of the explosive bullet which is introduced into the large caliber barrel; and a sensor device unit installed on the firearm body to transmit the position of the selector and sensed firing signal to the fire control system.
Abstract:
A snap mechanism is disclosed for use in double-barrelled shot-guns having two hammers and a single trigger. The mechanism utilizes a sled-like selector means mounted on and displaceable transversely on an oscillating connector that connects the trigger with a rocker. The selector interacts with the snap rods of the hammers for selectively releasing or detaching first one hammer and then the other, or viceversa, depending on which of the two barrels is to be used in the firing of the cartridge.
Abstract:
The rifle presents the smooth-bore barrels, and the enbloc having the maximum calibre and the same calibre constituting a set of three barrels, arranged, in section, in the form of an equilateral triangle, with lower vertex. The firing device, correspondingly, presents a set of three firing-pins, hammers and fixture levers, able to produce, with the single trigger, a progressive sequence of shots, providing, in combination with differentiated necks, specially designed, a complete range of types of shot.
Abstract:
A firing mechanism for a firearm with a barrel assembly having a plurality of substantially parallel barrels. The mechanism comprises a like plurality of firing assemblies, each assembly being associated with one barrel. The firing assembly is arranged to selectively discharge one or more cartridges. The assembly includes a trigger adapted to engage and release the firing assembly in sequence, and it includes means for adjustably controlling the number of firing assemblies which can be released upon a single actuation of the trigger.
Abstract:
A firing mechanism in double-barrel guns is provided, the firing mechanism including a single trigger which can be moved generally laterally by the marksman''s finger between alternate firing portions, for selectively firing either barrel. Also, a keyoperated lock means is provided for locking the movable trigger in a non-firing, safety position..
Abstract:
An arrangement for pre-selecting the firing sequence of a double-barrelled gun, in which a pivoted selector arm resiliently connected to a single trigger is displaceable parallel to its pivot axis between two positions in which it is positively located for cooperation with one or the other of two hammer release catches for discharging a selected one of the barrels first upon pulling the trigger when both hammers are cocked, according to the position in which the said pivoted arm is located.
Abstract:
A multiple-barrel hand weapon with selective barrel discharge capability containing a like number of cartridges and having a selectively adjustable arming mechanism so that a shooter can fire each cartridge individually by successive actuations of the trigger or, alternatively, can fire groups of cartridges simultaneously upon successive actuations of the trigger.
