AIR RIFLE Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: air guns. SUBSTANCE: spring-loaded shaped ring 10 is installed on compression cylinder 3 located under barrel extension 2 for limited turning. In the initial position cocking lever 6 turns ring 10 counter-clockwise, as a result, spring 11 of ring 10 gets compressed, and arm 12 of bolt 7 gets released from pressure of ring 10. The gun can be loaded with a bullet and the barrel can be locked with bolt 7. At a withdrawal of lever 6 spring 11 turns ring 10 clockwise, ring 10 presses arm 12 of bolt 7 and turns the latter until handle 8 comes out of lateral groove 13 of barrel extension 2. Bolt 7 moves backward under the action of its spring. After piston 4 of cylinder 3 is cocked, cocking lever 6 is returned to the initial position, and the gun is loaded. EFFECT: improved design. 2 cl, 6 dwg
