Abstract (en)

[origin: US5540008A] An improved system bearing on a firearm is proposed in which the barrel is clamped by means of a wedge-locking mechanism in the barrel bed of a receiver developed at the breech of the firearm. The wedge-locking mechanism can exhibit a tension wedge or a locking mechanism via normal inclined running wedge surfaces. The system bearing block is structured such that the barrel locking mechanism can make available an additional supplemental lock.
