Abstract (en)
[origin: US6314859B1] An unlocked self-loading pistol and a conversion kit for modifying a locked self-loading pistol adapted for firing normal and powerful cartridges into an unlocked self-loading pistol capable of firing weak cartridges as well as normal and powerful cartridges is disclosed. The unlocked self-loading pistol includes a return spring which is closely surrounded on the outside by a sleeve composed of an elastomer material. The length of the elastomer sleeve corresponds approximately to the length of the compressed return spring. The sleeve absorbs a part of the movement energy of the breech and passes it on into the grip. The conversion kit can be used to convert a locked self-loading pistol into an unlocked self-loading pistol as stated above and vice versa. The disclosed conversion kit includes: an alternate barrel which does not come into locked engagement with the breech, the abovementioned elastomer sleeve, and, optionally, a substitute return spring. The locked self-loading pistol and the conversion kit together form a weapon system which can be used to assemble a locked self-loading pistol or an unlocked self-loading pistol, as desired. The unlocked self-loading pistol can fire very lightly filled ammunition and normally filled ammunition without malfunction, and additionally ensures that the breech will withstand the firing of heavily filled ammunition.
