Abstract (en)

[origin: US6349495B1] A firing pin control device for a small arm is disclosed. The small arm includes a hammer, a housing including a fixed part, a slide disposed in the housing, with the slide being moveable between an open position and a closed position, and a firing pin mounted to the slide and being moveable relative to the slide along a linear path between a first position in which contact between the firing pin and the hammer is prevented and a second position in which contact between the firing pin and the hammer is permitted. The firing pin control assembly includes a pair of sleeves mounted in the slide, with the firing pin being slidable relative to the sleeves. A forward one of the sleeves engages the firing pin and is moveable between a forward position in which the firing pin is disposed in the first position and a rearward position in which the firing pin is disposed in the second position. The firing pin control assembly includes a counterspring arranged to bias the forward sleeve toward the forward position. A portion of the sleeve cooperates with the fixed housing part to thereby move the firing pin to the second position in response to movement of the slide to the closed position.
