Abstract (en)

A simulated weapon comprising a spring compressor (2) for generating a compressed air flow, a movable positioning device (3) for loading a pellet (4) in a shot chamber (5) which receives the compressed air generated by the spring compressor (2), an actuator (6) for controlling the spring compressor (2) and the positioning device (3), a magazine (7) for feeding the shot chamber (5) with pellets (4) and a trigger (8), the simulated weapon further comprising a first sensor (23; 40) for detecting a status of the trigger (8) and at least a second sensor (24; 25) for detecting the connection of the magazine (7) so that the pellets (4) are fed into the shot chamber (5) or that the magazine (7) should be replaced, and an electric or electronic control device (22) configured to prevent the activation of the actuator (6) by means of the trigger (8) if the magazine (7) is not connected so as to feed the pellets (4) and/or if the magazine (7) is to be replaced.
