| 摘要 |
The invention relates to an improved retaining and release mechanism for the magazines of automatic and/or semi-automatic firearms. A tooth (52) of lever (54) is designed to engage lateral securing slot (34) of magazine (30). The lever (54) is urged towards a body (16) of the firearm by energy exerted through a plunger (82) from a plunger spring (80) contained within the shaft (36). A base (38) is attached to the spring loaded shaft (36) located transversely in body (16) of the firearm and attached at its opposite end to an operating pushbutton (44). The tooth (52) can be disengaged from the lateral securing slot (34) by depressing either operating pushbutton (44) or slide (62). The invention's ambidextrous function can be engaged or disengaged by extending or retracting, respectively, slide (62) over locking shelves (70a, 70b). The magazine (30) can thus be released from both sides of the rifle.
