A double action pistol with safety decocking mechanism

摘要

A double action pistol with a safety-decocking mechanism in which a conventional safety catch is combined with a vertically reciprocable, downward biased plunger (12) located with the pistol's slide (2). When the plunger (12) is lifted it is capable of shifting the firing pin (3) into an intermidiary position in which both ends (11,10) of the firing pin (3) are withdrawn and the plunger (12) and firing pin (3) interlock.
