摘要 |
The invention relates to a blank firing attachment 1 for an automatic tube weapon and is connected to a muzzle 6 of a weapon barrel 7 in order to fire blank cartridges without any projectile. The blank firing attachment 1 is used to control the gas pressure behaviour of the propellant charge gases in order, in the case of tube weapons which are controlled by gas pressure, to simulate a functional sequence as well as the muzzle sound and weapon recoil in a similar manner to the processes when firing live ammunition. The particular advantage of the blank firing attachment 1 according to the invention is the capability to match a standardised blank firing attachment 1 to different weapon barrels and different blank cartridges, by adjusting a gas piston 4 in the housing 2. In the case of a further particularly advantageous exemplary embodiment of the invention, the blank firing attachment 1 is provided with a gas deflection ring 15 so that the recoil of the weapon barrel 7 can be increased by the propellant charge gases flowing out. Furthermore, adapters are provided which allow the combination of a standardised blank firing attachment 1 according to the invention with different muzzle diameters and rifling. <IMAGE>
