Definitions
- the present invention concerns rifles of the kind in which the bullet is propelled by explosive powder gases, in particular small caliber marksman rifles such as target rifles, snipers' rifles and small-bore match rifles.
- a rifle comprises a stock, normally of wood, housing a so-called action which comprises a bolt and firing pin, and also a trigger mechanism.
- the stock further supports a barrel that is linked to the action forming together an assembly to be referred to hereinafter as action-barrel assembly.
- the action-barrel assembly comprises a rear sight mounted as a rule on top of the action and a front sight mounted on the barrel near the muzzle thereof.
- a round of ammunition is loaded into the breech whereupon the shooter grips the rifle in an adequate fashion, presses the butt against his shoulder and one of the sides of the rear portion of the stock against his cheek, and upon proper aiming squeezes the trigger.
- Air rifles with recoiling action-barrel assemblies have been known for a long time but so far the recoiling action-barrel assembly concept has not been applied in rifles for shooting explosive ammunition.
- the invention provides a marksman rifle in which the action-barrel assembly is elastically tied to the stock.
- the elastic tie between the action-barrel assembly and the stock may be effected by any suitable means such as, for example, an elastic ribbon, springs or tape in combination with the interposition of elastic cushions between the assembly and the stock.
- cushioning may be by means of one single cushion layer extending over a significant portion of the assembly's bottom face, or else by means of a plurality of shorter cushions.
- the elastic tie is effected by means of at least one gripping member integral with the stock and comprising two gripping cushions located symmetrically with respect to the longitudinal axis of the action-barrel assembly.
- the performance of the marksman rifle of the kind specified can be further improved by shortening the barrel so as not to exceed half the length of a conventional barrel of a rifle of the same kind.
- the action-barrel assembly be made as light as functionally possible. If desired in such an embodiment weights may be added near the front end and optionally also at the rear end of the stock in order to increase the inertia and thereby the stability of the rifle.
- the trigger mechanism is mechanically separated from the action, e.g. by the use of an electrical trigger and other means all known per se.
- an extension tube bearing the front sight is mounted on the barrel's muzzle having a larger inner diameter than the barrel itself so that it has no influence on the performance of the rifle.
- the marksman rifle according to the invention shown in Fig. 1 comprises a stock having a fore portion 1 and a rear portion 2 with a hook-shaped attachment 3 fixed to the butt of the latter.
- a trigger mechanism 4 of a known kind and above it there is provided an action 5 with the interposition of rubber cushions 6.
- action 5 is mounted on action 5.
- the rifle further comprises a barrel 8 having at its muzzle end a front sight 9 and resting on a cushion 10 at the front end of front portion 1 of the stock.
- Cushions 6 and 10 form part of the elastic tie between the action-barrel assembly and the stock, which tie may comprise in addition an elastic ribbon, spring or tape (not shown).
- FIG. 2 A preferred embodiment of the tie between the action-barrel assembly and stock is shown in Figs. 2 and 3.
- the upper portion of the fore portion 1 of the stock comprises a groove 12 and a barrel-associated bracket 13 comprising two rubber cushions 14 arranged symmetrically with respect to the longitudinal axis of barrel 8 and gripping the latter.
- the tie system comprises a second, action-associated bracket 15 of similar design. If desired, a third, similarly designed gripping bracket may be provided near the muzzle of barrel 8.
- barrel 16 is short and in this particular case essentially coextensive with the front part 1 of the stock.
- the barrel is less than half the length of that in a similar conventional rifle and in consequence reduced.
- extension tube 17 whose inner diameter is larger than the bore of barrel 16 and on whose fore end there is mounted the front sight 9. Due to the fact that the inner diameter of extension tube 17 is larger than the bore of barrel 16, a fired bullet passes through extension tube 17 without touching the walls thereof and consequently the extension tube does essentially not affect on the ballistics and the extent of any jump is determined solely by the length of the barrel 16. At the same time extension tube 17 enables to ensure that the distance between the rear sight 7 and the front sight 9 is optimized.
- the hook-shaped attachment 3 is made of a heavy material and is mounted on the butt with the interposition of heavy butt plates 20 and 21.
