  • handgun is understood to include handguns, such as recoil loader weapons, gas pressure guns, pistols or the like.
  • the inven tion is described using the example of a gun, although the present invention is not limited thereto and can be used in all types of handguns having a closure or a closure piece.
  • Silencers can be screwed onto the gun barrel via a screw thread on the front end of the gun barrel.
  • a silencer is known, for example, from DE 4231183 C1.
  • a solution to this problem is not rigidly connect the muffler and the gun barrel, but to arrange a so-called.
  • Pulse generator between the muffler and the gun barrel, which is connected on the one hand to the muffler and the other with the gun barrel.
  • the Impulsge allows an axial movement of the gun barrel relative to the muffler. With the pulse generator so the gun barrel is mechanically decoupled from the muffler, so that the self-loading function of the firearm is largely guaranteed despite the muffler.
