4. Operation Wh en th e pistol is lo aded, th e ribs on the barrel lo ck into th e corres ponding grooves of th e slide, thus uniting the barrel and the s lid e. Wh en a cartridge is fired, th e recoil drives the slide rearwards . Until 3 mm {' /s") recoil way, th e barrel does not get out of its firing axis, while the bullet leaves th e barre l after a 2 mm ('/, 2") reco il. After 3 mm recoi l, th e barrel swings downwards, driven by th e slide stop and th e cam. Th e lock ing between barrel and slid e is suppressed and the barrel is stopped by the frame. Th e slide con tinu es its rea rward motion. Th e recoil energy of the slide is used to ext ract and eject th e empty case, to cock the hammer and compress the recoil spri ng . Th e recoil way of th e slide is limited by th e f rame. After th e recoil has been comp lete d, th e slide is driven forward by th e recoil spring. It pushes a new cartridge into the chamb er. At the end of the forward motion, barrel and slide are lo cked aga in .
5. Safeties Th e following safety devices provide great est security: a) Thumb safety. This lever locks the trigger rod and th e trigger. Th e hamm er ca nnot be disengage d. b) Magazine safety. T he magazine safety lowers th e tr igger rod when the magazine is

re mo ve d. Trigg er rod and sear are separated, the hammer cannot be disengaged. c) Safety when the slide is not fully closed . If the slide is not full y clo sed , it lo wers th e trigger rod , thus preventing it from engagi ng with th e sear. Th e hamm er cannot be disengaged. d) Safety notch. A second notch retains the hammer if it is let loose by inadvertance before it engages wit h th e sear by its principal notch.
6. Changing the calibre Th e p istol can be equipped w ith a ba rrel for either 9 mm or 7,65 mm ca libre. Onl y the barrel and reco il sp ring have to be changed to fire one or the other cal i bre. The magazine remains th e same in both cases. Th e weapo n can furth ermore be used with a conversion unit .22 long rifle consisting of a lighter slid e, a barrel .22 with co rresponding recoil spring and a magazine. With the help of this conversion unit, the .22 lo ng rifle ammunition can be fired automatical ly with exce ll ent accuracy . The function of the pistol remains the same as with the norm al ammun ition , the barrel however is unlocked, because of th e reduced recoil. T his conversion unit is most interesting for s hooting training sin ce th e .22 ammunition is less expensive than the regular pistol ammun iti on.

8. Particularities The particularities of the pistol can be summarized as follows : a) Accuracy. The cam prevents any motion of the barrel out of the firing axis as long as the bullet has not left the barrel. The weapon is fitted with a fine double pull trigger which can easily be adjusted.
