ABSTRACT:
A gun which has an improved firing mechanism which enables it to be completely automatic through ejection of the magazine by eliminating the need for a selector switch. The firing mechanism has a substantially J-shaped hammer with a sear embedded therein. The sear is shaped, preferably hemispherically, at its framework end so that it will fall into a recess in the framework during the firing cycle. The draglink has a curved upper surface which is preferably concave or bowl-shaped. An associated magazine follower has a cam at its front center for tripping a release latch.
