ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to an automatic safety device for fire arms, in particular for automatic guns to be operated starting from their open-bolt position. A movable slider (12) and a rocking catch lever (19), both assembled to a support on the bolt (11), cooperate in order to allow the lever to engage in a toothed section (15) on the breech (10) and thus prevent the bolt from moving forwards in case of a faulty move, of a release or missed catch during its manual cocking and to maintain the device out of action while the arm is operated wither automatically or manually. Owing to this structure the possibility of uncontrolled or accidental shots is actually eliminated.
