ABSTRACT:
In a handgun having a spring biased breech locking mechanism and pistol grip handle, a breech release device mounted at the butt of the pistol grip handle to provide breech release access without disturbing the grip of the shooter's hand grasp. The device includes a base member which is fixed within the handle to the handgun receiver. Linkage means are attached at the remote end of said base member to permit coupling thereto of a lever means located at the butt of the handle. A connecting rod extends from a remote end of the lever means and engages the breech locking mechanism of the handgun. Contact between the connecting rod end and breech locking mechanism is maintained by the spring biasing force applied to the breech locking mechanism. By displacing the lever means, the connecting rod is extended and disengages the spring biased breech locking mechanism.
