ABSTRACT:
The invention concerns a percussion primer for ammunition without case or ammunition with combustible case of the type comprising a sensitive composition 6 placed against an anvil 7.
The anvil is developed in a combustible block 4 provided with a vent 5 arranged at a conical end of the combustible block 4 and coaxial with a firing pin 3 with flat end firmly connected with the weapon; the anvil is formed of the sharp edge of the conical end of the block defining the vent and fits the shape of the cross section of the firing pin, in order to permit the shearing of the sensitive composition.
The primer in accordance with the invention is of great selectivity and is practically insensitive to accidental percussion.
