ABSTRACT:
A burst fire device makes it possible, by means of an appropriate fire selector, to fire either a single shot or controlled bursts comprising three or more shots every time the trigger of the firearm is pulled. The mechanism includes a ratchet wheel (3) pivoted on the receiver (4) of the firearm and having a plurality of trip teeth (24), (25), (26) corresponding to the number of shots to be fired with a burst. The whole movement of the ratchet wheel (3), and as a result the operation of the mechanism, is based on the direct contact of the trigger (1) against the ratchet wheel (3), which contact is provided exclusively by the pressure exerted by the operator's finger.
