ABSTRACT:
A firearm whose body has two opposite sides for the ejection of shells is provided with a removable hood having a lateral shield which permits the marksman to cover that one of the two orifices which is not in use. The upper portion of the hood has a convex curved shape corresponding to the shape of the upper wall of the firearm body but of slightly smaller cross-section. At the bottom of the lateral shield of the hood, a hook is provided to grip an edge at the base of the side wall. The hook acts as a hinge for the positioning of the hood by a transverse tilting movement accompanied by an elastic deformation due to expansion of the curved upper portion of the hood. The upper portion thus comes to cap over and elastically grip the curved upper portion of the body of the firearm.
