ABSTRACT:
A firing mechanism for a pistol comprises a firing pin, a hammer for striking on the firing pin, a hammer spring biasing the hammer, and a catch lever for temporarily locking the hammer in a cocked position is designed to have a safety function. In order to provide a structurally simple mechanism which provides perfect safety against an unintended discharge of a shot without need for additional parts, the catch lever is provided with two locking surfaces. When the hammer is uncocked, the firing pin bears on one of said locking surfaces in the firing direction and the hammer bears on the other of said locking surfaces in the striking sense.
