ABSTRACT:
A loading lever assembly for a hand-operated firearm has a loading lever which can be pivoted from a released position in which it lies in the longitudinal direction of the weapon to an end-of-swing position on either side of the weapon. The lever is pivotally connected to a mounting strip on the breech block carrier by means of an oblong slot formed in an end of the loading lever and a pivot pin on the mounting strip. The oblong slot allows the lever to be moved from an end-of-swing position to an operation position in which the loading lever engages two end stops on the mounting strip to prevent the lever from swinging forward or rearward. A spring-loaded cam arrangement provides the restoring force for returning the lever to the released position from the end-of-swing positions.
