ABSTRACT:
A device is described for attaching a silencer to a portable firearm, such as a pistol, which is characterized by a combination of elements such as a silencer-supporting body which has an axial aperture for receiving the barrel of the firearm, and a pair of arms one on each side of the barrel extending parallel to the body of the firearm toward the trigger guard thereof. There are two spines in the device one parallel to the axial opening of the body of the silencer and the other transversely located thereto and serving as a blocking mechanism. The second spine serves the purpose of preventing the automatic operation of the firearm and is so constructed so as to prevent its complete detachment from the device itself. An arresting spring engages alternatively a pair of throats provided on a terminal head of one of the arms so as to block the spine in one of two corresponding positions. The silencer may be provided with its aiming mechanism which can be used in place of the existing one on the firearm. A small piston lodged transversely in the body of the silencer constitutes the activating and deactiving means of a lever which controls the blocking of the automatic operation of the firearm.
