ABSTRACT:
A watertight and corrosion-resistant percussion igniter has a housing, a percussion cap in the housing and a firing pin mounted in the housing and having a free end spaced from and adapted to impact the percussion cap. A one-piece tubular holder surrounds the firing pin and has at least one transverse hole, and a retaining member is located in the hole and engages in a depression formed in the firing pin. A biasing spring biases the firing pin towards the percussion cap and makes the free end of the firing pin impact the cap when the retaining member becomes disengaged from the depression so that the firing pin can move relative to the tubular holder.
