ABSTRACT:
A fully automatic self-loading weapon is disclosed. The weapon has a functional part that can be moved by the release of a round, and a connectable and disconnectable single-shot device which, when activated, causes release of one shot for every actuation of the weapon trigger. To restrict the number of rounds of a burst to only two rounds, after release of one round with the single-shot device disconnected, the movement of the functional part automatically activates the single-shot device so that only a single additional round is released.
