ABSTRACT:
A small arms weapon having a barrel for directing a projectile and a slide riven by recoil when firing. The weapon includes a locking block coupling the barrel and the slide during recoil. The weapon is modified for fatigue release, by selecting either cut-out portions, grooves or notches machined in the slide for controlling the direction of fatigue in the slide caused by the recoil. The weapon incurs fatigue an increase in weapon headspace during firing, so that the wear indicates a time to replace the slide before wear becomes dangerous.
