Has anyone tried out this project, a single-shot 22 RF? TomP Our country, right or wrong. When right, to be kept right, when wrong to be put right. Carl Schurz (1829 - 1906) | ||

Lots of folks recreating older rifles. DeHaas has some great plans. If you want a simple rimfire, look to Browning's patent #511,677. .22 rimfire with 2 moving parts and one of those is the spring.

Interesting. The breechblock aspect leaves me puzzled, but I haven't studied the patent long enough to understand all of it (I can be kind of simple sometimes). TomP Our country, right or wrong. When right, to be kept right, when wrong to be put right. Carl Schurz (1829 - 1906) | |||

Basically, the trigger, hammer and breach block are all one in the same. Pulling the trigger releases the breach block with the fixed firing pin to pop up at an angle. At the top I f the travel the firing pin indents the rim and fires the cartridge. Dave In 100 years who of us will care? An armed society is a polite society!

The hammer rides at a steep enough angle to be a sticking taper, then, and isn't driven back down the spring channel when the cartridge is fired? TomP Our country, right or wrong. When right, to be kept right, when wrong to be put right. Carl Schurz (1829 - 1906) | |||

Correct. The moment of force generated by the fired cartridge is directly in line with the bore. It pushes against the mechanism as if it were a lever but there is no way for it to rotate. You got it! Dave In 100 years who of us will care? An armed society is a polite society! Just because they say you are paranoid doesn't mean they are not out to get you. | |||

Now I have a picture in my head and have to see if I'm right. A bad day at the range is better than a good day at work. | |||

I would love to see a sketch or a good picture of the hammer. I can not wrap my brain around the location of the pivot point vs the force vector from the cartridge. Don't limit your challenges . . . Challenge your limits | |||
