The structural design of Mi 1896 Bergman automatic pistol is very unique, mainly manifested in:
Unique ammunition supply mechanism
Mi 1896 Bergman automatic pistol has a magazine cover on the right side of the gun body. When the box cover is opened by downward rotation, the box support rod rotates downward together with the box cover. When the magazine cover is completely opened, the ejector pin also stops rotating. You can install it at this time.
When the magazine cover rotates upward, the magazine support rod rotates upward together with the magazine cover under the action of the spring. When the magazine cover rotates in place, the magazine cover loses control of the magazine support rod, and the magazine support rod fixes the bullet in the magazine under the action of the spring. This magazine cover and side loading design only appeared in the early Bergman automatic pistol.
Bullets can be loaded one by one or through magazines. If a magazine is used to supply ammunition, the magazine must be taken out when shooting. These two ways of ammunition supply are realized by opening the movable magazine cover on the right side of the gun body.
A unique way of throwing shells.
The early production of No.3 1896 Bergman automatic pistol has no hook and shell throwing handle, because it uses bottomless bullets. It pushes the cartridge case and bolt backwards through the recoil generated by gunpowder gas. As soon as the shell came out of the gun bore, it was thrown out under the extrusion of the next bullet.
Today, this design is obviously not reliable. Although this shell-throwing principle does not need a shell-pulling hook, it is very necessary to add a shell-pulling hook in order to ensure normal shell-throwing under harsh conditions. Therefore, the No.3 1896 Bergman automatic pistols manufactured in the later period all have shell hooks and use bottom-edged bullets.
After loading, the bolt is pulled backwards. Under the pressure of bolt retreating, the hammer falls backwards and the recoil spring is compressed. When the bolt is pulled backward and cannot move, the bullet moves upward under the action of the support rod, and the trigger is pressed back to its original position. Release your hand, and the gun will move forward freely under the action of the compound spring, pushing the bullet into the bore. At this time, the trigger is pulled and the hammer is released. Under the action of the hammer, the needle hits the bottom fire of the bullet and fires the bullet.
In addition, the safety of the gun is achieved by pulling the safety lever upward. The safety lever is an arc lever located above the handle on the left side of the gun body. When the hammer is pressed in place, pull up the safety lever to lock the hammer to achieve safety.
M 1896 Bergman automatic pistol Theodore? Bergman is an industrialist, and he is convinced that military light weapons have huge potential profits. 1850 may 2 1 day, he was born in a family that owns a hotel and makes wine in the town of dorf, Spasa. When he was young, Bergman worked in a local furnace factory and gradually became interested in steel manufacturing.
1879, he and his wife came to Gayana Town, one of the heavy industrial areas in Germany, where there are many steel products manufacturing companies, and Bergman became one of the shareholders of a steel company.
With the passage of time, Bergman's position in the company gradually rose. When the second largest shareholder retired, he had completely controlled all the shares of the company. In the last few years of the late19th century, Bergman Steel Company has been producing stoves, household appliances, farm tools, fences, gas stove control valves, air guns and air rifles. Starting from 1906, "Orient Express" cars are also produced. However, the main products that helped Bergman gain international reputation were his light weapons, especially pistols.
1892, Bergman met the Hungarian watchmaker Odu? Brousset, Brousset had the idea of automatically loading a pistol with a breech lock, and communicated this idea with Bergman.
Bergman was very interested in this and applied for a patent in Germany at 1892. As an entrepreneur, Bergman needs a designer to design the details of a pistol for him, and Louis? Stone (1848— 19 17) is just what he needs. The teacher absorbed the idea of Broussette, who applied for a patent by Bergman, and improved it.
The first pistol he designed was a self-loading pistol with delayed recoil. The bolt of this pistol is set on the inclined plane of the gun frame, so the recoil is delayed. The gun was named Mi 1893 pistol, and only a small amount was produced, one of which was sent to Switzerland for testing in 1893.
Inspired by relevant Swiss experiments, Bergman and messer made many improvements on the basis of Mi 1893 pistol, and developed Mi 1894 pistol, which can fire both bottom-edged bullets and bottomless bullets, but the output is very small.
Since then, Bergman has been working hard to develop new guns and promote the sales of various products, but his achievements and influence are much worse than he expected. 19 10, Bergman retired from the position of company manager. He died 2 1 year later at the age of 8 1 year.
