Military / Defense / guns, firearms | | Spanish term or phrase: brida de unión | Es una traducción de la pistola Ballester Molina.
Al describir las piezas dice:"... el eslabón o brida de unión que hace el enlace del añón a la armadura..." |
| | | barrel link | Explanation:
Es también llamada cadeneta (parece un eslabón de cadena).
Acordate que Ballester es clon de Colt 1911, así que vas a poder conseguir mucho material buscando por ese lado, por ej: http://www.m1911.org/technic.htm
En este link aparecen cosas como:
The barrel link
The barrel link. It's been called the Swinging Link..The Locking Link... the Falling Link...and...The Link. A lot of mystery surrounds that simple little machine...and several heated arguments have been mounted over its function.
What exactly does the link do?
The link has two jobs...Unlocking the barrel from the slide, and timing that event. That's it. It also acts as a sort of guide...to keep the barrel tracking in a fairly straight line as it rises and falls...but that's incidental.

Susana: si tenés alguna armería cerca, pediles que te presten un catálogo de Gun Parts (Numrich) de cualquier edición. Allí encontrarás despieces exhaustivos que te van a solucionar cualquier problema. Si no encontrás a nadie, avisame que te mando una copia escaneada del mío. (Soy instructor de tiro, no armero :-, pero igual tengo el mío. La biblia del fierrero ;-) Jajajaja! ) ¡Suerte! |
