Abstract

L'assemblage de bandoulière pour un fusil de chasse ou autre arme à feu similaire consiste en une portion de crosse (1) du fût d'un fusil, un premier crochet tournant multidirectionnel (3) se trouvant à la partie arrière ou crosse du fusil, lequel crochet tournant est fixé de manière tournante ou pivotante entre la pointe et le talon de la portion de crosse du fût du fusil une portion extrême antérieure (2) du fût, un second crochet tournant multidirectionnel (4) prévu dans la partie antérieure du fût lequel second crochet tournant est fixé de manière pivotante à l'un des deux côtés de ladite portion extrême antérieure (2) du fût du fusil et relié au premier crochet tournant multidirectionnel (3), et le second crochet tournant multidirectionnel (4) est une bandoulière (5) dont on peut régler la longueur. Une arme à feu équipée de cet assemblage de bandoulière peut être portée avantageusement dans diverses positions "prêt à tirer" sans fatiguer pour autant les bras de la personne portant l'arme à feu et elle permet de faire feu rapidement avec une précision considérable étant donné que le premier crochet pivotant (3) guide la crosse (1) vers le point correct de l'épaule. Dans le tir sur cible, la bandoulière (5) est serrée de sorte que le premier crochet tournant (3) tienne la crosse contre l'épaule, et la partie de l'avant-bras est supportée par le second crochet tournant (4) depuis le dos du tireur; le score augmente. En poussant le fusil vers la cible, on peut contrôler un tir automatique.
