Abstract
In a firing weapon with an elevatable weapon barrel, it must be possible to fix or lock the weapon barrel in each desired position. For this purpose, known firing weapons are equipped with braking devices in which large frictional forces occur, thereby making it necessary to use servo-mechanisms. In accordance with the invention, the elevation of the weapon barrel is fixed or locked by means of a cylinder and a piston. The piston comprises a closeable through-passage opening through which a pressure medium flows, as long as the through-passage opening is open between a chamber located on one side or face of the piston into an other chamber located on the other side or face of the piston. The through-passage opening is closeable for fixing or locking the weapon barrel at a predeterminate elevation.
