Ejectorpistoolien
Ejectorpistoolien is a term that refers to a class of firearms designed with a mechanism to automatically eject spent cartridge casings after a shot has been fired. This ejection process is a common feature in many semi-automatic and automatic pistols, distinguishing them from revolvers or single-shot firearms. The ejector mechanism typically works in conjunction with the firearm's action, which cycles after each shot to chamber a new round from the magazine. As the slide or bolt retracts, the extractor pulls the spent casing from the chamber, and the ejector then strikes the rim or base of the casing, propelling it out of the firearm's ejection port. The design and placement of the ejector can vary between different firearm models, influencing the direction and force with which the casings are expelled. This automatic ejection allows for rapid follow-up shots without manual intervention to clear the spent round, a crucial characteristic for self-defense and military applications.
