Principles of Operation
A.
B.
With the weapon loaded and the hammer unlocked a shot can be fired by
squeezing the trigger. (A shot can also be fired with the hammer cocked in
the single action mode of firing.)
C.
By squeezing the trigger, the trigger bar is drawn forward and cocks the
hammer. The trigger bar also operates the safety lever to lift the safety
lock. The safety lever draws the sear out of register with the hammer while
the safety lock releases the firing pin. Continued movement of the trigger
causes the trigger bar to release the hammer which strikes the firing pin
and detonates the cartridge primer.
D.
E.
During slide recoil, the hammer is cocked; the spent case is extracted and
ejected as it strikes the ejector. In the initial recoil phase, the safety lever
and safety lock separate automatically rendering the firing pin safety lock
effective again. As recoil continues, the slide depresses the trigger bar,
disconnecting it from the safety lever. Sear spring pressure returns the
sear and safety lever to their initial positions.
F.
After contacting the receiver stop, the slide is thrust forward by the
compressed recoil spring, stripping a round from the magazine and
chambering it on the way. Just before reaching the forward end position,
the slide again locks up with the barrel. The complete system is then
thrust fully into the forward battery position by recoil spring pressure.
G. Releasing the trigger allows the trigger bar and safety lever to engage
again. The weapon is now cocked and ready to fire. After firing the last
shot, the slide is arrested in the rearmost position by the slide catch lever.
This catch is actuated positively by the magazine follower which is raised
by magazine spring pressure.
1.4
Slide and Barrel Assembly. The slide holds the firing pin and extractor,
and cocks the hammer during recoil cycle. Barrel houses the cartridge for
firing and directs projectile. Locking insert locks the barrel in position
during firing.
B.
Recoil Spring and Recoil Spring Guide. Absorbs recoil and returns the
slide and barrel assembly to the forward position.
C.
Frame. Serves as a support for all major components. Controls the action
of the pistol through the major components.

Description
The P226 Combat Pistol is a semiautomatic, magazine fed, short recoil operated,
mechanically locked, double/single action pistol, chambered for the 9 X 19mm
Parabellum (Luger) cartridge.
FWARNING
The P226 combat pistol has no manually-operated safety catch. Discharge can
occur by pulling the trigger in either the double action mode or the single
action mode.
2.3
B.
Magazine - The magazine is produced from sheet steel and has a total
capacity of 15 rounds. The rounds are positioned within the magazine in a
staggered arrangement. Rounds are visible through the viewing holes
located along the sides of the magazine housing. The floor plate can be
Loaded Chamber Indicator - The P226 Combat Pistol does not have a
loaded chamber indicator. The extractor does not act as a loaded
chamber indicator.
D.
FWARNING
There is no external manually operated safety catch on the P226 Combat Pistol.
Never carry this weapon with a cartridge in the chamber and the hammer
cocked. To safely carry the loaded pistol, ensure that the decocking lever is
thumbed down and the weapon is placed in its holster.
E.
Frame - The frame serves as a support for all major components and
controls the action of the pistol through the major components. The front
strap of the frame is checkered to ensure a firm grip. The back strap is
formed by the grips which are also checkered. The trigger guard is
extended, recurved and grooved to provide a firm grip when using two
hands or wearing gloves.
F.
Slide Catch Lever - This lever is used to lock the slide open. As a slide
stop it is pressed upward by the magazine follower or the operator's thumb
as the slide travels rearward during recoil or manual operation. The slide
catch lever engages the recess visible on the left side of the slide and is
spring actuated. The slide catch lever spring holds the slide catch lever in
a disengaged (down) position until required.
G. Magazine Catch - The magazine catch holds the magazine firmly in the
frame and can be mounted on either the right or left side of the frame.
Depressing the magazine catch will allow the magazine to drop from the
frame.
2.4
With the weapon loaded and the hammer decocked, a shot can be fired with the
double-action trigger.
Firing. (See Figure 4) By squeezing the trigger the trigger bar is drawn
forward and cocks the hammer. The trigger bar also operates the safety
lever to lift the safety lock. The safety lever draws the sear out of register
with the hammer while the safety lock releases the firing pin. Continued
movement of the trigger causes the trigger bar to release the hammer
which strikes the firing pin and detonates the cartridge primer.
8
Figure 4 Function of the Trigger Assembly
B.
Firing Pin Safety Lock. (See Figure 7) The firing pin is locked in the
slide by the safety lock. When the trigger is pulled, the trigger bar pivots
the safety lever to raise the safety lock and free the firing pin immediately
prior to releasing the hammer. When the trigger is pulled in the singleaction mode, the trigger bar is drawn forward, pivoting the safety lever
which lifts the safety lock to free the firing pin, and moves the sear to
release the hammer. After each shot, the firing pin spring retracts the
firing pin, allowing engagement of the safety lock during each cycle of
operation.
10
Figure 7 Function of the Firing Pin Lock
E.
Locking and Unlocking. (See Figures 8a and 8b) At the instant of firing,
the weapon is locked; the barrel is seated on the upper step of the locking
insert, and is locked into the slide. The blowback action forces the slide
and barrel assembly rearward against the recoil spring. After recoiling
about 1/8 inch, the barrel is cammed down and held by the locking insert.
The slide continues rearward, extracting and ejecting the fired cartridge
case while compressing the recoil spring. The compressed recoil spring
forces the slide forward, stripping a round from the magazine, and
chambering it. The barrel and slide lock together again approximately 1/8
inch before reaching firing position.
2.5
Slide Catch Lever. After firing the last round, the slide is locked to the
rear, in an open position. The follower of the empty magazine raises the
slide stop which engages the slide and locks it to the rear in the open
position. When the slide stop is depressed, the slide is released and
moves forward under recoil spring pressure.
Safety Features
Double-Action Mode - This safety keeps the hammer in an uncocked
condition until the moment of firing. The double-action mode operates as
a passive safety feature in the P226 Combat Pistol. The hammer is left
uncocked until the decision to fire is made. At all times the firing pin is
locked by the firing pin lock until the trigger is pulled. Approximately 12.1
pounds of pressure on the trigger is required to cock and release the
hammer in the DA mode of operation.
B.
C.
Firing Pin Lock - The firing pin lock provides optimal safety with the
hammer in either the cocked or decocked position. The weapon can only
12
A.
be fired by pulling the trigger. The combination of locked firing pin and
positive hammer rebound into the safety intercept notch effectively
preventing accidental discharge of a chambered round even if the weapon
is dropped, the hammer is bumped or if the slide slams forward.
D.
Disconnector Safety - If the slide does not return to the full battery
position due to a weapon, magazine or ammunition malfunction,
connection is not made between the firing pin lock and the safety lock.
Deactivation of the safety lock is automatically prevented. In this
disconnected condition the slide cams down the trigger bar and effectively
interrupts further trigger functions.

16
FWARNING
1. BE SURE OF YOUR TARGET AND OF WHAT'S BEHIND IT! Even a 9mm
projectile can easily penetrate wood or plasterboard walls or a car door and
can travel as far as 1 mile!
2. Ensure that all parts of your hand and body are kept away from the muzzle
of the pistol at all times!
3. Always wear eye and ear protection where possible when firing the pistol.
A. Single-action Mode (Hammer cocked) Affords operator the best and
lightest trigger pull (4.4lbs.) for precise and accurate bullet placement.
1. Aim at the target.
2. Fire the weapon by squeezing the trigger straight to the rear with
gradually increasing pressure.
3. Release the trigger to remain in the single-action mode and ready the
weapon for the next round to be fired.
B. Double-action Mode (Hammer down/uncocked) Provides the operator with
a long, heavy (12.1 lbs.) trigger pull for the first shot only. Subsequent
shots will be fired in single-action mode as the slide will automatically cock
the hammer after each round is fired. The double-action mode of fire is
often the preferred mode of fire when safety during handling and carrying is
of greater concern than first round accuracy.
1. Aim at the target.
2. Fire the weapon by squeezing the trigger straight to the rear with
gradually increasing pressure.
3. Depress the decocking lever to lower the hammer to return to the
double-action mode once firing is complete.
SECTION IV - OPERATION UNDER UNUSUAL CONDITIONS
FNOTE
Unusual conditions are defined as any climatic condition requiring special
maintenance of the pistol. Perform the maintenance outlined for the climate that
most applies to your operational area. Refer to paragraph 3.14 for lubrication
instructions.
FCAUTION
If extensive corrosion is found and cleaning does not solve the problem, notify
organizational maintenance/next repair level.
2.11 Extreme Cold
A. When operating pistol in extremely cold climates, clean and lubricate the
pistol inside at room temperature if possible.
B. Apply a light coat of Lubricant, Automatic Weapons, Arctic (LAW) to all
functional parts.
C. To prevent freezing, keep the pistol covered when moving from a warm to a
cold area. This will allow gradual cooling.
17
B. To help prevent corrosion, remove hand prints with a cloth. Dry and
lubricate the pistol with Cleaner, Lubricant, Preservative (CLP).
C. Check ammunition and magazines frequently for corrosion. Clean the
magazine using CLP and wipe dry with a cloth. If necessary, clean
ammunition with a dry cloth.
D. Always keep mud out of the barrel. If mud should get into the bore, clean it
before firing using a swab and cleaning rod.
2.13 Hot, Dry Climates
A. Dust and sand will get into the pistol and cause malfunctions and excessive
wear on components contact surfaces during firing. Keep the pistol
covered when possible.
B. Corrosion is less likely to form on metal parts in a dry climate. Therefore,
lightly lubricate internal working surfaces only with CLP. Do not lubricate
external parts of the pistol. Wipe any excess lubricant from exposed
surfaces. Do not lubricate internal components of magazine.
2.14 Heavy Rain and Water Operations - All Climates
A. Perform maintenance in accordance with the appropriate climatic
conditions.
B. Always attempt to keep pistol dry.
C. Always try to drain any water from barrel prior to firing. Dry the bore with a
swab and cleaning rod.
18
D. Lightly lube the bore and chamber. Generously lube internal and external
surfaces of the pistol with CLP.
SECTION V - MALFUNCTIONS AND STOPPAGES
2.15 Immediate Action
Immediate Action is the action performed immediately by the firer any time there is an
unscheduled or unanticipated interruption of the pistol's operation when a back-up
weapon is unavailable to transition to. Immediate Action should be practiced to the
point that it occurs as a reflex action.
FWARNING
During Immediate Action, make certain that the pistol is pointed in a safe
direction at all times!
RAP - RAP the magazine on the bottom to ensure magazine is fully seated in weapon.
FWARNING
If a round is assembled without powder (a fault of the manufacturing process),
the primer alone has enough power to propel the projectile into the bore. A
projectile lodged in the bore may cause damage to the barrel and/or the pistol
if another round is fired and could cause personal injury. This event is
commonly called "pop and no kick" or "squib load" and is characterized by a
much reduced report and little or no movement of the slide. An alert operator
should notice the occurrence of this event in time to avoid firing the next
round.
