| 20110107643 | Ergonomic Firearm Fore Grip - The firearm fore grip for use with a firearm having a barrel extending along a bore axis and an attachment rail operatively associated with the barrel and extending along the bore axis. The firearm fore grip comprises a base configured to engage an attachment rail, the base having a leading and a trailing end. A first hand contact surface is configured to extend substantially parallel to the attachment rail from the leading end of the base. A second hand contact surface extends from the first hand contact surface intermediate a leading and trailing ends of the base at an obtuse angle relative to the first hand contact surface. | 05-12-2011 |
| 20110099879 | Rail Cover Panel for a Firearm - A panel system for covering a lengthwise segment of an elongate firearm mounting rail. The panel system comprises at least one pair of identically shaped panel halves. Each panel half comprises a body having a top, a bottom, an abutting proximal edge and a distal edge. At least one axial tongue extends from the abutting proximal edge and a corresponding axial groove having a groove mouth is defined in the body. A cantilevered clip extends from the abutting proximal edge. A clip receptacle is defined by the body. A proximally extending lip extends from the body bottom near the distal edge. Each panel half is configured so that with the abutting proximal edges brought into abutment, each axial tongue of each panel is received in a corresponding axial groove of the other and each cantilevered clip engages the clip receptacle of the other. | 05-05-2011 |
| 20100281736 | Ambidextrous Push-Button Magazine Release for Side-Locking Ammunition Magazines - An ambidextrous magazine release for a firearm is provided for a firearm having a magazine well configured to operatively receive a magazine having a side-locking recess received within the well. The ambidextrous magazine release comprises a linkage moveable between an engaged position and a disengaged position having a lock pin configured to be received in a side-locking recess of a magazine operatively received in the magazine well with the linkage in the engaged position and to clear the side-locking recess with the linkage in the disengaged position. An actuator is provided on the firearm comprising a bar having a opposing push surfaces extending between a right and left side of the firearm. An interface is provided between the linkage and actuator with the interface being configured so that as either of the opposing push surfaces of the bar is pushed by a user, the linkage is moved between the engaged and the disengaged position. | 11-11-2010 |
| 20100218671 | Adjustable and Suppressible Gas Operating System for an Automatic Firearm - A gas operating system for a firearm comprises a gas block defining a cylinder, a discharge gas vent coupled to the cylinder near a proximal end of the cylinder and a discharge gas inlet configured for pneumatic coupling with the barrel of a firearm near the proximal end of the cylinder. A piston in the cylinder is movable from a rest position distal of the discharge gas vent and the discharge gas inlet against the action of a return spring by discharge gas from a barrel of a firearm pneumatically coupled to the discharge gas inlet. A regulator is pneumatically coupled to the discharge gas vent to selectively control the flow of discharge gas from the discharge gas vent to modulate a volume of discharge gas advancing the piston. A diffuser may be provided pneumatically coupled to the regulator for diffusing any audible or visual report. | 09-02-2010 |
| 20090241397 | Rail Cover Panel for a Firearm - A panel system for covering a lengthwise segment of an elongate firearm mounting rail. The firearm mounting rail is a T-rail comprising a T-shaped cross-section with the top of the T corresponding to the top of the T-rail. The firearm T-rail further includes a number of transverse slots in the top spanning the length of the T-shaped cross-section. The panel system comprises at least one pair of identically shaped panel halves. Each panel half comprises a body having a top, a bottom, an abutting proximal edge and a distal edge. At least one axial tongue extends from the abutting proximal edge and a corresponding axial groove is defined in the body, with each axial groove having a groove mouth associated with the abutting proximal edge. A cantilevered clip extends from the abutting proximal edge. A clip receptacle is defined by the body. A proximally extending lip extends from the body bottom near the distal edge. Each panel half is configured so that with the abutting proximal edges brought into abutment, each axial tongue of each panel is received in a corresponding axial groove of the other and the proximally extending lip of the cantilevered clip engages the clip shoulder of the other. | 10-01-2009 |
| 20080236017 | Adjustable Cheek Piece for a Firearm Butt Stock - A firearm butt stock with an adjustable cheek piece comprises an elongate stock base having a top, a bottom, a right side, a left side, a proximal end and a distal end. The stock base has a transverse pivot shaft near the stock base top and a transverse catch shaft spaced from the pivot shaft lengthwise of the stock base near the stock base top. A cheek piece has a proximal end and a distal end and a left and a right sidewall. The cheek piece defines a plurality of lengthwise stacked receptacles opening toward a proximal end of the cheek piece and an elongate hole having a distal and a proximal end spaced lengthwise and distal of the stacked receptacles. The stacked receptacles, the catch shaft, the elongate hole and the pivot shaft are configured so that with the pivot shaft received in the elongate hole and the pivot shaft at the distal end of the elongate hole, the catch shaft is received in one of the stacked receptacles and the cheek piece is prevented from pivoting about the pivot shaft. With the pivot shaft at the proximal end of the elongate hole, the catch shaft clears the opening of the stacked receptacles and the cheek piece can pivot about the pivot shaft. A spring detent is provided in operative association with one of the pivot shaft and the catch shaft. The spring detent prevents relative movement of the pivot shaft and the proximal and distal ends of the elongate hole without application of a lengthwise force to the cheek piece in a desired lengthwise direction of movement sufficient to overcome the spring detent. | 10-02-2008 |
