20100199540 | MAGAZINE FIREARM LOCK - A firearm lock that is inserted through the magazine port of a suitable firearm. The firearm lock extends from the magazine port into the bolt compartment of the firearm. The lock blocks the firearm bolt from returning from a retracted position, which may prevent the firearm from being disassembled, preventing circumvention of the lock. The lock may have a projection that can be moved into the magazine release mechanism recess to secure the lock in place. The firearm lock may be unlocked by hand or may require a key or a combination. | 08-12-2010 |
20100275482 | RECOIL SUPPRESSION SYSTEM FOR THE STOCK OF A FIREARM - A recoil suppression system for the stock of a firearm that includes an absorption assembly having an elongated body portion and a generally flat mounting plate having an outer periphery. The recoil suppression system includes a recoil housing with a piston ram, which is received into a cavity of the elongated body when the recoil housing is assembled with the absorption assembly. The mounting plate is generally shaped to fit the rear end of a firearm stock. A rearward projecting flange of the absorption assembly is adapted to fit within the recoil housing. The outer periphery of the mounting plate is equal to or larger than the outer periphery of the recoil housing. The absorption assembly may include a cam and torsion spring to reduce the recoil of the firearm. The recoil suppression system may include an adjustment mechanism to vary the preload force of the torsion spring. | 11-04-2010 |
20100275483 | TORSION SPRING RECOIL SYSTEM FOR THE FOREND OF A FIREARM - A recoil reduction system for use with firearms. The recoil reduction system includes a cam coupled with a torsion spring which can provide resistance to a sliding member of a firearm, thus reducing recoil. The torsion spring and cam can be used as part of a recoil reduction system that is installed in a handgrip or in a forend. Accessories may be attached to the recoil reduction means in order to gain the benefits of recoil reduction. | 11-04-2010 |
20100275484 | RAIL MOUNTED RECOIL SYSTEM FOR THE FOREND OF A FIREARM - A recoil reduction system for use with firearms. The recoil reduction system uses a lever coupled with a spring system and a slide rail to provide reduction of to the recoil of a firearm. The recoil reduction system can be is installed in a handgrip or in a forend. Accessories may be attached to the recoil reduction means in order to gain the benefits of recoil reduction. | 11-04-2010 |
20110099869 | DYNAMIC MAGAZINE LATCH - A dynamic latch to selectively retain a magazine within the magazine port of a long gun. The dynamic latch permits the magazine to be inserted into the magazine port by movement in a single direction eliminating the need to rotate the magazine in order to secure it within the magazine port. The dynamic latch may also eliminate the need to add a magazine well to the receiver of a shotgun or long gun. The dynamic latch may include an outer housing, a piston positioned within the housing, and a spring positioned within the piston. A latch profile on the end of the piston may extend out of an opening in the end of the housing when the spring is in an uncompressed state. The dynamic latch may also be used to connect a tube, such as a magazine tube, to the receiver. | 05-05-2011 |
20110099872 | END STOCK MAGAZINE STORAGE DEVICE - A magazine storage device is disclosed. The magazine storage device is part of an end stock assembly for a long gun and may have a plate that is formed to complement the shape of a magazine. The magazine storage device may secure a magazine in a recess. The magazine may be frictionally secured. The magazine may be flush with the end stock when inserted. | 05-05-2011 |
20110099873 | REVERSABLE RAIL FOR A FIREARM - A mounting rail for a firearm is disclosed. The mounting rail may be a picatinny rail, a weaver rail, or the like, which allows tools such as lights or lasers to be attached to a firearm. The mounting rail is reversible and may be mounted within a portion of the firearm, such as the forend. The other side of the rail may match the finish and texture of the firearm so that the mounting rail is hidden from view when reversed. | 05-05-2011 |
20110099875 | BARREL INSERT - A barrel insert is disclosed. A firearm may use a target barrel or another barrel, such as a standard barrel. The stock of a firearm may have a barrel receptacle that is shaped to hold a larger barrel. The larger barrel may be untapered. The barrel insert may be used to adapt a barrel receptacle to fit a smaller barrel. The smaller barrel may be tapered. The barrel insert may have a texture that substantially matches a texture of the firearm. | 05-05-2011 |
20110099876 | ACCESSORY FOR A FIREARM - A magazine fed shotgun may not use the space within a magazine tube. An accessory, such as a light or a laser, may be inserted into the magazine tube. A switch that operates the accessory may be located on the pump grip of the shotgun. The switch may be connected to the accessory with a wiring harness that may extend through an opening in the tube. The opening may be elongated so that the wiring harness can move with the pump grip when the pump grip is cycled by an operator. | 05-05-2011 |
20120198743 | DYNAMIC LATCH FOR A TUBE MOUNTED MAGAZINE WELL - A dynamic latch to selectively retain a magazine within the magazine port of a long gun. The dynamic latch permits the magazine to be inserted into the magazine port by movement in a single direction eliminating the need to rotate the magazine in order to secure it within the magazine port. The dynamic latch may include an outer housing, a piston positioned within the housing, and a spring positioned between the outer housing and the piston. A latch profile on the end of the piston may extend out of an opening in the end of a magazine well when the spring is in an uncompressed state. | 08-09-2012 |
