Laser Sensor Stimulator
A laser sensor stimulator integrates laser units, an inertial measurement unit, a control unit, and ergonomic, modular design with GPS data feeds into a portable system that can be used to test energy sensors and warning devices and includes a user interface facilitates tracking and acquisition of items of interest by the laser sensor stimulator.
Clamp with improved retaining structure
An apparatus for engaging equipment to a support includes a member defining a first channel having a first side wall capable of lateral movement with respect to a second side wall suitable for engaging the equipment therebetween. The member defines a pair of surfaces suitable for engaging equipment thereon. A movable member is capable of causing the lateral movement. A substantially compressible member is operably interconnected between the movable member and the first side wall. A pin is selectively raisable with respect to one of the surfaces within a peripheral area defined by the one of the surfaces.
Ar-Type Rifle Lower Receiver With Integrated Grip
An AR-type rifle lower receiver comprises a lower portion having a supplemental opening or recess adjacent the rifle's trigger-guard opening for receiving the middle finger of the user's hand. In addition, a juxtaposed curved boundary surface spaced laterally and rearwardly with respect to the supplemental opening is provided to define a comfortable “grip” bearing surface for the area between the thumb and index finger of the user's hand when the user positions his/her index finger on the rifle's trigger.

Buttstock of a small arm and small arm with such a buttstock
A buttstock of a small arm includes a front connection area for a positive connection to a receiver. In order to permit increased cartridge capacity, a trigger unit with a trigger latch and a transfer element extending forward for connection of the trigger latch to a trigger mechanism arranged in the receiver is positioned on the buttstock.
Fully adjustable gunstock with integrated tool holder
Presented are a firearm attachment and a method. An exemplary firearm attachment includes a gunstock comprising a cavity for attachment to a barrel, a handgrip port including a mount, a buttstock port, and a magazine port, the magazine port located on the gunstock to align with a magazine, the mount operable to slideably move and be affixed along a longitudinal axis of the gunstock. The firearm attachment further includes a handgrip, the handgrip removeably attached to the mount, the handgrip able to rotate relative to the gunstock to a plurality of locations, wherein the handgrip can be rotatably fixed at each one of the plurality of locations. The firearm attachment also includes a buttstock and a forearm grip.
Adjustable, Pivoting Rifle Stock and Method of Use
An adjustable shoulder rest for a rear stock for a rifle or shotgun, with slidable adjustment features at the butt plate to customize the shoulder to firearm interface, providing diverse adjustment options pursuant to user preference and/or circumstances of use. The present invention further provides a pivotal, slidably-adjustable shoulder rest to facilitate customized position adjustment to the firearms orientation vis-a-vis the operator, including the option to provide a swivel connection for adjustment of the firearm during operation, even allowing the user to employ various diverse sights mounted to the firearm for user selection via pivoting the firearm, while maintaining undisturbed engagement of the shoulder rest to the shoulder of the user.
Small arms stabilization system
A self-stabilizing small arm having a barrel assembly rigidly connected to a stock assembly. The small arm includes at least one shooter interface surface and a stabilization assembly controlling the relative position of the shooter interface surface and the barrel assembly or stock assembly. The stabilization assembly includes (i) at least one movement sensor; (ii) at least one actuator; and (iii) a controller using signals from the movement sensor to operate the actuator in order to compensate for unintended movement of the small arm.
Integrated handgun grip and rail
An integrated grip and rail adapter for a handgun includes two side panels having both grip sections that are adapted to form at least portions of the handgun grip and receiver sections that are adapted to extend from the grip sections along the receiver frame of the handgun beyond a trigger guard and beneath a barrel of the handgun. A mounting rail for mounting accessories beneath the barrel of the handgun is formed in the two receiver sections.
Skeletonized grip for an automatic rifle having interchangeable grip panels
A grip for an AR-10 and AR-15 automatic rifle comprises a skeletonized frame that mates with the receiver of the automatic rifle. The skeletonized frame includes a plurality of frame members that interconnect at angles to reinforce the structural integrity of the frame. The skeletonized frame comprises an open area. The open area stores items pertinent to operation of the automatic rifle. The frame is also configured to receive multiple interchangeable grip panels for altering the visual and functional aspects of the grip. The interchangeable grip panels detachably recess into an appropriate section of the frame, such that their edges are protected from damage from inadvertent impact and abrasion. For example, the grip panels provide a texture that helps cushion the palm of the hand, or accommodate left hands and/or right hands. The panels align through an alignment pin that passes through the opening of the frame.
