The present invention provides a pistol with a frame having a rear grip, a trigger facility forward of the grip and an upper surface. An elongated slide is connected to the frame and operable to reciprocate along the upper surface. The frame defines a rear recess open at the upper surface. An insert is included having a major portion removably received in the rear recess and having a frame rail extending from the major portion above the upper surface. The frame rail is adapted to connect with the slide to constrain reciprocation.

A firearm includes a frame assembly, a slide assembly releasably and slidably coupled to the frame assembly, a bolt assembly including a leading surface, a firing pin, and an adjuster. The adjuster includes a body and an extension. The body defines a first bore, defines a leading surface, and has a thickness. The leading surface is configured to interface with a rear portion of a cartridge, and the body spaces the leading surface from the leading surface of the bolt assembly. The extension couples the body to the bolt assembly and defines a second bore that shares a common central axis with the first bore. The first bore and the second bore receive the firing pin such that the firing pin at least selectively protrudes from the leading surface of the adjuster to engage the cartridge.

A receiver assembly for a rifle includes a receiver with a feed assembly configured for open-bolt operation. A feed cover is hingedly mounted to the receiver and includes a portion of the feed assembly, where the feed cover is movable between a closed position and an open position by pivoting about a hinge pin oriented along a longitudinal axis of the receiver. For example, the feed cover can pivot to one side of the receiver when in the open position. A rifle incorporating the receiver assembly is also disclosed.

A firearm frame locking system locks a two-part firearm frame. This is achieved by a firearm frame locking system that includes an upper frame and a lower frame that slide into each other by means of projections that fit into grooves in both the upper frame and the lower frame. In the lower frame, a double-arm lever is located along the longitudinal axis of the firearm. One arm of the double-arm lever extends at least partially into/through a vertical hole in a horizontal rib of the lower frame. A second arm of the double-arm lever ends in the opposite position to a projection in the upper frame. A spring is placed between the horizontal arm and the rib.

The present embodiments disclose a handguard for a roller-delayed firearm. The handguard includes a rail extending between a first end and a second end defining a length of a handguard and a tubular portion extending at least partially along the length of the roller delayed firearm. The tubular portion is configured to releasably engage with a male mating portion of a roller-delayed firearm. A clamp selectively secures the female mating portion of the tubular portion to the male mating portion of the receiver.

A takedown pin system may be used for the processes of securing, semi-securing, and/or un-securing the rear connection points of firearm lower and upper receivers, for example, of an AR-15, with an option to maintain axial engagement of the pin to the receivers throughout two or more of the processes. An enhanced pin detent track allows pin rotation when axially-engaged in the receivers. A narrow pin body portion, for example, a recessed side surface portion or a narrow flange, cooperates with the pin hole and/or a slot in an upper receiver rear knuckle. Rotating the pin may locate the recess or flange to make room between the pin and the inner surface(s) of the upper receiver pin hole so the upper receiver can pivot slightly open from the lower receiver. A slot at the bottom of the rear knuckle hole may receive a flange of the takedown pin.
