UNJAMMING MULTITOOL FOR FIREARMS
An unjamming multitool for use with a firearm, including a housing having opposing parallel side plates joined at an edge and having a first end and an opposing second end, and defining a cavity therebetween. A first pivot post and a second pivot post are carried at the first and second ends of the housing. An extractor assembly is pivotally coupled to the first end of the housing by the first pivot post and movable between a stored position adjacent the housing and a deployed position wherein the extractor assembly is pivoted outwardly from the housing about the first pivot post to a stop. A bolt over-ride claw coupled to the opposing second end of the housing by the second pivot post, and movable between a stored position generally within the cavity of the housing and a deployed position pivoted outwardly from the cavity to a 90 degree stop. A collapsible range rod movable between a stored position against one of the opposing parallel side plates and a deployed position extending from the one of the opposing parallel side plates.
Methods for solid state metal repair
A system and method for solid state metal plate repair is provided. A solid state metal plate repair system may comprise a drill, a cutter and a plug. The plug may be configured to fill a void created by the cutter. The plug may also be configured to create a metallurgical bond with the metal plate during a repair operation. The plug may also be configured to shear from the drill (e.g., drive motor) when an expected rise in torque indicates a sufficient bond has been achieved in the repair. The systems and methods described herein may be used on specialty alloys wherein other repair methods are undesirable.

Cleaning device for paintball equipment
Among other things, there is disclosed a cylindrical device which is used to remove broken paintballs and other unwanted material from the barrel of a paintball marker or from other paintball equipment. Cylindrical cleaning devices currently known in the art are prone to separation and failure after use. The present disclosure includes structure such as barbs and/or openings, a snap-fit sleeve element, and/or one or more spacers to limit or prevent such failure. Structure for cleaning, including squeegee elements movable between an insertion configuration and a cleaning configuration, and other materials and configurations, are also disclosed.

APPARATUS FOR FIELD MAINTENANCE OF JAMMED FIREARMS
Elements of the present invention relate to the application of force to a bolt carrier within a firearm when the firearm becomes inoperable. Some elements relate to the application of force by leverage applied with a bar inserted through a weapon's magazine well. Some elements relate to a bar end with prongs that provide for clearance of a weapon's bolt shaft while engaging the weapon's bolt carrier. Some elements relate to accommodation of multiple weapon dimensions with a single tool.
Rocket Extraction Device and Method
A rocket extraction device and method is disclosed. In one embodiment, the device comprises an upper and a lower casing; an interior cutout in each of the upper and lower casings, the interior cutouts having contours matching exterior surface contours of a rocket fuze; an upper fuze clamp and a lower fuze clamp disposed respectively within the upper and lower casings, each upper and lower fuze clamp having interior surface contours matching exterior surface contours of the rocket fuze; a clamp adjustment screw onto which the upper fuze clamp is mountable; an adjustment wheel mountable at the exterior end of the clamp adjustment screw by which the clamp adjustment screw and the upper fuse clamp are movable to secure the upper and lower fuze clamps to the fuze and force the fuze into the contours of the lower fuze clamp and the interior cutout of the lower casing to lock the fuze into the rocket extraction device. There is an eyebolt or similar type device mountable to the exterior of the rocket extraction device, to which force is applied to remove a rocket from a storage tube. In another embodiment, the method comprises attaching the rocket extraction device securely to a fuze on a rocket and pulling on the rocket extraction device to remove the rocket from a storage tube.
