A folding stock with barrel toggle clamp has a body defining a receptacle adapted to receive the action, a clamp mechanism on the body operable to move between a released position and a clamped position, and the clamp mechanism operable to bias the barrel toward the receptacle to secure the barrel to the action. The clamp mechanism may be a multi-link linkage. One of the links may have an adjustable length. The clamp mechanism may include a lever that is flush against an external surface of the stock when in the clamped position. The clamp mechanism may include a V-block defining a channel adapted to receive a protrusion on the receiver and an angled surface on the barrel to clamp the barrel to the receiver. The clamp mechanism may include a lever pivotally connected to the body to pivot on a first horizontal axis lateral to the body.

A balancing device for firearms having at least one barrel and one stock, a front support and a rear support respectively mounted in a region adjacent to the muzzle and in the region of the stock of the firearm; the front support and the rear support are configured to support one or more weight members which are modular and mutually analogous.

A free-floating rifle rail and barrel locking system that provides a barrel assembly and rail assembly, which is detachable from the main body of a rifle without tools. This is advantageous for quick field breakdown and/or rifle modification. The user has the option to disassemble the rifle for easy transport, to change barrel length, to change barrel caliber or change rail configurations. The rails are free-floating, meaning the rails do not come in contact with the barrel and thus do not impact the precision of the rifle.

A frame lug for a firearm having a receiver or barrel hingedly mounted to a frame is provided with a tension post having an external thread that adjustably engages with an internal thread of a vertical bore in the frame lug. The tension post provides a height adjustable top surface upon which the receiver or barrel rests when in a closed position and maintains a tight metal-to-metal connection to improve precision of fitting together the receiver or barrel and the frame. Firearms may have the frame lug installed therein or be retro-fitted with the frame lug. In a retro-fitting method, the firearm's frame lug is removed, a threaded vertical bore is machined at least partially into the frame lug, and an externally threaded tension post is adjustably engaged with the vertical bore such that a top surface of the tension post provides a tight fit with the receiver or barrel.

A firearm includes a receiver, a forearm pivotally attached to a distal end of the receiver, and a barrel having a barrel extension. A proximal end of the barrel and the barrel extension are secured within the forearm such that the barrel and barrel extension are laterally pivotable with the forearm relative to the receiver between a first assembled position and a second folded position. The forearm, barrel, and barrel extension may be secured to the receiver in the first assembled position for use of the firearm, after which the firearm may be folded for storage and/or transportation.
