FIREARM STOCK
Disclosed is an adjustable, sliding stock, and a rifle to which the stock attaches. The stock includes an elongated receiver extension tube coupled to the rifle, and a housing slidably coupled with the receiver extension tube. The housing is positionable at one of a plurality of locking positions that are disposed along a length of the receiver extension tube. The receiver extension tube defines a longitudinal axis along which the housing is positionable. The housing includes a pair of pivoting levers, each of the pair of pivoting levers being disposed on a lateral side of the housing, and where each of the pivoting levers is coupled to and actuates one of a pair of locking members. Each of the pair of locking members travels along a common axis into and out of locking engagement with the receiver extension tube, and where the common axis is transverse to the longitudinal axis.

STABILIZING BRACE ASSEMBLY FOR A FIREARM
Implementations of a stabilizing brace assembly for a firearm are provided. The stabilizing brace assembly is configured for use in attaching a forearm stabilizing brace to a pistol, thereby providing additional stability to a user aiming and firing the pistol. In some implementations, the stabilizing brace assembly is also configured to position an optical sight (e.g., a reflex type sight) so that it can be used to aim the pistol. In some implementations, the stabilizing brace assembly comprises a chassis configured to be secured to a firearm frame and used to position an optical sight over the slide of the firearm, a stabilizing brace secured to the chassis, a removable backs trap assembly configured to further secure the chassis to the firearm frame, and a charging handle that can be used to manually operate the slide of the firearm, or another suitable combination thereof.
AXIALLY OFFSET FOREGRIP FOR A FIREARM AND RELATED DEVICES, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS
An axially offset foregrip assembly for a long gun has a grip portion having a first grip axis, with a middle portion of the grip portion configured to be grasped by a hand of a user about the first grip axis. The foregrip assembly also has a coupling portion for coupling between the middle portion of the grip portion and a fore-end of a long gun. The long gun has a barrel having a longitudinal axis and a rear grip having a second grip axis, which together define a vertical barrel plane. The coupling portion is configured to couple the grip portion to the fore-end of the long gun such that the first grip axis is in a vertical grip plane horizontally offset from the vertical barrel plane, with the vertical grip plane and the first grip axis substantially parallel to the vertical barrel plane.

RIFLE STOCK
A rifle stock has a frame, a body having a butt pad connected to the frame and operable to move within a range of length of pull positions, the frame defining a plurality of pockets, each associated with a different length of pull position, the body defining a latch passage, a latch having a nose, the latch received in the latch passage and movable between a retracted position in which the nose is clear of the pockets and movement of the body is enabled for adjusting, and an extended position in which the nose is received in a selected one of the pockets, a release lever pivotally connected to the frame and operably connected to the latch, and the release lever movable between an operating position in which the latch is in the extended position, and an adjustment position in which the latch is in the retracted position.

FIREARM BRACE
A brace assembly is configured for use with a longitudinal support of a firearm, such as a cylindrical bar or receiver extension. The assembly includes a brace body with a first or lower body member and a second or upper body member. The body members are configured to engage opposite surfaces of the longitudinal support. A brace portion can be attached to the brace body. In one example, a mounting post extends rearwardly from the brace body and the brace portion includes left and right brace members each having an upper end portion configured to attach to and pivot about the mounting post.
