METHOD AND MECHANISM FOR INTERACTIVELY GOVERNING TRIGGER MOVEMENT AND REGULATING THE CYCLIC FIRING RATE OF FIREARMS
A controlling device and methodology for firearms interfacing the trigger mechanism, trigger finger, and the innermost and/or upper-innermost region of the firing hand as a means to adaptively govern incremental trigger movement and variable trigger pull force in order to accurately discharge a singular round of ammunition and, in alternative method, adaptively regulate and govern a variable cyclic firing ratio and sequential discharge rate. In use, coinciding contraction of the firing hand and trigger finger bring the controller device in concert with the trigger and innermost region of the firing hand thereby effectively isolating the controller with uniformly balanced isometric tension. Trigger movement and trigger pull force being regulated incrementally by utilization of variable isometric tension applied to the controller between the trigger finger, trigger, and the innermost region of the firing hand.
PROJECTILES LAUNCH ACCESSIBILITY TO USERS WITH UPPER LIMB PROSTHESES USING ASSISTIVE HANDLING TECHNOLOGY AND METHODS
Apparatus, tools, and methods intended as assistive apparatus for toy projectile launching from a launcher having an outer housing with a rearward stock portion, a grip/handle portion forward of the stock portion, an opening for a projectile magazine and a forward muzzle portion. A projectile magazine connects to the outer housing through the opening. An energy source mounted in the outer housing for launching a dart, with a power/rev trigger mounted to the outer housing for activating the energy source, and a launch trigger for causing dart launching. A bracket mounts to the grip, with a clamp/clamping mechanism for securing the bracket to the grip. First panel and second panel mechanisms mount to the bracket to trigger activating, launch, and magazine release structures.
Pivoting carbine conversion assembly
An assembly (10) includes a forward unit (12) including a mounting portion (16) for mounting thereon a firearm, the forward unit (12) defining a projectile shooting axis (20), and a rearward unit (14) coupled to the forward unit (12). The rearward unit (14) includes a retractable buttstock (24) that has a retracted position and an extended position. In the extended position the rearward unit (14) is pivotable with respect to the forward unit (12) about a pivot axis (26) which is tilted relative to the projectile shooting axis (20).

Firearm trigger finger reset
A trigger reset that is disposed in a firearm handle including an electric motor, a battery, a gear box and cam lobe mounted on a shaft of the motor. A reset bar assembly is secured to the cam lobe. As shaft turns, cam lobe moves to provide a reciprocating motion to reset bar assembly. The reset bar assembly may be biased in lateral directions via a spring or the like. Rearward movement of the firearm trigger causes movement of the reset bar assembly in a rearward longitudinal direction. When the trigger reset is actuated, the motor rotates the cam lobe moving the reset bar assembly in a forward position thereby urging the trigger to a reset position prior to actuating the next firing sequence. The reset trigger system further includes a switch defining a face portion that is positioned on the exterior surface of the grip and immediately below the trigger for easy accessibility when holding or firing the firearm.

TARGET SHOOTING
A system for firearm target shooting monitoring, training, and feedback includes a camera directed at the aiming point of a firearm or a firearm training device. Embodiments include a trigger sensor and a laser emitter aimed at the aiming point of the firearm or firearm training device. A computer module can analyze video captured by the camera and determine if the firearm or firearm training device was aimed at a target region at the time of a trigger pull. User performance can be monitored, recorded, tracked, and reported to the user. Training and instruction modules can provide directed instruction and training exercises for a user to work on particular skills for which the user desires to raise proficiency.
Firearm
The invention relates to a firearm, in particular for shooting cartridge ammunition, having at least one weapon chassis 3, a weapon system support 4, and a weapon system apparatus 5; at least the weapon chassis 3 and the weapon system support 4 have corresponding engagement means 10 provided in spacing patterns via which they can be axially positioned differently relative to each other.

Bullpup stock assembly with break barrel gun
A special stock assembly for break barrel air guns includes a bullpup stock assembly which allows a break barrel air gun to normally break without requiring any modification to the cylinder, or cocking mechanism. The invention can include the mechanical components of a break barrel air rifle as part of an original manufacture with the gun by moving the trigger assembly forward, or as an after market retrofit to an existing gun, in which case a cable linkage is provided between the in situ OEM trigger assembly and an additional trigger pull provided with the bullpup stock assembly. The cable linkage connects a forward trigger assembly to the OEM trigger and can have a 1:1 ratio of trigger movement between the forward trigger pull and the OEM trigger, or another ratio as determined by the linkage elements. The forward trigger assembly can be purely mechanical, or incorporate a servo and/or solenoid with a power source such as a battery to augment trigger pull by a trigger finger.
