BOLT CARRIER AND BOLT FOR GAS OPERATED FIREARMS
An improved bolt and bolt carrier with integral gas key having an extension nozzle threadedly secured and pinned to the gas key for use with a direct gas operated firearm is provided. The extension nozzle is designed to receive a portion of the host firearms gas operating system. The firing pin retaining pin is oriented so as to expose its widest profile to the firing pins annular flange, increasing its service life. The bolt has a plurality of lugs extending from its forward end and an extractor recess. The extractor recess is constructed to accommodate an enlarged extractor claw while not undercutting the bolt lugs adjacent thereto. The extractor engages approximately 57% more of a seated ammunition cartridges rim as compared to some prior art AR15/M16 type extractors used with automatic firearms chambered in 6.8 SPC. The result is an improved bolt and bolt carrier which provides for increased operational reliability.
SYSTEM FOR A MULTI-CALIBER SELF-LOADING ACTION ASSEMBLY
System for a multi-caliber self-loading action. Specifically, the system is comprised of a multi-position locking assembly and a self-regulating gas assembly. The multiposition locking assembly is comprised of a bolt carrier, a spring, a bolt, a lock, and a cam assembly. The cam assembly will interface between the bolt carrier and the bolt to rotate the bolt through the bolt carrier. The lock will interface with the bolt, to lock the bolt in at least one locked position based on the caliber of the round inserted. The self-regulating gas assembly directs gas from the gas regulation to at least one piston cup, which will then cause the piston to act on the multi-position locking assembly.
