Rifle receiver alignment and tensioning system
A rifle having a receiver alignment system includes an upper receiver and a lower receiver configured to engage with each other in an assembled configuration by aligning and pressing an exterior portion of the upper receiver into an interior portion of the lower receiver. A cavity is defined within the interior portion of the lower receiver configured to receive the upper receiver. A lug positioned on the upper receiver defines an alignment groove formed on a lower surface of the lug. A plunger pin is provided in a hole defined within the interior portion of the lower receiver. The plunger pin is configured to engage with the alignment groove and generate a spring-loaded tension when the upper receiver and the lower receiver are engaged in an assembled configuration.
Magazine Conversion System and Magazine Jig
A magazine conversion system mounts within a magazine well of a lower receiver, and includes a front spacer having a wedge-shaped main body with a lower end, and an upper end having a feed ramp extending upwardly therefrom; and a rear spacer having a wedge-shaped main portion with a lower portion and an upper portion having an ejector element extending upwardly therefrom. With the front and rear spacers positioned within the magazine well, at least a portion of the feed ramp and at least part of the ejector element are positioned above the magazine well.
MAGAZINE WITH SPACERS FOR ACCOMMODATING MULTIPLE CALIBER AND/OR LENGTH ROUNDS
A magazine for a firearm can have a housing defining a cavity with a biased follower arranged therein. The magazine may be configured to be received within a magazine well coupled to the receiver of the firearm so that rounds of ammunition stored in the magazine can be fed into the chamber of the firearm. In addition, multiple spacers can be received within the cavity defined by the magazine housing, which spacers may be configured to change or alter a width, dimension, size, and/or configuration of the magazine housing to allow the magazine to store and feed various and/or different caliber, length, size, and/or types of ammunition.

Follower for blank cartridges, unitary/integrated magazine with follower, and methods for manufacturing same
Systems and methods herein relate to a safety magazine for blank ammunition or “blanks”. In one illustrative implementation, a specially-shaped follower is utilized to engage and advance the blank ammunition without jamming, i.e., when holding and feeding blank cartridges into the chamber of a firearm. In other implementations, integrated/unitary magazines including such a follower are disclosed, which also prevent jams otherwise common in the field of magazines converted to handle blank rounds of ammunition. According to such implementations, live ammunition or cartridges are prevented from being loaded into the magazine and a specialized follower that prevents the ammunition form jamming is provided.
