20230075844 · 2023-03-09 ·

The techniques described herein relate to methods and apparatus for firearm safety mechanisms, visual safety indicators, and related techniques. A firearm includes a handle comprising one or more buttons disposed at least partially within a surface of the handle, such that the one or more buttons can be in contact with an operator's hand when the operator grasps the handle; a safety mechanism in mechanical communication with the trigger. The safety mechanism comprises: a first position that blocks actuation of the trigger; and a second position that does not block actuation of the trigger; and at least one processor configured to: upon determining an input code matches a stored code, transmits a signal to the safety mechanism to change the safety mechanism from the first position to the second position so that the firearm can be fired by the operator.

Compression screw attachment system
11473869 · 2022-10-18 · ·

A compression screw attachment system, including an attachment base having at least one projection, wherein an at least partially internally threaded compression screw recess extends from a terminal surface of the projection; at least one at least partially externally threaded compression screw, rotatable within the compression screw recess between a retracted position and an extended position; and one or more attachment elements, each having an attachment element recess, wherein a compression screw aperture is formed through the recess bottom wall, wherein if the compression screw is in the retracted position, the attachment element recess is slidably mateable with the projection of the attachment base and wherein the compression screw is threadedly rotatable to the extended position, wherein at least a portion of a head portion of the compression screw contacts a surface of the recess bottom wall and provides a force to urge the recess against the projection.

Selective fire firearm systems and methods
11650023 · 2023-05-16 · ·

A selective fire firearm may be provided having a fully automatic open bolt and a semi-automatic closed bolt mode of operation. The firearm may include a trigger group having a trigger prop that ensures that, when the trigger is released in the fully automatic open bolt mode, the bolt carrier stops in an open bolt position held by an open bolt sear. The trigger prop may include a foot that, following a first trigger pull in the fully automatic open bolt mode, slides under and props a rear end of the trigger in a position that allows the open bolt sear to catch the bolt carrier when the trigger is released and propped but prevents the trigger sear from engaging the hammer.
