A recoil management system.

This invention relates generally to the field of sporting and leisure activities such as hunting, cycling, and photography. A connector (10) for detachably connecting an object (12) to an article of equipment (14), the connector comprising a base (16) fittable on or to the article of equipment, or integral with the article of equipment, the base including one of a recess and an elongate projection, and the object including the other of a recess and an elongate projection, the connector further including slidable locking means (28) which slides transversely to and engages with the projection when the projection is inserted in the recess, to securely retain the projection within the recess until the slidable locking means is operated by a user to permit removal of the projection from the recess. One of the recess and projection may include cooperating magnetic means which encourages engagement of the projection within the recess.

Disclosed is a gun rack structure that ensures the secure fixation of rifles and long-barreled weapons. More specifically the gun rack is applicable to weapons that are ready to be used at any time, and ensures that they are kept securely by fixing it to a certain place indoors or inside a vehicle. Thanks to the adjustable structure of the gun rack, it can be adapted to different fore-end and barrel structures, after the weapon is placed, it is activated with one move that provides to fix the fore-end or barrel and likewise it is inactivated with one move that provides to disengage the fore-end or barrel. The disclosed gun rack and gun holder assembly give military personnel the practicality they need.

A safety device arrangement for a firearm with a magazine well comprising an insert (3A) adapted to the dimensions and shape of the magazine well and being lockable therein and a rack element (4A) for carrying the firearm, the body of the insert (5A) exposed from the magazine well being adapted in dimensions and shape to fit against the carrier part (17) of the rack element, is characterised in that the carrier part of the rack element is provided with an opening, slot or equivalent (18) and the body of the insert exposed from the magazine well provided with a hollow protrusion (7) adapted to fit to said opening, slot or equivalent and extended through and outside of the carrier part, and on the other hand opening inside the body, and that in the locking mechanism between the insert and the magazine well essential bar or equivalent (9) with its accessories (10, 11, 12) extending inside the insert is implemented to depart from and being lockable in said protrusion. In a preferred embodiment the base part (10) of said bar or equivalent (9) is fitted to pivot in the protrusion (7) and rotate the bar with its accessories between a position locking the insert to the magazine well, and a position releasing the locking, the protrusion and the base part comprising an arrangement (8, 14) for securing the locking position with a lock (22, 23).

A portable gun rest has a gun mount head which includes a rotator housing assembly for azimuth directional control and a platen elevation mechanism for elevation control. The rotator housing assembly has a stator and a rotator. A rotator brake is operated to selectively restrict movement between the rotator and the rotary housing. The platen elevation mechanism has two or more platens which are secured together with a flat bearing located there-between. An elevation brake is selectively adjustable to push the two platens together with different amounts of force providing selectable torque required to move one platen relative to another. The platens have a lattice-like structure for attenuating vibratory motion.

A recoil management system.

A support mount is configured to couple a firearm to a support stand. The support mount includes an attachment member configured to be selectively coupled to the support stand, a first platform coupled relative to the attachment member in a first orientation relative to the attachment member, and a second platform coupled relative to the attachment member in a second orientation. The second orientation is oriented differently than the first orientation of the first platform. The support mount includes an adjustment subassembly operable to move the first platform and the second platform relative to each other. The adjustment subassembly is configured to clamp the firearm to the support mount.

A firearm positioning system and methods of use are provided. The system comprises a first arm segment pivotably engaged to a primary body and a second arm segment pivotably engaged to the first arm segment. The system also comprises a cradle pivotably engaged to the second arm segment. The cradle is configured to support a firearm. The cradle comprises a pair of channels at a first end and a backstop assembly at a second end opposite the first end. The pair of channels are configured to receive a front end of a firearm and the backstop assembly is configured to releasably secure a back end of the firearm to the cradle.

A firearm mount, components thereof, and associated methods. The firearm can be configured for use with an AR-15 style firearm or other type of firearm. The firearm mount is adapted to securely hold the firearm assembly in position for cleaning, maintenance, and/or gunsmithing tasks. The firearm mount can include a lock configured to selectively lock and unlock a firearm assembly thereon.

A weapon retention system may include a base assembly, a first plate coupled to the base assembly, and a second plate coupled to the base assembly, where a distance between the plates while the base assembly is in an open state is greater than a distance between the plates while the base assembly is in a closed state, where the first plate and the second plate are configured to retain the weapon between the first plate and the second plate while the base assembly is in the closed state. The system may further include a linear ratchet coupled to the first plate. The system may also include a pistol grip rest coupled to the first plate, where the pistol grip includes a pin configured to engage the linear ratchet for unidirectional adjustment while the pistol grip rest is in a first state.
