Abstract: The present disclosure describes a foldable firearm that collapses into a folded state under spring pressure. The foldable firearm may include a foldable grip assembly. The foldable grip assembly may include a foldable pistol grip, a foldable trigger assembly, a folding bar, and a foldable hand stop. The foldable grip assembly may fold into the top shell of the foldable firearm. The foldable firearm may also include an ambidextrous charging handle assembly that may include a bottom portion, a top portion, a guide bar, and two opposing charging handles. The charging handles may be pulled to unfold the foldable firearm, and/or butterflied such that pivoting one charging handle causes the other charging handle to pivot. The first-pivoted charging handle may then be pulled rearwards to unfold the firearm. The first-pivoted charging handle may then be pulled further rearwards to rack the slide of the foldable firearm.

Abstract: A stock assembly for a takedown firearm and related methods are disclosed. The stock assembly has a buttstock assembly, and a forend assembly removably couplable to the buttstock assembly at a first location and a second location. When the forend assembly is coupled to the buttstock at the first location, the forend assembly is positioned to support a barrel of the firearm in a longitudinal firing position. When the forend assembly is coupled to the buttstock at the second location, the forend assembly is positioned to support the barrel at an angle relative to the longitudinal firing position.

Abstract: A quick detach mount and method are disclosed. The mount includes an accessory receiving portion shaped to receive a quick detach interface, and a first arm extending from the accessory receiving portion. The quick detach mount is shaped to receive a first fastener and a second fastener, whereby the quick detach mount is shaped distribute a force from the accessory receiving portion.

Abstract: An accessory mounting interface for a firearm, and a related method, are disclosed. The interface has a firearm accessory, a first elongated fastener, and a second fastener rotationally mated to the first elongated fastener. The first elongated fastener has right-handed threading and is arranged through a through hole in the firearm accessory with a first end extending below first and second halves of a first slot protrusion of the firearm accessory. The second fastener has a length greater than a width, the length measured along a longitudinal axis of the second fastener, the second fastener having a plurality of straight edges. At least one of the plurality of straight edges prevents the second fastener from rotating further than a closed position when the at least one of the straight edges abuts a sidewall of an elongated slot in the firearm.

Abstract: The present invention is an ammunition magazine, preferably made of a reinforced polymer, utilizing a structurally enhancing ridge, angular guide rails and a follower made to interface with said guide rails to reduce wobble. The preferred embodiment also features a protective cover that distributes forces from the spring to more structurally sound areas of the magazine, thus reducing feed end splay, and an ammunition indication system comprised of at least one window and a noticeable marker on the follower spring. The follower and magazine casing are also designed to interface to prevent the follower from popping out of the feed end and the floor plate of the magazine utilizes a locking plate and sliding relationship between the floor plate, locking plate and magazine to secure the floor plate onto the magazine casing. The cover features built in tools for, among other things, unloading and disassembling the magazine.

Abstract: A firearm and related methods and components are disclosed. The firearm has a chassis, a stock portion coupled to the chassis, and a pair of interchangeable plates removably coupled to the chassis. Each of the pair of interchangeable plates is attachable to the chassis at a first location and a second location opposing the first location. A first one of the pair of interchangeable plates has a recess for receiving a portion of a bolt handle. A second one of the pair of interchangeable plates has a firearm tool interface.

Abstract: An accessory mounting interface and method are disclosed. The interface has an upper portion having a firearm accessory and at least one through hole extending from a first surface to a second surface of the upper portion, the upper portion having a first post portion with a first side surface and a first flange. A first elongated fastener is arranged through the through hole and has a first end extending below the second surface of the upper portion. The interface also has a second post portion that is movable between a first configuration defining a first transverse distance between the first and second side surfaces and a second configuration defining a second transverse distance between the first and second side surfaces, the first transverse distance greater than the second transverse distance. The first flange substantially opposes the second flange when the second post portion is in the first configuration.

Abstract: A firearm barrel tray having a barrel channel and a firearm accessory mounting interface, wherein the firearm barrel tray is configured to be attached to a firearm stock such that the barrel channel sits on a first side of the firearm stock and the firearm accessory mounting interface is configured to align with a recess on a second side of the firearm stock.

Abstract: A firearm accessory mount for a take-down rifle is disclosed. The mount has a first portion having an accessory interface, and a second portion opposing the first portion. The second portion has a locking block with a proximal end and a distal end. The proximal end is shaped and positioned to engage a receiver assembly of the take-down rifle. At least one of the first portion or the second portion has a barrel engagement surface. A related method is also disclosed.

Abstract: A lock system and related methods are disclosed. The lock mechanism has a lock plate configured to be positioned adjacent the distal side of a firearm floor plate. The lock plate has a base plate and a disengagement mechanism affixed to a proximal side of the base plate. The disengagement mechanism has a protrusion configured to extend into the passage of the floor plate when the floor plate and the lock plate abut one another. The protrusion has a first portion and a second portion. The first portion is shaped to extend into the passage of the floor plate. The second portion is shaped to extend through the passage of the floor plate and protrude from the proximal side of the floor plate.
