  • Furniture structure providing weapon delivery system
    Patent number: 9560918
    Abstract: A weapon delivery system includes a vertical structure defining an opening and a hidden compartment above the opening, and a delivery structure pivoted to a bottom of the vertical structure that when in a closed position generally covers the opening. The delivery structure includes a horizontal top member adapted to support a long gun in a known orientation in the hidden compartment and, when the delivery structure is moved to an open position, causes the long gun to be dropped onto the hands of the person in the known orientation. This allows the person to immediately grasp the long gun in a manner ready to deal with an intruder or danger. The illustrated system is a bed headboard positioned so that a person sleeping on the bed can reach up, press the delivery structure, and drop the long gun into their waiting hands.
