Abstract: Two-piece assembly which clamps to the frame of a hacksaw forward of and adjacent the handle and has two protective wing shields extending laterally outward from the hacksaw in front of the operator's hand. The wing shields may be integral with a hand and finger grip plastic mating portion attached to the handle of the hacksaw, or be separate and attached by bolts and nuts to the hacksaw frame forward of the handle.

Abstract: A lockable restraining device in a holster has a rigid body portion and two upwardly extending oppositely facing wall members forming a channel therebetween to receive a handgun trigger guard, a pivotable cam member in at least one wall member having two lobes; a first lobe being pivotable to extend inwardly of the channel when the holster is empty and being pivotable outwardly of the channel when the trigger guard of the handgun is seated in the channel; and a second lobe being pivoted outwardly of the channel when the holster is empty and being pivotable inwardly of the trigger guard when the gun is seated in the holster; and a locking means engagable with the cam to prevent it being pivoted and a finger operable member to unlock the locking means.

Abstract: A holster for a magazine of an automatic pistol, the magazine being slid into a carrier box that slides longitudinally in the elongated rectangular pouch with a flexible flap cover having a snap fastener to attach the cover to the pouch; the carrier being biased by a coil spring urging the carrier upward to expose the magazine which is contacted by the cover to prevent the magazine from removal until it is handled by the wearer.

Abstract: A restraining device in a holster has a rigid body portion and two upwardly extending oppositely facing wall members with a cavity in each and forming a channel receiving a handgun trigger guard, a pair of cam-shaped restraining members having two lobes and a pivot pin therebetween for movement on generally parallel axes within respective cavities. One lobe is spring biased to extend inwardly of channel when empty and pushed outwardly of channel when such guard is seated in channel; and the other lobe is retracted into its cavity when empty so trigger guard may pass between opposed lobes and extend inwardly of such guard when seated in channel. Forward handgun dislodgment is prevented and a vertical draw is needed when such pins are generally horizontal to overcome frictional handgun-holster contact to remove handgun above partially closed lower front. Restraining members, being caged within cavities, provide enhanced strength from handgun removal in the forward direction.

Abstract: Handgun holster having a restraining device inside the holster for retaining the handgun in the holster and inhibiting inadvertent removal from the holster, the restraining device comprising a rigid body with two parallel spaced flexible fins extending upward from the body, each fin having a pyramidal boss projecting outwardly toward the other fin and boss, the bosses being spaced apart from each other and the fins being adapted to be pushed apart by the trigger guard of a handgun bieng inserted into the holster and thereafter returning to the unflexed position with the bosses inside the trigger guard and being shaped to resist flexing outwardly when the handgun is pulled upwardly.

Abstract: A mechanism including a thumb operated pivotable lever mounted on the side of an automatic piston grip to release the magazine; the lever including an inclined plane which engages a roller on the end of a magazine catch rod and causes the rod to slide inwardly of the handle grip portion to release the magazine; the magazine catch rod being spring biased to urge the roller outwardly toward the inclined plane of the lever.

Abstract: The organizer includes a molded holster for a hand tool having a piston grip, the holster having a supporting strap for suspending the holster from the waist belt of the wearer at a selected distance below the waist belt. The organizer also has a leg encircling strap to hold the holster snugly against the leg, and having optional attachments for holding a chuck key, a plurality of tool bits, a tool or nail bag, or several boxes of fasteners.
