Abstract: A bore guide for cleaning a firearm has an elongated body defining a bore configured to receive a cleaning rod and brush, the elongated body having a forward end configured to be received in a chamber of the barrel and having a forward aperture to transmit the brush to the barrel bore, the elongated body having a rear end opposite the forward end and defining a rear aperture, a stop adjustably connected to an intermediate portion of the elongated body and movable over a range of different positions along the length of the elongated body, and the stop being adjustable to generate a rearward force against a portion of the firearm, and a forward force by the forward end of the elongated body against the chamber. The elongated body may be externally threaded, and the stop may engage the threads. The stop may extend laterally from the elongated body.

Abstract: A hand held disk thrower consisting of a pivoting extended arm and launching head connected to a gripping handle that allows a wide ratios secondary action. The throwing head and arm section are designed to grip the clay target in a semicircular channeled head that offers some resistance to releasing. The arm is lengthened and arched to create both drag and centrifugal force. The launch head and arm section are attached to the handle by a pivoting joint that allows for free or flopping movement of head arm section. The combination head and launch arm and handle are constructed of a semi-rigid plastic. The thrower is designed to release a spinning disk when swung in an arc by the person grasping the handle.

Abstract: The apparatus includes a motor with a shaft for rotating a fan. A retaining ring and a thrust washer are located around the shaft on one side of the hub of the fan and a torque washer is located on the outer side of the hub with the end of the shaft extending through a central aperture of the torque washer. The retaining ring supports the thrust washer and the thrust washer engages and supports the hub of the fan. The aperture of the torque washer and the side of the shaft at the end thereof have planar surfaces which engage each other which prevents rotation between the torque washer and the shaft. Bosses are formed on the outer side of the hub which fit into apertures formed through the torque washer outward of the central aperture to transfer torque radially outward to the hub. A screw has a threaded shaft extending through the central aperture of the torque washer and which is screwed into a threaded aperture formed in the end of the motor shaft to tighten the torque washer to the hub.
