Abstract: A remote trigger activation system for a firearm secured in a shooting rest includes a trigger-activation mechanism mountable to the rest or directly to the firearm and a remote manual trigger assembly coupled via flexible push-pull cable. The activation mechanism employs a cam or gear train configured with approximately 1:1 mechanical advantage to depress the firearm trigger while preserving tactile “pull” and “break” feel. A safety interlock biases the mechanism to a non-engaged state and includes a removable pin to block actuation in safe mode. Toolless, multi-axis adjustments (height, lateral offset, and fore-aft) and universal interfaces accommodate diverse platforms. A shooting rest stabilizer may include a base plate that captures a rear rest leg and three elongate, preloaded supports clamped to fixed supports or a unitary mount (ground, bench, truck bed, or hitch), reducing rest displacement during firing. Optional sensors measure trigger and recoil dynamics for testing and QA/QC.

Abstract: A shooting rest stabilizer is configured to resist movement of a shooting rest in response to firing of a firearm or weapon supported by the shooting rest. The shooting rest stabilizer includes a base plate having an orifice to receive an adjustment bolt/leg of a shooting rest, a back mounting block engageable to a back support, a front right mounting block engageable to a front right support, and a front left mounting block engageable to a front left support. The supports are securable to a stationary base surface. A front lateral fixture is couplable between the front right and front left supports to receive front legs of the shooting rest. Back, front right, and front left elongate supports are attached between the base plate and respective mounting blocks. The shooting rest stabilizer. A unitary mount support platform includes at least the back, front right, and front left supports.

Abstract: A system and method for measuring, characterizing, and making recommendations for improving the performance of a shooter and one or more associated firearms. A data collection environment comprises an operator device and a server and data management module configured to receive and transmit one or more data sets over a network. A rig, which may be configured with sensors, may comprise a base assembly, a stock assembly, a grip/trigger assembly, a forend assembly a remote trigger assembly, and a safety lanyard assembly.
