  • Patent number: 11754369
    Abstract: A weapon light including a head lamp portion, a tubular body portion and an end cap that is releasably coupled to the tubular body. A spacing is defined within the tubular body portion between a battery spring and an end portion. A first member of the end cap includes at least one slot for sliding receipt of at least one guide member of an insert. The tubular body is configured to threadably receive a spacer member that defines a central aperture such that the battery spring extends from the insert and passes through the central aperture into the tubular body portion to make contact with the power source. The spacer member is selectively positioned within the tubular body portion so that the insert may be urged along slot to position the battery spring inside the tubular body to adjust the spacing to fit the power source size.

  • Patent number: 9791232
    Abstract: A trigger reset that is disposed in a firearm handle including an electric motor, a battery, a gear box and cam lobe mounted on a shaft of the motor. A reset bar assembly is secured to the cam lobe. As shaft turns, cam lobe moves to provide a reciprocating motion to reset bar assembly. The reset bar assembly may be biased in lateral directions via a spring or the like. Rearward movement of the firearm trigger causes movement of the reset bar assembly in a rearward longitudinal direction. When the trigger reset is actuated, the motor rotates the cam lobe moving the reset bar assembly in a forward position thereby urging the trigger to a reset position prior to actuating the next firing sequence. The reset trigger system further includes a switch defining a face portion that is positioned on the exterior surface of the grip and immediately below the trigger for easy accessibility when holding or firing the firearm.
