  • Recoil absorber and redirector mechanism for gun stock
    Patent number: 5979098
    Abstract: An improved recoil absorber and redirector mechanism for a shoulder held gun stock which reduces the effects of recoil by causing one of two normally aligned members mounted on the butt end of a gun stock to move laterally of the other under recoil thereby redirecting the forces of recoil with the movable member resiliently absorbing most of and/or delay the recoil energy which is later used to reset the mechanism to its normal inactive position.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 22, 1998
    Date of Patent: November 9, 1999
    Inventor: Jay P. Griggs
  • Adjustable mounting device for recoil absorbers and redirect mechanisms
    Patent number: 5001855
    Abstract: A device for adjustably mounting a recoil absorber on the butt stock end of a gun so that the recoil absorber can be adjustably moved up and down, crosswise, rotationally or at an angle on the stock or readily transferred to another stock with ease and in a short period of time.
