Publication number: 20240344803Abstract: A buffer tube for a firearm can include a body defining an interior cavity for receiving a buffer spring and a rail disposed on and/or formed from the outer surface of the body. The rail can include one or more pin holes configured to receive a pin of a stock to lock the stock in a position. The buffer tube can also include a slide bar channel defined through at least a portion of the rail and configured to allow a slide bar to slide therein relative to the one or more pin holes to urge a pin out of a respective pin hole and/or to block a pin from being received by the pin holes.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 22, 2024Publication date: October 17, 2024Applicant: Vantac Technologies LLC.Inventor: Joede Thomas Vanek

Patent number: 11740041Abstract: A buffer tube for a firearm can include a body defining an interior cavity for receiving a buffer spring, and a rail disposed on and/or formed from the outer surface of the body. The rail can include one or more pin holes configured to receive a pin of a stock to lock the stock in a position, and a trunk opening defined at an end of the rail forming a first rail sidewall and second rail sidewall configured to receive a trunk of an actuator. The first and/or second rail sidewalls can include a slot defined therethrough configured to receive a pin associated with the trunk of the actuator to linearly guide the actuator. The rail can include a slide bar channel defined through at least a portion of the rail and configured to allow a slide bar to slide therein relative to the one or more pin holes to urge a pin out of a respective pin hole and/or to block a pin from being received by the pin holes.Type: GrantFiled: June 13, 2022Date of Patent: August 29, 2023Assignee: Vantac Technologies LLCInventor: Joede Thomas Vanek

Patent number: 11499794Abstract: An adjustable stock system for a firearm can include a buttstock slider configured to be slidably attached to the firearm for moving relative to the firearm between a collapsed position and at least one extended position. The buttstock slider can include a plurality of buttstock grooves defined therein. The system can include a lower stock assembly that is configured to mount to a firearm and a latch assembly disposed within the lower stock assembly. The latch assembly is configured to be moveable between a latched position where the buttstock slider cannot slide relative to the firearm and an unlatched position where the buttstock slider is free to slide relative to the firearm. The latch assembly can include at least one latch tooth configured to mate with the plurality of buttstock slider grooves when the latch assembly is in the latched position. The latch assembly is biased to the latched position.Type: GrantFiled: February 23, 2021Date of Patent: November 15, 2022Assignee: Vantac Technologies, LLCInventors: Joede Thomas Vanek, Bret Pitman
