    Abstract: A combat vehicle rescue tool for operating a combat lock to open a door of a combat vehicle by engaging an exterior mechanical rescue coupler includes a handle having a first end extending in to a first forked arm and a second forked arm. A selectable angle end wrench includes a box wrench which is sized to fit an exterior mechanical rescue coupler of a combat vehicle door. A rectangular stem of the end wrench has at least three angled faces on a rectangular stem end opposite to the box wrench. A detent mechanism engages each of the at least three angle faces and the pair of face surfaces to set a predetermined angle of the selectable angle end wrench with respect to a long axis of the handle. A spare fastener pin can be threadingly stored in the end face of the tapered end of the tool.

  • Patent number: 9599438
    Abstract: A removable rail for mounting over an AK iron sight assembly of an AK type rifle includes a pair of brackets that fit outer side surfaces of an AK iron sight assembly. At least one pressure clamp is disposed on a side of at least one bracket of the pair of brackets. When the pressure clamp is in an open position, the pair of brackets can be slid over the AK iron sight assembly for mounting or for removal. When the pressure clamp is in a closed position, the pair of brackets are held in a non-moving engagement with the outer side surfaces of the AK iron sight assembly. A fixed AK rail, another type of AK rail, and a method for adding a small arms accessory rail system to an AK rifle by mounting a rail over an AK iron sight assembly are also described.
