Abstract: A carrier bolt assembly that is configured to provide an electrical charge to execute the firing of a round of ammunition. The carrier bolt assembly includes a carrier that includes a bore substantially therethrough. Further present is a void adjacent to the bore. A conductive rod is mateably formed to be operably coupled and fixedly secured within the bore and void. The conductive rod includes an outer layer and an inner layer wherein the inner layer is configured to conduct an electric current through the conductive rod. The conductive rod includes a second section contiguous with a first section and further includes a mounting block. The mounting block has a knob formed thereon that is operably coupled with the inner layer of the conductive rod. The carrier bolt assembly further includes an extractor pin that includes a tapered shaped wherein the extractor pin is tapered towards the midsection.

Abstract: A valve includes a valve body (100) disposable within a chamber (103) of a housing (101) and capable of being fluidly sealed with respect to the housing (101) when the valve is closed. At least one radial passage (117) is disposed in the valve body (100). At least one axial passage (119) is disposed in the valve body (100) in fluid communication with the at least one radial passage (117). When the valve at least partially opens, a fluid path opens between the valve body (100) and the housing (101), which fluid path (301) in is fluid communication with the at least one radial passage (117), and fluid from within the housing (101) is capable of passing out of the at least one axial passage (119).
