  • Patent number: 5584136
    Abstract: A firearm skirt/magazine assembly used for safe insertion within a stock of a firearm when the stock is shorter in length than the magazine incorporates a skirt having an open end and a curved end wherein the curved end defines a generally curved upraised portion and the open end is shaped to correspond to the exterior cross-section of the magazine, so that the skirt may fit/snugly around the magazine. In use, when the skirt/magazine assembly is inserted into the stock of the handgun, the upraised portion abuts against a bottom end of the stock thereby preventing the firearm's interworking parts from being damaged by over-insertion of the magazine.
