  • Patent number: 12078437
    Abstract: This disclosure describes a system, and apparatus for securely mounting a firearm, while maintaining to ability to load, unload, and draw the firearm from the mount with a single hand. This is accomplished using a mount that is customized to conform to a specific model of firearm, ensuring a snug fit of the firearm within the mount. Magnetic retention secures the firearm in place in the mount. Modern, magazine fed handguns can be loaded and unloaded simply by moving the slide. Cycling the slide causes it to extract a round from the chamber (if a round is present) when the slide traverses rearward relative to the receiver. A new round is loaded from the magazine when the slide traverses forward relative to the receiver (if a loaded magazine is inserted).
