Abstract: A firearm mount is provided including an upper handguard configured to extend above a cocking lever housing of a firearm and a receiver shroud extending rearward from the upper handguard and integrally formed with the upper handguard to form a single piece guard. The upper handguard can define a cocking lever slot and the receiver shroud can define an ejection port recess rearward of the slot. The receiver shroud can include a mounting rail, such as a picatinny rail, and opposing lateral sidewalls extending downward from the rail. The receiver shroud can simultaneously extend above a firearm receiver as the upper handguard extends above a cocking lever housing to cover an upper surface of the firearm. The guard can be secured to the firearm with opposing plugs having claws that engage ledges of the receiver to clamp the guard to the firearm. A related method of use is provided.

Abstract: A multi-distance ranging reticle for an optical device is provided. The reticle can include a primary vertical crosshair transverse to a primary horizontal crosshair, a secondary horizontal crosshair having a first vertical marking and a second vertical marking, separated by a distance, the secondary horizontal crosshair corresponding to a first range. A first object having a first known width can be placed between the first and second vertical markings to estimate a first estimated range to the first object. An assortment of other vertical markings can be disposed along the secondary horizontal cross hair, and/or other additional horizontal crosshairs and separated by other distances corresponding to other known widths of other objects. By selectively framing an object of a known width between certain vertical markings along a particular horizontal crosshair, a user can quickly and efficiently estimate range of the object. A related method of use is provided.

Abstract: An accessory mount for removably attaching an accessory to a firearm rail includes a base having a mounting rail, a lock block moveable in a recess of the base and a throw lever, which when activated, allows springs to move the lock block in the recess so the lock block disengages the firearm rail in an open mode. The thumb lever also can engage the lock block to a closed mode in which it clamps the mount to the firearm rail in a fixed position relative to the firearm. An accessory thus can be firmly, consistently and securely mounted relative to the firearm with the mount. The thumb lever can be joined with a threaded shaft that engages a threaded element, for example, a keps nut, associated with the lock block. A toggle lock can selectively engage notches in the threaded element to set the overall clamping force of the lock block and mount on the firearm rail.

Abstract: A scope alignment assembly is provided that can automatically level a scope. The assembly can include a base defining a hole and including a first scope ring, a spring in the hole, and a detent in the hole, the detent urged toward the scope. The scope mount can include a registration element disposed on a lower portion of the scope, distal from a turret assembly. The detent and/or registration element can be operable in a transition mode in which the detent moves along a scope surface while the scope is rotated about an axis of rotation, and a levelling mode in which the detent is configured to register with the registration element to provide at least one of a visual feedback, an audible feedback and a tactile feedback to indicate the scope is level relative to the base. A related method of use also is provided.

Abstract: A stock mount assembly, which mounts a stock to a weapon, can include a base block including a longitudinal axis separating a first side and an opposing second side; a first lateral wedge opposing a second lateral wedge; a locking block slidably engaging the first lateral wedge and the second lateral wedge at a plurality of facets angled relative to one another; and a fastener aligned with the longitudinal axis. Rotation of the fastener can displace the locking block relative to the base block to urge the first lateral wedge and the second lateral wedge away from one another to forcibly engage first and second side surfaces of a cavity within the firearm to secure a stock to the firearm with the assembly. A related method of use is provided.

Abstract: A stock assembly and related method are provided. The stock assembly can include a base that can be joined with a weapon and a butt portion that movably extends from the base so the stock assembly can be adjusted in length. The stock can include an adjustment limiter configured to stop extension of the butt portion at a predetermined length, which can be set by a user to fit their stature. The butt portion can include a longitudinal axis and a limiter surface offset at an angle relative to the axis. The adjustment limiter can be a wedge that wedges against the limiter surface to set the stock assembly at the predetermined length, thereby automatically setting that length in a consistent and repeatable manner. A lock, separate from the adjustment limiter, can selectively lock the butt portion in a fixed position as or after the stock assembly attains the predetermined length.

Abstract: A base detachably joined with a support pod, which supports a weapon in a firing position, is provided with finely tuned length adjustability. The base can include a quick detach first connector joined with a lower end of a leg of a support pod, a threaded core post having a shaft, and an actuator sleeve threadably and rotatably engaged with the core post to extend and/or retract the core post, and thereby adjust a length of the base. The base can include a locking ring rotatable to move along the threaded portion, the locking ring configured to selectively engage the actuator sleeve and prevent the actuator sleeve from rotating, to thereby set the length of the base at a fixed length. A related method of use is provided.

Abstract: A support pod that supports a weapon in a firing position includes a support tube telescopingly joined with a leg having a longitudinal axis. A lock portion defines grooves downwardly angled relative to the longitudinal axis. A guide portion defines recesses downwardly angled relative to the axis. The recesses can be distal and separate from the grooves, and both optionally are downwardly spiraling. The leg is operable in a locked mode, in which a lock element is in a groove, and a guide element is in a corresponding recess, to set a first overall length of the support. The leg can operate in an adjustment mode in which the lock and guide element can transition out from the groove and recess, and can move to other respective grooves and recesses chosen by a user to set the pod at another overall length. A related method of use is provided.
