Abstract: Described herein is an integrated feed ramp for a shotgun, methods for making same, and methods of retrofitting existing firearms, wherein the integrated feed ramp feeds shells directly into the loading port of the magazine tube of the shotgun.

Abstract: A firearm system is provided. A pump-action firearm, such as a shotgun, includes a buffer attached to a trigger housing. The buffer consists of a resilient or semi-resilient material and is positioned such as to face towards an opening the receiver in which the magazine tube is partially received. The buffer includes a contoured bottom surface and an upper surface, configured in a way which shortens the space available within an opening of a receiver while accommodating the loading of shells into a magazine tube. Upon moving a shell into the opening, such as by pumping the action, the shell impacts the buffer, which stabilizes the shell prior to being lifted by an elevators. For shorter shells, this reduces the risk of a jamming event. For longer shells, the buffer is configured to compress to accommodate the additional length.

Abstract: Described herein are a shotgun optic plate cover, and methods for making and installing same as well as retrofitting existing shotguns to accommodate the shotgun optic plate cover, with an integrated rear sight to enable either optics enhanced, or non-optics enhanced aiming capabilities for shotguns.

Abstract: Described herein are a shotgun optic cutout and a shotgun receiver accessory mounting point, and methods for making same and retrofitting shotguns to include same, that is configured to allow users to directly mount accessories and accessory mounts to a shotgun receiver without permanently modifying the shotgun.
