Abstract: A device for use in loading cartridges in a pistol magazine having a locking recess, the device including an ergonomic, pistol grip shaped housing including a through-going magazine receiving bore having a substantially rectangular cross-section for receiving a magazine through the bottom of the housing and enclosing the magazine therein, and an elongate bore parallel to the magazine receiving bore and extending from a top of the housing part way through the housing; a magazine catch in the housing extending into the magazine receiving bore for engaging the locking recess in the magazine; a release element, coupled to the magazine catch, for releasing the magazine catch from the magazine; and a spring loaded plunger mounted for linear movement in the elongate bore for engaging a cartridge in the magazine protruding through the magazine receiving bore.

Abstract: A magazine carrier for a firearm, the magazine carrier including a frame having walls to releasably hold an ammunition magazine, and an external track element defined on the frame for engaging a complementary engagement element. The complementary track element can be on a clip, on an adapter or on another similar frame.

Abstract: A firearm stock having a buffer tube holder, the buffer tube holder including a bore for receiving a buffer tube, and at least one flexible support member defined in the bore for engaging and firmly holding the buffer tube. Preferably, the flexible support member includes a U-shaped slot defining a flexible flap.

Abstract: A tactical illuminator having an integrated illuminator system including a horizontally-oriented foregrip, a power source, a rotary switch, a toggle switch, a depressible switch, an attachment mechanism, navigation lights, an aiming laser, and a main illuminator.

Abstract: A firearm accessory holder and method for making it, the accessory holder including a housing, for holding a firearm accessory, and a mounting rail coupled to the housing, the mounting rail being complementary to a bayonet mounting rail on a firearm.

Abstract: A forearm handgrip for a rifle, comprising a pair of essentially identical semi-oval mating half-grip pieces adapted to mate together to form the grip. The half-grip pieces have an exterior shaped in a generally semi-oval lateral section having curved sides and adapted to fit a shooter' hand, and are formed of injection-molded high density polymer. At least the bottom, and preferably both, half-grip piece have an accessory mounting rail recessed in the area at the center of the piece such that the posts and guide channel of the rail are inside what would be the extended arc of the sides of the half grip piece. A cover plate is adapted for engagement with each rail to cover the rail when the rail is not in use, the cover plate being shaped to replicate the extended arc of the sides of the half grip up to a flat longitudinally extending rib running along the center of the cover plate. Ventilation holes may be located in a row in the accessory rail and in the cover plate.
