Abstract: Aspects described herein may relate to a transaction exchange platform using a streaming data platform (SDP) and microservices to process transactions according to review and approval workflows. The transaction exchange platform may receive transactions from origination sources, which may be added to the SDP as transaction objects. Microservices on the transaction exchange platform may interact with the transaction objects based on configured workflows associated with the transactions. Processing on the transaction exchange platform may facilitate clearing and settlement of transactions. Some aspects may provide for dynamic and flexible reconfiguration of workflows and/or microservices. Other aspects may provide for data snapshots and workflow tracking, allowing for monitoring, quality control, and auditability of transactions on the transaction exchange platform.

Abstract: A firearm accessory and associated components and methods. The firearm accessory can include a foregrip and/or an illuminator (e.g., light and/or laser). The firearm accessory can include a support body selectively operatively connectable to a support body receiver in a first orientation and in a second orientation. The support body can include an actuator configured to change an operational state of the illuminator and/or a port configured to connect a remote actuator to the support body.

Abstract: A firearm accessory with a primary light oriented in a first direction to assist a user in aiming the firearm and a path light oriented in a second direction to assist the user in seeing a travel path. A motion sensor may actuate the path light. The path light may be positioned below the primary light. The accessory includes a mount for mounting the accessory on a firearm. A housing of the accessory may include lug receivers spaced longitudinally, and a lug received by one of the lug receivers and adapted to engage the groove on a firearm rail for preventing longitudinal movement of the mounted accessory. Actuators for turning the primary light on and off may be positioned adjacent sides of a trigger guard of the firearm when the housing is mounted to the firearm. Mounting features and battery compartment features are also disclosed.

Abstract: A firearm accessory mount assembly and associated components and methods. The mount assembly can include a mount, at least one dovetail connector, and at least one fastener. The mount can have a first side configured to receive the firearm accessory and a second side configured to engage the firearm. The fastener can be used to secure the dovetail connector in position with respect to the mount and to secure the mount to the firearm. Other constructions and methods are disclosed.
