  • Publication number: 20240151492
    Abstract: A quick disconnect assembly for a sling mount includes a cup having a top portion and a shaft portion connected to the top portion, the cup defining a non-circular through-opening and a recess that extends axially part way into the shaft portion. A post includes a post body extending axially between a first end portion and a second end, the first end portion having one or more protrusions. The post is configured to pass through the through-opening in the cup when the post is in an unlocked position with the protrusion(s) aligned with the through-opening. Rotating the post to a locked position aligns the protrusion(s) with the recess, which can define a plus shape with the through opening. A mounting body on the second end of the post defines or can include an attachment point. A spring is on the post between the mounting body and the cup.

  • Publication number: 20230304771
    Abstract: A firearm stock includes a stock body slidably mounted on a beam. A lever attached to the stock body can be moved between a locked position, a first unlocked position, and a second unlocked position, where operating the lever moves a locking mechanism between locked and unlocked positions. For example, when the lever is in the first unlocked position, the locking mechanism permits longitudinal adjustment of the stock body along the beam. When the lever is in the second unlocked position the locking mechanism permits the stock body to be slidably removed from the beam. In one example, the lower portion of the stock body defines a plurality of cam pathways for pins that secure the lever to the stock body. Forward cam pathways permit either a pivoting movement about the rear pin or a downward and forward shifting movement.

  • Publication number: 20230243614
    Abstract: A bipod assembly includes a first yoke configured to be attached to a firearm. A second yoke is pivotably attached to the first yoke. Right and left legs are pivotably connected to the second yoke and movable between an open position and a closed position. The bipod assembly is movable between a stowed and locked position, a stowed and unlocked position, a deployed and unlocked position, and a deployed and locked position. In a locked position, part of each leg engages the first yoke to maintain the leg's open or closed position as well as the leg's deployed or stowed position. The bipod assembly enables one-hand deployment from a stowed state.
