Abstract: Conversion devices and methods for converting a chassis style rifle to function as a traditional bolt style rifle. The conversion device includes a conversion component that attaches to a standard or modified standard lower receiver of a rifle to allow the rifle to remain capable of being used as either a chassis gun or standard rifle configuration as desired by the operator. The conversion component may attach to the magazine well of the rifle. The conversion component is removably installable on the lower receiver, and accessories, such as a forearm or handguard, may be removably attached to a conversion component and are supported by the lower receiver. The configuration eliminates the need to contact the upper receiver during the act of firing a shot, particularly for gripping with the off-hand or resting on separate shooting accessories. The accuracy and precision of the rifle are enhanced.

Abstract: The present folding stock adapter can be used with many types of military-type assault rifles that typically comprise a receiver extension, buffer and action spring. The present folding stock adapter can be used to add a folding capability to a standard stock allowing it to fold against a rifle's receiver when the weapon is not in use, thus reducing the overall length of the weapon. This reduction in length can facilitate its maneuverability, storage and transport in cramped quarters. The present device can also allow for the quick unfolding of the stock in order to allow the weapon to function and be fire normally.

Abstract: A pneumatic arrow gun has a gun body, an arrow, a positioning sleeve, and a connecting wire. The arrow is for inserting into an air tube of the gun body. The positioning sleeve is temporarily mounted around the air tube, and the arrow is disposed through the positioning sleeve. The connecting wire connects the gun body to the positioning sleeve. Because the positioning sleeve is temporarily mounted around the air tube, the arrow slides forward relative to the positioning sleeve after triggering. When triggering the arrow, the connecting wire naturally dangles. When the arrow detaches from the air tube, the positioning sleeve located at a nock of the arrow due to the sliding of the arrow. Therefore, a rebound of the arrowhead is prevented. The safety and the shooting stability are ensured. Further, the arrow is easily retrieved by the connecting wire.
