A hand-held firearm, comprising a casing which accommodates breech parts, a stock which is attached to the casing, and a barrel which is detachably connected to the casing, and having a mounting for a telescopic sight. In order to avoid the disadvantages of the conventional telescopic sight fitting and to allow the entire weapon to have a neat and practical shape, the casing forms a casing extension at the front beyond the connection to the barrel and a longitudinal rail is integrally formed at the top on the casing and on the casing extension as a mounting for the telescopic sight. The casing parts are made of light metal alloy.
A fastening device (F) with first (16) and second sides (30) attaches a first device (10) to a mounting rail (12) of a second device (14). A top section (44) for mounting the first device extends from the first or second sides. The sides are adapted to removably clamp about the rail. A clamping member (46) extends between the first and second sides. An extended end (48) of the clamping member extends through the first side, and an opposing end (50) is coupled with the second side. The clamping member extended portion (48) is movably coupled to a single cam member (56) operably mounted with the first side for drawing the sides closer together into a clamping position (58) to mate the sides with the rail.
An accessory mount, and a method for mounting accessories for a hand held firearm having a barrel and a mounting rail coupled beneath the barrel, the accessory mount including a frame, defining a substantially flattened bottom surface and a track for mounting along the mounting rail, the frame having a cavity for receiving a light, and a bipod mount coupled adjacent the track and behind the light cavity and arranged to hold a bipod having legs which can be folded substantially adjacent the barrel.
A flashlight mount, and a method for mounting a flashlight, for a rifle having a barrel and a mounting rail coupled to the barrel, the flashlight mount including a frame having a bore for receiving a flashlight, the frame defining a substantially flattened bottom surface, and a base for mounting along the mounting rail, the base being distanced from the frame, thereby creating a finger-receiving aperture therebetween.
