A guard including a handle and having a tang received in a mounting device mounted on a handgun, providing a user with dual-handled control over the handgun.

A modular receiver system for firearms comprising a barrel and receiver assembly providing a quick changeover coupling means for connecting the barrel to the receiver, wherein the coupling means comprises a barrel retaining bushing and a pair of opposed cam surfaces on the receiver for hinged engagement of the cam surfaces against the barrel, and wherein the modular receiver system further comprises a rail system for mounting ancillary firearms equipments.

An improved system bearing on a firearm is proposed in which the barrel is clamped by means of a wedge-locking mechanism in the barrel bed of a receiver developed at the breech of the firearm. The wedge-locking mechanism can exhibit a tension wedge or a locking mechanism via normal inclined running wedge surfaces. The system bearing block is structured such that the barrel locking mechanism can make available an additional supplemental lock.

A stock connector allows for secure attachment of various stocks to firearm receivers. The stocks can be changed out easily and quickly in the field, without the use of specialized tools.

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 ...

A new double barrel shotgun for increasing firing capacity and allowing simultaneous pump action of both forearm members or independent operation of one firing mechanism if one barrel becomes unusable due to jamming. The inventive device includes a receiver with a pair of elongate spaced apart barrels coupled at their rear ends to the front end of the receiver. A pair of spaced apart elongate magazine tubes are also coupled at their rear ends to the receiver front end. A pair of spaced apart for...

A system for fastening the barrel (1) of a rifle with a replaceable barrel, the system consisting of a lock frame (2), into which the barrel socket (5) can be inserted into position and locked by a bolting device. The bolting device consists of a barrel block stop (4) provided at the top of the lock frame (2), a groove (6) in the barrel socket being insertable into the block stop when the barrel is clamped into locked position.

The present invention is an improved quick change barrel system for a firearm. It features an interlocking trunnion and lock ring that hold the barrel in place proximate the receiver. Intermittent threading provides multiple points of interface. A foldable handle is provided to allow safe removal of the lock ring and additional torque for attachment and removal of the lock ring from the system.

An antidismantling device for preventing dismantling of a hand-gun when a cartridge is present in the barrel (102) of the hand-gun, the barrel (102) being mounted in a breech block (110), and a guide pin (123), which is biased at least indirectly in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the barrel (102), is slidably mounted in a bearing (113) in the breech block (110), and one end of the guide pin at least indirectly abuts a contact surface (121) for making contact with part of a cartridge (...
