Benefits of technology

[0006]This two-piece cover can readily be removed and replaced as often as needed. Also, the pieces fit it an average pocket with ease, so they do not become a separate burden. They are much more convenient than a full cover, while providing totally adequate protection.

Problems solved by technology

However, during a hunting trip, an ordinary gun cover cannot be repeatedly removed and replaced with great convenience.
And while the cover is off the gun, you cannot readily place it in your pocket.
Also, if you were to fall or drop the gun while the cover is off, there is a good chance dirt, mud, snow or other debris may enter the muzzle or the chamber.
Any obstruction in the barrel becomes an immediate danger to the user and all nearby hunters, since the gun may explode if fired.

Embodiment Construction

[0011]As shown in FIG. 1, chamber cover 11 is fixed in place on the firing chamber of shotgun 12. The internal construction of cover 11 enables it to assume the shape of the gun, and thereby remain snugly in place, to prevent mud, rain, snow, ice and / or other debris from entering the chamber. Muzzle cover 13 is fixed in place over the muzzle and only a portion of barrel 14, to prevent the entry of mud, rain, snow, ice and / or other debris. It remains in place because of its elastic grip on a portion of barrel 14. The preferred construction materials for both covers are selected to be waterproof, flexible, rugged and durable. The muzzle cover is also heat-resistant, within the range of barrel temperatures caused by frequent firing of the gun.

[0012]As shown in FIG. 2, chamber cover 11 includes parallel metal bands 15, 16 and 17 spaced apart within the cover. The bands have a spring-like function, allowing the user to wrap the cover over the top and sides of a rifle or shotgun. Once the...

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]This invention relates to accessories for a firearm; and more particularly to accessories for protecting a shotgun or rifle.BACKGROUND[0002]If you have ever owned a shotgun or rifle, you probably have sought to protect your gun from the weather, and from accidental damage. Gun covers and gun cases have been widely available for such purposes for hundreds of years. There are many different types of gun cases and covers, most of which are waterproof. They protect the entire gun, and they are generally very effective when used for gun storage.[0003]However, during a hunting trip, an ordinary gun cover cannot be repeatedly removed and replaced with great convenience. And while the cover is off the gun, you cannot readily place it in your pocket. It can be a real nuisance to carry, when not in use. Also, if you were to fall or drop the gun while the cover is off, there is a good chance dirt, mud, snow or other debris may enter the muzzle or the chamber. Any ob...
