Benefits of technology

The technical effect of this patent is to improve the appearance and handling of a rifle by minimizing the number of cuts through the receiver, which helps to prevent dust and dirt from getting inside.

Problems solved by technology

As the bolt of the rifle action is moved rearward, the ejector pivots into place through a slot in the bolt face and hits the shell case, causing the case to be thrown from the action.

Abstract

A rifle action for a firearm includes a receiver, a breech bolt and a mechanical case ejector. The receiver has a receiver bore, a first sidewall with an opening for ejecting shell casings, and a second sidewall with a blind pocket on a side facing the receiver bore. The ejector is rotatably mounted by a pin that extends vertically between top and bottom surfaces of the blind pocket. The ejector has a base that fits into the blind pocket and a finger that extends into the receiver bore. The ejector has a first position in which the finger is located out of a path of movement of the breech bolt, and a second position in which the finger extends into a path of movement of the breech bolt upon rearward movement of the bolt to eject shell casings from the receiver bore. The blind pocket can be formed by EDM.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates in general to rifle actions for firearms and, in particular, to rifle actions having mechanical type case ejectors.[0003]Description of the Related Art[0004]A bolt action rifle requires an ejection system to throw an extracted case from the action. There are various kinds of ejection systems, including plunger-style ejectors located in the bolt face, and ejectors rotatably mounted to the receiver.[0005]The Model 1903 Springfield rifle used an ejector rotatably mounted in a slot formed through the sidewall of the receiver. The Springfield ejector includes a steel blade that freely pivots on a steel pin mounted in the sidewall of the receiver. As the bolt of the rifle action is moved rearward, the ejector pivots into place through a slot in the bolt face and hits the shell case, causing the case to be thrown from the action.[0006]There is a need for a rifle action with an improved ejector system...
