AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The patent text has two aspects. The first aspect is to provide a way to make the gun pocket opening wider and freer by adding vertical relief slits to the ends of the pocket. The second aspect is to provide a way to hold the pocket closed so that it can be accessed quickly by pushing one's fingertips and hand directly into the pocket opening, without needing to unsecure the pocket first. These technical innovations improve the functionality and access of the gun pocket.

Problems solved by technology

Such garment pockets typically come with drawbacks of some kind.
With some, the garment has to be made with the pocket already installed, which is unworkable for people who don't find the brand of garment usable and prefer to wear their own brand.
These can be difficult to use for people who are accustomed to using their normal pockets for carrying things other than a gun.
With some such pockets, the gun is not positioned for comfortable everyday carry, such as with pockets that allow access to a gun that is strapped to the thigh.
