Benefits of technology

[0003]Rifle stocks provide many advantages to the user when they are installed on a rifle. Rifle stocks enable the shooter to brace the firearm with their shoulder, which provides a stable firing platform to increase accuracy and absorb recoil forces. The length of the stock establishes the rifle's length of pull, which is the distance from the rear end of the stock to the shooter's trigger finger when resting on the rifle's trigger. Many rifles are manufactured with stocks having a standard length of pull of 13.5 inch, which is believed to fit most shooters. However, this length of pull is not suitable for all shooters. An improper length of pull can prevent the shooter from assuming proper body position when shooting, potentially harming the rifle's accuracy. A rifle with a length of pull that is too long or too short can result in the shooter creating undesirable lateral movement of the rifle when pulling the trigger. The shooter may have to assume an uncomfortable body position to compensate, which increases fatigue.

Problems solved by technology

However, this length of pull is not suitable for all shooters.
An improper length of pull can prevent the shooter from assuming proper body position when shooting, potentially harming the rifle's accuracy.
A rifle with a length of pull that is too long or too short can result in the shooter creating undesirable lateral movement of the rifle when pulling the trigger.
The shooter may have to assume an uncomfortable body position to compensate, which increases fatigue.
Although prior art rifle stocks with adjustable length of pull exist, they have significant limitations.
These existing rifle stocks can also have a very limited length of pull adjustment range that is insufficient to meet the end user's needs.

Embodiment Construction

[0015]An embodiment of the rifle stock of the present invention is shown and generally designated by the reference numeral 10.

[0016]FIGS. 1-5 illustrate the improved rifle stock 10 of the present invention. More particularly, FIG. 1 shows the rifle stock in use attached to a rifle 12. The rifle includes a barreled receiver 14 defining a barrel axis 16. The rifle stock has an elongated frame element 18 having a forward end 20 configured to connect to the barreled receiver of the rifle. In the current embodiment, the forward end has a threaded portion 22 that is compatible with the castle nut 94 of an AR-style rifle, such as the rifle illustrated. The elongated frame element defines a frame axis 24 parallel to the barrel axis. The frame element has an elongated first attachment facility 26 extending along the length of the frame element and defining a first plurality of attachment locations 28. The elongated frame element has an elongated second attachment facility 30 extending along ...

Abstract

A rifle stock has an elongated frame element having a forward end configured to connect to a rifle, the elongated frame element having an elongated first attachment facility extending along the length of the elongated frame element and defining a first plurality of attachment locations, the elongated frame element having an elongated second attachment facility extending along the length of the elongated frame element and defining a second plurality of different attachment locations, a cheek riser connected to the first attachment facility, and a butt assembly connected to the second attachment facility. At least one of the first and second attachment facilities may be a rail having an unlimited number of attachment positions. At least one of the first and second attachment facilities may be a rail having a limited number of discrete attachment positions. The rail may define a plurality of stop surfaces.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application Number 63 / 067,242 filed on Aug. 18, 2020, entitled “AMBIDEXTROUS ADJUSTABLE BUTTSTOCK AND CHEEK REST,” which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety for all that is taught and disclosed therein.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates to firearms, and more particularly to a rifle stock that enables the rifle's length of pull and cheek rest position to be adjusted independently.BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION[0003]Rifle stocks provide many advantages to the user when they are installed on a rifle. Rifle stocks enable the shooter to brace the firearm with their shoulder, which provides a stable firing platform to increase accuracy and absorb recoil forces. The length of the stock establishes the rifle's length of pull, which is the distance from the rear end of the stock to the shooter's trigger finger when resting on the rifle's t...
