AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The invention is a device that attaches a pistol to a rifle, allowing for more stable and accurate aiming. The device has a recoil tube that is securely held in place on the shoulder of the rifleperson using an adapter and a shoulder strap. This keeps the weapon stable and secure while also allowing for easy adjustment of the aim. The trained use of this device can increase the effectiveness of the weapon and protect the user from injury during training or combat.

Problems solved by technology

While such bodily contact with the rearward end of a firearm's recoil tube is intended to perform a function of weapon stabilization, such contact often is itself undesirably unstable.
The intended stabilizing recoil tube contact often drifts or slides over the rifleperson's outer clothing, undesirably skewing the aim of the weapon.

Embodiment Construction

[0023]Referring now to the drawings and in particular simultaneously to Drawing FIGS. 1-4, the instant inventive adapter for shouldering a firearm comprises a base 2 which is suitably substantially square or box configured. The base 2 is preferably composed of a durable high strength material such as HDPE (high density polyethylene) plastic.

[0024]A further structural component of the instant inventive adapter comprises a recoil tube stop, an example of which is represented by a downwardly facing surface 6 which is bordered in dashed lines drawn upon Drawing FIG. 1. The assembly's recoil tube stop component 6 suitably comprises a lower or downwardly facing surface of a “U” bracket which includes a laterally spanning web portion 4, the web portion having left and right ends 5 and 7. The “U” bracket suitably further comprises left and right downwardly extending arms 10 and 12. Such arms have their proximal ends fixedly attached to or formed wholly with the web's left and right ends 5 a...

Abstract

An adapter for shouldering a firearm of the type having a recoil tube wherein the recoil tube has a rearward end; the adapter for shouldering the firearm incorporating a base; incorporating a recoil tube stop which is fixedly attached to or formed wholly with from the base; incorporating a socket underlying the recoil tube stop, wherein the socket is fitted for receiving the recoil tube's rearward end; and incorporating a matrix of flexible straps connected to the base, the straps being adapted to hold the base upon a rifleperson's upper torso.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]This invention relates to firearms. More particularly, this invention relates to recoil tube adapted semi-automatic pistols, along with apparatus and assemblies which are configured for assisting a rifleperson in shouldering and aiming such firearms.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Semi-automatic pistols often incorporate a breach end or rearwardly extending recoil tube or buffer tube. Such tubes typically incorporate an interior spring and an interior cylindrical weight whose longitudinal motion within the tube is dampened by the spring. Upon firing of a weapon including such recoil tube, a portion of the recoil or rearward “kick” experienced by the weapon translates to the cylindrical weight within the recoil tube, advantageously lessening recoil or kick experienced by other portions of the weapon and by a rifleperson operating the weapon.[0003]During firing of such recoil tube adapted firearms, a rifleperson may, upon occasion, utilize the rearward end...
