摘要:
A firearm holster and a method of making the firearm holster is disclosed. The firearm is wholly or partially molded of ballistic material in such a way that a bullet that is discharged into the holster is retained within the holster or deflected so that it doesn't cause damage to the user of the firearm or other persons or property.

A method for creating a product and a product mold kit for creating the product may include two halves of a mold casing for at least a portion of a product. The mold casing may include one or more chambers to enable escape of air bubbles. The mold casing may include at least one reservoir for applying downward pressure. The product mold kit may include one or more mold casing parts to create an internal structure of at least the portion of the product by being placed in the two halves of the mold casing. The two halves of the mold casing may be secured together. The two halves of the mold casing, when secured together, may receive resin to a fill point. The two halves of the mold casing may be separated after curing the resin. The resin may be removed from the two halves of the mold casing.

Threaded metal inserts for polymer lower receivers and hybrid polymer lower receivers comprising one or more of such inserts, as well as kits and methods therefor are disclosed. A threaded metal insert has a substantially circular aperture configured with screw threads to releasably yet connectively interface with a separate traditionally threaded firearm component such as a buffer tube or a pistol grip screw. Inserts can be any overall shape so long as it can be integrally embedded within a traditionally threaded portion of a polymer lower receiver in a way that does not interfere with normal operation of an assembled firearm and leaves exposed the internal threading of the insert. Inserts can also comprise textural features on the exterior surface configured to permanently interface with and embed the an insert into molded polymer. A hybrid polymer and metal lower receiver is a stripped polymer lower receiver for an AR type firearm, such as the AR-15 or AR-10, having one or more such threaded metal inserts at least partially embedded in a portion thereof.

This invention is directed to a rifle barrel and a method for modifying a pre-existing rifle barrel comprising dissembling said pre-existing rifle so that said barrel is removed from said pre-existing rifle placing said barrel in a sleeve having an inner diameter larger then said diameter of said barrel for receiving said barrel thereby defining a void arranged between said barrel and said sleeve when said barrel is placed in said sleeve reducing the outer diameter of said barrel near the breach end of said barrel so that said sleeve will cover said barrel up to the action of said rifle when said barrel is placed in said sleeve filling said void defined by said barrel and said sleeve with filler material attaching a weld-on thread assemble to said sleeve at the muzzle end of said barrel and assembling said pre-existing rifle with said barrel placed in said sleeve.

An extrusion die for use in producing perforated stick-type propellant includes a die blank having a central passage therethrough, the passage having a tapered entry, an open lattice webbing structure having struts in and spanning the central die passage, and an array of die pins for imparting perforations in material forced through the central passage, each pin having a fixed end attached to the lattice structure and a free end extending parallel to the passage beyond the lattice structure.
摘要:
A venturi section or cone for a lightweight firearm such as a recoilles gun which is subjected to high transient pressures and temperatures on firing is formed from a resin impregnated multi-filament fiber material. The material in the form of an elongated tow is wound on a mandrel, cured, and then removed from the mandrel for subsequent operations such as machining or assembly. During manufacture, a hot gas erosion preventing layer is first formed on the mandrel and a plurality of layers of two are helically wound thereon at a helix angle selected to provide adequate axial and hoop strengths for resisting axial thrust and hoop loads produced on firing. Lightweight recoilless guns using such venturi cones are lighter and cheaper to fabricate than conventional guns and will fire more rounds before excessive erosion causes them to be unusable.
摘要:
An improved system for protecting vehicles or other objects from rocket propelled grenade (RPG) attacks. A net panel of the improved system weighs and costs substantially less than a conventional protective system panel, and requires minimal manual work to manufacture, install, replace or repair. When assembled, the hard points, as well as the panels, are symmetrical meaning that a panel does not have a left, right, inward or outward face and may be used on either side of a vehicle. The net may be manufactured as a continuous web or roll and does not require any edging for securing it to a frame. In addition, a damaged net may be replaced easily and rapidly using a simple hand tool.
摘要:
A strengthened firearm includes at least one metal/composite material formed into at least one firearm component, and a polymer/composite material combined with the at least one firearm component. The metal/composite material replaces the polymer/composite material in a specific area or component of the firearm that may be weak or tend to fail earlier than other areas or components of a polymer/composite firearm. The method of combining the multiple materials allows for additional strength in the firearm.
