    Abstract: System for a multi-caliber self-loading action. Specifically, the system is comprised of a multi-position locking assembly and a self-regulating gas assembly. The multiposition locking assembly is comprised of a bolt carrier, a spring, a bolt, a lock, and a cam assembly. The cam assembly will interface between the bolt carrier and the bolt to rotate the bolt through the bolt carrier. The lock will interface with the bolt, to lock the bolt in at least one locked position based on the caliber of the round inserted. The self-regulating gas assembly directs gas from the gas regulation to at least one piston cup, which will then cause the piston to act on the multi-position locking assembly.

    Abstract: An adjustable gas block for a firearm comprises a housing adapted to be attached to a barrel of the firearm. The housing has a first passageway adapted to be aligned with a gas port in a barrel of the firearm and a second passageway adapted to receive a gas tube of the firearm, such that a bore of the barrel, the gas port of the barrel, the first passageway, and the gas tube are in fluid communication. A valve member is mounted in the housing for forward and rearward sliding movement and has a first portion and a second portion. The first portion has an upwardly facing surface having a radius of curvature that closely approximates a radius of curvature of an outer diameter of the gas tube, and the second portion has threads. A nut is carried by the housing for rotational movement and has threads mating with the threads on the second portion of the valve. Rotating the nut in a first direction translates the valve member forwardly and rotating the nut in a second opposite direction translates the valve member rearwardly. The axial position of the first portion of the valve member controls the amount of gas passing from the first passageway to the gas tube by completely opening, partially opening, or completely closing the first passageway.

    CPC classification number: F41A5/28 F41A5/26

    Abstract: A gas block for AR-platform firearms is provided which is easier to install and index on a barrel of the firearm by utilizing a wedge (e.g., collet) system. The body of the gas block may therefore be relatively precisely circular, allowing for easy movement into position on the barrel of the firearm. The gas block is stronger, tighter, more durable, and more reliably stays in place than prior art gas blocks. In one embodiment, the gas block eliminates forward gas leakage from between the gas block and barrel. The gas block is interchangeable with standard prior art gas blocks commonly found on barrels of existing AR-platform firearms. The gas block is also compatible with low profile and MLOK handguards for AR-platform firearms.

    CPC classification number: F41A5/28 F41G1/02

    Abstract: A firearm including a barrel, receiver, indirect gas system and an adjustable gas block designed to interface with the indirect gas system is provided. Four indexable positions of adjustment are provided for on the adjustable gas block. Positions of adjustment are selected based on the use of a silencer, use of under-powered ammunition, the presence of un-burnt powder and debris in the host firearms operating system, or if the weapon is being fired under “ideal” circumstances. The provided gas block is designed to function with an indirect gas operating system. Excess gas from the operating system is not vented from the gas block thereby generating excess flash and sound. No tool is required to manipulate the adjustment mechanism of the gas.

    Abstract: A firearm including a gas drive, having an annular piston which is displaceably arranged on the barrel to form an expansion chamber between two end positions. At least one gas port penetrates the wall of the barrel in the region of the expansion chamber and a selector is provided. In order to provide a simple and easily adjustable mechanism, the expansion chamber is delimited by a ring surface and an inner cylinder surface of the piston, an end surface of the selector and the barrel. The selector is rotatably arranged on the barrel with at least two predefined rest positions. In each rest position, the gas flow from the expansion chamber is delimitable by at least one selector opening formed on the selector.

    Abstract: A semiautomatic shotgun comprising a receiver, a barrel, a forward gas block assembly attached to the barrel, a slider assembly rearward of the gas block assembly extending into the receiver. Upon firing a shotshell the explosive gases in the barrel are diverted through two ports into the gas block assembly, specifically into a pair of lateral pressure relief valves positioned on both sides of the barrel. The pressure relief valves further having a gas pathway from the barrel provided by clusters of holes less than a specific size and on-center with the barrel axis. A piston is forced rearwardly and engages a slider of the slider assembly that is linked to a breech block in the receiver. The breech block loads unfired shells and ejects the fired shells accomplishing the semiautomatic recycling. The dual pressure relief valves actuate to moderate and limit the gas pressure that enters the piston chamber when using shotshells of different power levels thereby providing consistency in the recycling operation. The shotgun assembled with a plurality of retention pins having uniformly sized O-rings.
