The invention relates to a firearm comprising one or more retractable loading system elements, specifically at least one from a loading device, breechblock carrier, or slide. These each follow a trajectory when retracted. The firearm also comprises one or more reference elements, which indicate such a predetermined position of the loading system elements along their respective trajectories, at which the chamber is opened, such that a cartridge potentially located in the chamber can be seen and/or felt, but is not ejected. The predetermined position of the loading system element is distanced to possible positions for disassembling the firearm, and the one or more reference elements are formed such that they ensure that the loading system elements can travel freely along their respective trajectories when the safety for the firearm is either on or off.

Firearm loading systems and firearms including loading systems

Example apparatus and method are disclosed for a unitary firearm housing for an automatic firearm, comprising a barrel receptacle configured as an internal component of the unitary firearm housing.

Automatic firearm housing apparatus and related methods

Example apparatus are disclosed for an adapter to attach at least one device to a self-loading firearm, the adapter comprising a barrel-side section and a receiver-side section adjacent the barrel-side section, wherein the barrel-side section and the receiver-side section extend in a longitudinal direction of the firearm, wherein one of the barrel-side section and the receiver-side section is securable to a retention device on a firearm barrel or a firearm receiver, and wherein the other of the barrel-side section and the receiver-side section can be moveably supported on the firearm receiver or the firearm barrel by a guide that allows for longitudinal movement of the receiver-side section or the barrel-side section with respect to the firearm.

Mounting adapter for self-loading firearms

A firearm includes a cocking lever, a shoulder-stock receptacle and a shoulder support having a shoulder stock configured to be joined by a connector to the shoulder-stock receptacle. A shoulder-stock adjuster is configured to adjust a position of the shoulder stock relative to the shoulder-stock receptacle along an adjustment axis. A cheek rest is mounted via a bearing on the shoulder stock so as to be movable in a direction parallel to the adjustment axis. A stop is disposed on the shoulder-stock receptacle so as to limit a movement path of the cheek rest towards a front of the firearm. At a position of the cheek rest defined by the stop of the shoulder-stock receptacle, the cocking lever does not collide with the cheek rest, even in a completely retracted state.

Firearm

A firearm grip, a firearm grip construction set and related methods are disclosed. An example firearm grip includes a grip portion, which includes a wall covering at least a portion of a magazine and a plurality of ribs. The firearm grip also has a first grip shell having a plurality of first lateral edges, second grip shell having a plurality of second lateral edges, and a grip back having a top edge and a bottom edge. With the example firearm grip, at least one of the first grip shell or the second grip shell is exchangeable. In addition, at least one of the first grip shell, the second grip shell or the grip back is coupled to the grip portion with an undercut tongue and groove connection. Further, at least one of the first lateral edges, the second lateral edges, the top edge or the bottom edge slidably engages under one of the plurality of ribs and an opposite edge of at least one of the first lateral edges, the second lateral edges, the top edge or the bottom edge is coupled to the grip portion via an attachment. In addition, the grip back of the example firearm grip slidably engages at least one of the first lateral edges or the second lateral edges and holds at least one of the first grip shell or the second grip shell in place.

Firearm grips and firearm grip construction sets

Weapons safety systems and methods of operating the system are described. An example weapons safety system in which the enabling of a weapon to shoot is controlled by means of an exchange of identification between the weapon and an enabling apparatus. An example weapon includes a weapon identification code and a safety device. An example enabling apparatus that is designed to capture the weapon identification code and to transmit an enabling signal to the safety device in the weapon includes a control unit. The control unit controls the enabling device and includes an identification memory that includes at least one registered weapon identification. Upon receiving a control signal from the enabling apparatus, the weapon transmits an identification signal that contains the weapon identification code. In addition, the enabling apparatus sends a weapon-enabling signal if the weapon identification code matches at least one of the registered weapon identification. Furthermore, the enabling apparatus may change the identification code.

Weapons firing safeties and methods of operating the same

A hollow point bullet and methods for fabricating the same are disclosed. An example hollow point bullet includes a recess opened at a tip of the bullet that includes a first portion and a second portion. The first portion opens to the tip of the bullet and has a square cross-section, and the second portion has a circular cross-section.
