Abstract

A sabot having an extended casing for containing propellant charge and a slotted top portion for securing a projectile. The propellant charge is ignited by gases that enter the lower portion of the sabot from a puncture developed by the mating of the sabot against a breech plug. The breech plug has a piercing component in the form of a sharpened forward edge to initiate puncture of the breech end of the sabot.

Abstract

A forend stock for a break open firearm having a housing lug, the housing lug being attached into the lower side of the barrel assembly. A coupler is secured onto the housing lug. At the coupler end opposite the housing lug rod, there is a cylindrical area, and between the two coupler ends, another finished area forming an extended flange. The extended flange has a larger diameter than the cylindrical ends of the coupler. A latch bolt is secured to the forend stock by a cover plate. The latch bolt is topped at one of its ends with a sharp bevel. At its other end, it has a cylindrical post to support a pressure spring, and is held in a longitudinal channel or recess, and arranged such that a user can access an actuator knob for manual handling of the latch bolt. The cover plate assembly has an aperture which the ledges of an extended protrusion of the latch bolt fit within, defining the forward and backward travel limits that the bolt can go in a direction parallel to the axial direction of the barrel.

Abstract

An ammunition system and associated ammunition for firearms, particularly for muzzleloader firearms, having a predetermined amount of propellant charge housed in a casing, and a separate projectile having a sabot. The casing has a cap sealing the casing muzzle end such that the cap and the sabot provide seals to trap propellant gases within the barrel behind the projectile upon firing. The cap top end and sabot bottom end interlock in mechanical communication with one another upon firing allowing the projectile exiting the barrel muzzle end to be responsive to the barrel rifling. The barrel breech end has a chamber bushing for receiving the casing and a tapered muzzle end to prohibit the projectile from entering the casing.

Abstract

A muzzleloader firearm is converted into a firearm adapted for firing an arrow. The stock assembly of the muzzleloader firearm is retained while the barrel assembly is completely removed, and replaced by an arrow barrel assembly. The arrow barrel assembly has a stock assembly attachment for releasably engaging the stock assembly of the muzzleloader firearm, and a barrel attachment for engaging an inner barrel tube that holds an arrow shaft with a hollow interior and propels the arrow out of the firearm when a blank cap is activated, and an outer shroud to protect the inner barrel tube and enclose a loaded arrow. The arrow barrel assembly rearward end has formed recesses for receiving the blank cap and aligning the rim of the blank cap with the firing pin of the muzzleloader stock assembly.

Abstract

A firearm in-line hammerless percussion firing system comprising: a striker (101) having a firing pin (101a) at a forward or breech end; a striker spring (102) for biasing said striker in a forward position when said striker spring is compressed; a cocking button (103) for compressing said striker spring; a retainer (104) holding said cocking button in a forward position and keeping said striker spring compressed; and a sear (109) pivotally mounted to said firearm for blocking said striker until a lost motion trigger system releases said sear; wherein said trigger system includes a trigger holding said sear in a blocking position and releasing said sear upon movement of said trigger.

Abstract

An inline hammerless percussion firing system for muzzleloader firearms with a striker having a firing pin and a striker spring to linearly drive the firing pin forward. A cocking button compresses the striker spring. A pivoting retainer acts against a nut connected to the cocking button to hold the cocking button forward and keep the striker spring compressed. A sear acts to prevent the striker from moving forward until released by a two piece trigger system in which a trigger and trigger edge pivot relative to each other with lost motion before releasing the sear, allowing the trigger edge to move out from below a safety notch in the sear, where firing is prevented, to below a firing notch in the sear to prevent accidental discharges from impact. The cocking button can be released by an uncocking button. Releasing a barrel catch resets firearm to the initial safe position.
