Benefits of technology

[0011]In still a further embodiment, the fastener can be secured to the wedge and to the base to prevent the wedge from moving substantially relative to the base when the butt portion extends relative to the base. The fastener itself can be threaded through or with the wedge so that the wedge cannot move relative to the longitudinal axis, so that a body of the butt portion can move along a path substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis.
[0012]In yet a further embodiment, the fastener can extend through a slot defined by the base and through the wedge. The fastener can move relative

Problems solved by technology

Although these types of adjustable stocks provide adequate adjustment, they are hard to manipulate because two hands are usually required to hold the pin and simultaneously slide the stock.
The use of two hands limits

Embodiment Construction

[0030]A current embodiment of the stock assembly is illustrated in FIGS. 1-11 and generally designated 10. The stock assembly 10 is configured to secure to a receiver or frame 91 associated with a weapon 90, such as a firearm or other projectile shooting device. In some cases, the weapon can be a sporting, military or hunting rifle, for example an AK47, an AR15, variants thereof and other firearm systems. More generally, the weapon can be in the form of a firearm, including, but not limited to a handgun, for example, a pistol and / or a revolver; a rifle, for example, a long rifle, a carbine, an assault rifle, a bolt pump rifle or a battle rifle; a shotgun of any gauge; and / or a machine gun, for example, a machine pistol, a light machine gun, a mini gun, a medium machine gun or a heavy machine gun. The firearm can include any type of action, for example, bolt action, lever action, pump action and / or break action. The firearm can be single shot, automatic and / or semiautomatic. Further ...

Abstract

A stock assembly and related method are provided. The stock assembly can include a base that can be joined with a weapon and a butt portion that movably extends from the base so the stock assembly can be adjusted in length. The stock can include an adjustment limiter configured to stop extension of the butt portion at a predetermined length, which can be set by a user to fit their stature. The butt portion can include a longitudinal axis and a limiter surface offset at an angle relative to the axis. The adjustment limiter can be a wedge that wedges against the limiter surface to set the stock assembly at the predetermined length, thereby automatically setting that length in a consistent and repeatable manner. A lock, separate from the adjustment limiter, can selectively lock the butt portion in a fixed position as or after the stock assembly attains the predetermined length.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to firearms, and more particularly to an adjustable length stock assembly for a firearm.[0002]Many modern sporting and military firearms include a stock that extends rearward from the firearm. The stock typically includes a forward portion that connects to a receiver of the firearm, and a rearward portion that is shaped and distanced from the receiver of the firearm so that a user can engage the rearward portion against the user's shoulder and stabilize the firearm. Some stocks are adjustable in length to accommodate individuals of different statures. Other stocks are foldable so that a user can fold the stock forward alongside or over the receiver. Adjustable length stocks typically include a lever or pin that a user manipulates to release a sliding portion of the stock. The user grasps the sliding portion and manually moves it to a desired position so that the stock is of a desired length. The user releases the lever o...
