The projection is adapted to be received within a first recess of the RSB for connection thereto. An adapter body is connected to the locking insert and has a projection that extends in a second direction opposite the first direction. The projection of the adapter body is adapted to be received within a second recess of the RSB for connection thereto. A mount body is connected to the adapter body and has an accessory interface which is adapted to connect to an accessory. An adapter body is secured with a push-pivot pin securely wedging the projection of the adapter against an internal wall of the RSB.

A firearm magazine base pad comprises a base pad body adapted to be removably secured to a lower end of a magazine body, the base pad body including a front portion, a rear portion, a pair of opposed side portions, and a lower portion. The lower portion of the base pad body, when viewed in a cross-sectional plane parallel to and medially of the opposed side portions and in a cross-sectional plane perpendicular to the opposed side portions and medially of the front and rear portions, is convex. The front portion of the base pad body, when viewed in a cross-sectional plane parallel to and medially of the opposed side portions, is concave.

US12487043 - Device for disassembling a firearm

This disclosure concerns a pistol having an anti-disassembly protection device, which includes a disassembly key arranged rotatably in a frame, and which can be manually turned between an angular locking position and an angular disassembly position, and which disassembly key may occupy a transverse resting position and a transverse rotation position. The disassembly key has blocking means that cooperate with additional blocking means on the frame in order to prevent rotation of the disassembly key into the angular disassembly position when the disassembly key occupies the transverse resting position.

US12487044 - Weapon usage monitoring system having discharge event monitoring directed toward quick change barrel

A system for providing discharge monitoring of a firearm includes an event detection module, an event detection module housing, and a signal processing module. The event detection module has a sensor that senses an acceleration and generates an acceleration signal. The event detection module housing houses the event detection module. The signal processing module receives the acceleration signal and determines whether the acceleration signal is a discharge event and generates an event detection signal based on the determination, the signal processing module is further configured to maintain a shot count of the firearm based on the determination that the event detection signal is a discharge event. The event detection module is coupled to a quick change barrel of the firearm. The event detection module generates the event detection signal specific to the quick change barrel of the firearm; and determines a shot count of the quick change barrel.
