Abstract
A weapon retention system may include a base assembly, a first plate coupled to the base assembly, and a second plate coupled to the base assembly, where a distance between the plates while the base assembly is in an open state is greater than a distance between the plates while the base assembly is in a closed state, where the first plate and the second plate are configured to retain the weapon between the first plate and the second plate while the base assembly is in the closed state. The system may further include a linear ratchet coupled to the first plate. The system may also include a pistol grip rest coupled to the first plate, where the pistol grip includes a pin configured to engage the linear ratchet for unidirectional adjustment while the pistol grip rest is in a first state.
Claims20
A weapon retention system comprising:
- a base assembly;
- a first plate coupled to the base assembly;
- a second plate coupled to the base assembly, wherein an open distance between the first plate and the second plate while the base assembly is in an open state is greater than a closed distance between the first plate and the second plate while the base assembly is in a closed state, wherein the first plate and the second plate are configured to receive a weapon therebetween, and wherein the first plate and the second plate are configured to retain the weapon between the first plate and the second plate while the base assembly is in the closed state;
- a linear ratchet coupled to the first plate;
- and
- a pistol grip rest coupled to the first plate, wherein the pistol grip rest includes a pin configured to engage the linear ratchet for unidirectional adjustment while the pistol grip rest is in a first state.
A weapon retention method comprising:
- reducing a distance between a first plate coupled to a base assembly and a second plate coupled to the base assembly to a closed distance in response to movement of a handle of the base assembly from a first position to a second position, wherein the closed distance is associated with a closed state of the base assembly;
- and
- retaining a weapon between the first plate and the second plate while the base assembly is in the closed state;
- and
- adjusting a pistol grip rest along a linear ratchet until the pistol grip rest engages a pistol grip of the weapon, wherein the pistol grip includes a pin configured to engage the linear ratchet for unidirectional adjustment while the pistol grip rest is in a first state, and wherein the pin is configured to disengage the linear ratchet for multidirectional adjustment while the pistol grip rest is in a second state.
A weapon retention system comprising:
- a base assembly;
- a first plate coupled to the base assembly;
- a second plate coupled to the base assembly;
- a linear ratchet coupled to the first plate;
- and
- a pistol grip rest coupled to the first plate, wherein the pistol grip rest includes a pin configured to engage the linear ratchet for unidirectional adjustment while the pistol grip rest is in a first state, and wherein the pin is configured to disengage the linear ratchet for multidirectional adjustment while the pistol grip rest is in a second state.
