Abstract
System for a delayed-opposed-piston gas action assembly. Specifically, the system is comprised of a bolt, a bolt carrier, a gas block, a bolt piston, and a vent piston. Each piston will have a corresponding piston cup that will act on the piston from the gas discharged from the round. Each piston will also have a corresponding spring to bring the piston back to its original position after the gas has dissipated from the system. During the process of the firearm being discharged, the two pistons will act on the bolt carrier, causing the casing of the round to be ejected from the firearm, and a new round to be loaded into the firearm, so that the firearm can be discharged again.
Claims20
A delayed-opposed-piston gas action assembly comprising:
- a bolt configured to interface with a round in a chamber of a firearm;
- a bolt carrier configured to interface with the bolt;
- a gas block configured to interface with a gas port on a barrel, wherein the gas block is further configured to direct an expelled gas, wherein the expelled gas depends on when a discharge of the firearm occurs;
- a bolt piston configured to interface with the bolt carrier and the gas block;
- a vent piston configured to interface with the bolt carrier and the gas block, wherein the vent piston is further configured to travel in a direction opposite to a direction of travel of the bolt piston in response to being acted upon by the expelled gas;
- and
- a latch coupled to the vent piston, wherein the latch is configured to detachably couple the vent piston to the bolt carrier.
