Abstract
The modular upper receiver assembly for firearms is an adapter allowing interchanging of barrels of different calibers to attach to an upper receiver assembly. The adapter assembly serves to provide a quick changeover coupling means for connecting an assortment of barrels of different calibers and lengths to the receiver. The coupling includes a barrel retaining bushing and adapter pair with threaded surfaces on the receiver for a threaded engagement, reinforced with threaded fastener compression for improved rigidity.
Claims4
A firearm adapter system for interchanging a plurality of barrels, the system comprising:
- a. a first barrel including a flange;
- b. an upper receiver including internal threads and a plurality of holes;
- c. a hand guard including a plurality of holes;
- d. a plurality of threaded fasteners;
- e. wherein the plurality of threaded fasteners operatively connects the hand guard to the upper receiver;
