Abstract
A handguard adapter assembly operable to couple a high recoil accessory to a firearm. The handguard adapter assembly comprises a mounting system operable to be coupled to the firearm. The mounting system can be configured to be disposed around a substantially tubular member and can comprise a lower clamp and an upper clamp operably engaged with the lower clamp. The handguard adapter assembly can also comprise a lower handguard operably coupled to the lower clamp and an upper handguard operably coupled to the lower handguard.

A handguard adapter assembly operable to couple a high recoil accessory to a firearm, the handguard adapter assembly comprising:
- a mounting system operable to be coupled to the firearm, the mounting system comprising:
- a lower clamp;
- and
- an upper clamp operably engaged with the lower clamp;
- a lower handguard operably coupled to the lower clamp;
- and
- an upper handguard operably coupled to the lower handguard,
- wherein the mounting system is configured to be disposed around a substantially tubular member.
A handguard adapter assembly comprising:
- a lower handguard operable to couple to a mounting system having a proximal end and a distal end opposite the proximal end, the lower handguard having a trunnion mounting assembly on the proximal end, the trunnion mounting assembly receivable by an opening formed in a trunnion;
- and
- an upper handguard operable to be coupled to the lower handguard, the upper handguard positioned over a substantially tubular member.
A handguard adapter assembly comprising:
- a lower handguard operable to couple to a mounting system having a proximal end and a distal end opposite the proximal end, the mounting system operable to be coupled to a firearm;
- a trunnion mounting assembly extending from the proximal end of the lower handguard and operable to be received by an opening formed in a trunnion, the trunnion mounting assembly comprising:
- a lower wedge;
- and
- an upper wedge, the upper wedge coupled to the lower wedge by a fastener, the upper wedge translatable relative to the lower wedge by rotation of the fastener.
