Abstract
A firearm muzzle accessory coupling device improvement system and method. The coupling device provides a front alignment taper of 17-25 degrees included angle, and an intermediate outer diameter providing a thread of 14 to 18 threads per inch. The muzzle accessory provides a mounting interface socket having an operatively associated thread on the inner circumference of a through bore. The threads of the coupling device and muzzle accessory effectuate mating between the coupling device and the firearm muzzle accessory in a single axial orientation.
Claims11
A muzzle accessory coupling system, the system comprising:
- a coupling interface comprising:
- a body terminating at a body taper, wherein the body taper is approximately 17 to 25 degrees included angle;
- and
- an outer diameter of the body having an external thread;
- and
- a socket comprising:
- the socket extending from a rear end to a forward end;
- an internal thread dimensioned to operatively associate with the external thread of the body, wherein the internal thread is inward of the rear end enabling bayonet insertion prior to a first mechanical communication between said threads;
- a socket taper at the forward end, wherein the socket taper is dimensions to snugly receive the body taper, and
- wherein the internal thread is spaced apart from the forward end and the forward end so that the first mechanical communication is required prior to a second mechanical communication between said tapers,
- whereby a rigid alignment of bores of the coupling interface and the socket is obtained.
