Abstract
A firearm is disclosed. The firearm can include an upper receiver that includes a bolt. The bolt can include at least one displaceable biasing member that is configured to bias the bolt in a forward state when the at least one biasing member is in an initial state. The bolt can also include a locking wedge that is configured to bias the at least one displaceable biasing member in the initial state. The at least one displaceable biasing member is configured to be displaced from the initial state to a displaced state when a sufficient amount of force is exerted on the at least one displaceable biasing member from the bolt so that the bolt can transition from the forward state to a backward state.

A firearm comprising:
- an upper receiver including a bolt, the bolt including:
- at least one displaceable biasing member that is configured to bias the bolt in a forward state when the at least one biasing member is in an initial state;
- and
- a locking wedge that is configured to bias the at least one displaceable biasing member in the initial state,
- wherein the at least one displaceable biasing member is configured to be displaced from the initial state to a displaced state when a sufficient amount of force is exerted on the at least one displaceable biasing member from the bolt so that the bolt can transition from the forward state to a backward state.
A firearm comprising:
- an upper receiver including a bolt, the bolt including:
- at least one displaceable biasing member that is configured to bias the bolt in a forward state when the at least one biasing member is in an initial state;
- a locking wedge that is configured to bias the at least one displaceable biasing member in the initial state;
- and
- a buffer that interfaces with the locking wedge,
- wherein the at least one displaceable biasing member is configured to be displaced from the initial state to a displaced state when a sufficient amount of force is exerted on the at least one displaceable biasing member from the bolt so that the bolt can transition from the forward state to a backward state, wherein displacement of the bolt causes displacement of the buffer via the locking wedge.
