Abstract
In a firearm gun grip, the rigid front force of the gun grip is replaced with a sliding grip panel, which inserts into a conjugate panel recess in the gun grip. The panel recess contains multiple coiled compression springs, which extend between the interior forward end of the grip panel and the rear surface of the panel recess. The compression of the springs, under the inward constrictive force of a shooter's hand on the gun grip, produces an opposing outward expansive force, which changes in response to the degree of insertion of the grip panel into the panel recess, thereby serving to stabilize the gun grip and improve aiming accuracy.
Claims10
A reverse pressure mechanism for a gun grip of a firearm, comprising:
- an oblong grip panel, having a generally arcuate-rectangular lateral cross section, with a arcuate closed forward panel end and a rectangular open inner panel end, wherein the grip panel forms no part of a cocking mechanism of the firearm, and wherein the inner panel end is adapted to slide through an insertion width into a conjugate panel recess in the gun grip;
- multiple coiled compression springs, each having a proximal end, which engages an interior surface of the forward panel end of the grip panel, and a distal end, which engages a rear inner surface of the panel recess in the gun grip, wherein the compression springs are adapted to compress so as exert a outward expansive force against an inward constricting force exerted on the forward panel end of the grip panel, and so as to resist insertion of the inner panel end into the panel recess in the gun grip, thereby imparting to the gun grip a stabilizing balance of forces between the outward expansive force of the compression springs and the inward constricting force exerted on the forward panel end of the gun grip, and thereby reducing the inward constricting force required for stable aiming of the firearm.
