Abstract
A device and method for carrying, loading and cocking a firearm 40, such as a pistol or similar. A first element 10; 110 is attached to the firearm. A second element 20 is slidably disposed and displaceable within and away from the first element. A spring element 30; 130 is generally disposed in relation to the first and second elements such that the second element is fixed within said first element until a predetermined force is applied to either element. The invented device and method allows a firearm such as a pistol to be drawn, loaded and cocked in one continous movement, using only one hand.
Claims16
Method for loading and cocking a firearm, comprising a frame assembly and a slide assembly and being associated with a first element generally attached to said firearm:
- a second element slidably disposed and displaceable within and away from said first element;
- and a spring element generally disposed in relation to said first and second elements such that said second element is fixedly retainable within said first element, and where said spring element is designed to retain said second element within said first element until a predetermined force is applied to either one of said elements;
- said method comprising the displacement of said frame assembly while said first and second elements and said spring element essentially restrains the slide assembly in a stationary position.
In a firearm having a frame and slide assembly, wherein said frame and slide assembly are moveable relative to each other, a device for virtually simultaneously loading, cocking and releasing the firearm, said device comprising:
- a first element attached to the slide assembly of said firearm;
- a second element attachable to a support other than said firearm;
- said first and second elements being slidably engageable and disengageable upon relative movement between said firearm and said second element when said second element is attached to the support;
- a spring member provided on one of said first and second elements to impose a force between the first and second elements that restrains slidable movement of said first and second elements relative to each other until a predetermined sliding force is applied to either of said first and second elements to enable said first and second elements to be disengaged such that said firearm is separated from said second element, whereby separation of said firearm from said second element when said second element is attached to said support causes said firearm to be loaded, cocked and released.
