Abstract
A weapon grip assembly (16) for attachment to a forward portion of a weapon is provided. The invention includes a base assembly (20) supported for operative engagement by a handle (22). The base assembly includes clamps (24) adapted to be secured to a forward portion of the weapon and further includes a post (38) having a clamp end adapted to retain the clamps (24) for pivot motion with respect thereto. The post (38) of the base assembly (20) is received within a bore of the handle, a mandrel (32) being interposed between the handle (22) and the clamps (24) of the base assembly (20). As the base assembly (20) is drawn into the handle (22), by rotation of the handle (22) about the post (38) of the base assembly (20), the mandrel (32) receives the clamp end of the post (38), with an upper free surface thereof engaging the clamps for pivoted closure about a portion of the weapon in furtherance of securing the weapon grip assembly (16) thereto.
Claims (38)
1. A weapon grip for supporting a forward portion of a weapon, said weapon grip comprising a clamp base, a portion of said clamp base being received by a handle, and clamps supported upon said clamp base for pivot motion with respect thereto in furtherance of grasping the forward portion of the weapon.
2. The weapon grip assembly of claim 1 wherein said clamps are opposingly paired.
3. The weapon grip assembly of claim 2 wherein said clamps upwardly extend from said clamp base.
4. The weapon grip assembly of claim 3 wherein said clamps are outwardly extendible from an axial centerline of said handle so as to receive the forward portion of the weapon.
5. The weapon grip assembly of claim 3 wherein said clamps are biased in an open condition so as to receive the forward portion of the weapon.
6. The weapon grip assembly of claim 5 wherein each of said clamps comprises a profiled surface.
7. The weapon grip assembly of claim 5 wherein each of said clamps comprises a rail receiving surface for engaging a lateral edge of a rail of the forward portion of the weapon.
8. The weapon grip assembly of claim 6 wherein said clamps are pivotally drawn together so as to form a rail receiving channel within which a rail of the forward portion of the weapon is captured.
9. The weapon grip assembly of claim 8 wherein said clamps are securable about the rail in a locked condition.
10. The weapon grip assembly of claim 9 wherein said handle includes a stowage compartment.
11. The weapon grip assembly of claim 10 wherein said stowage compartment is accessible at a free end of said handle.
12. The weapon grip assembly of claim 11 wherein said free end of said handle is adapted to receive a cap.
13. The weapon grip assembly of claim 12 wherein said handle includes a cap for sealing said stowage compartment.
14. The weapon grip assembly of claim 13 wherein said cap is lockingly received at said free end of said handle.
15. The weapon grip assembly of claim 14 wherein said cap is threadingly received at said free end of said handle.
16. The weapon grip assembly of claim 14 wherein said handle has a round cross section.
17. The weapon grip assembly of claim 16 wherein said exterior surface of said handle is profiled.
18. The weapon grip assembly of claim 17 wherein said clamps are reversibly secured to the rail of the forward portion of the weapon upon manipulation of said handle.
19. The weapon grip assembly of claim 18 wherein said exterior surface of said handle includes grooves.
20. The weapon grip assembly of claim 19 wherein said grooves are in a spaced apart condition about a lower portion of said handle.
21. The weapon grip assembly of claim 20 wherein said spaced apart grooves circumscribe said lower portion of said handle.
22. The weapon grip assembly of claim 1 wherein said clamp base comprises a post having a clamp end adapted to retain said clamps.
23. The weapon grip assembly of claim 22 wherein said clamps are retained at said clamp end of said post for individual pivot motion with respect thereto.
24. The weapon grip assembly of claim 23 wherein each of said clamps are adapted to engage a lateral edge of a rail of the forward portion of the weapon.
25. The weapon grip assembly of claim 24 wherein said post of said clamp base is receivable in an axial bore of said handle.
26. The weapon grip assembly of claim 25 wherein said post is adapted to be reversibly drawn into said axial bore of said handle.
27. The weapon grip assembly of claim 26 wherein said post includes a threaded surface adjacent said clamp end of said clamp base.
28. The weapon grip assembly of claim 27 wherein said threaded surface of said post of said clamp base is reversibly advanceable within said axial bore of said handle upon rotation of said handle with respect to said clamp base.
29. The weapon grip assembly of claim 26 further comprising a mandrel interposed between said handle and said clamps.
30. The weapon grip assembly of claim 29 wherein a portion of said mandrel is configured to receive said clamp end of said clamp base.
31. The weapon grip assembly of claim 29 wherein said mandrel is axially translatable upon said post of said clamp base.
32. The weapon grip assembly of claim 30 wherein said mandrel operatively engages said clamp end of said post so as to limit axial translation of said mandrel upon said post.
33. The weapon grip assembly of claim 31 wherein said mandrel has a portion of an upper surface thereof adapted to operatively engage said clamps.
34. The weapon grip assembly of claim 33 wherein rotation of said handle relative to said clamp base causes pivot closure of said clamps via engagement of said upper portion of an upper surface thereof with said clamps.
35. A weapon grip for selective, reversible attachment to a weapon, said weapon grip comprising a handle from which extends actuatable jaws, and an actuator for actuating said jaws in furtherance of securing said jaws to a portion of a weapon.
36. A convertible weapon grip for supporting a forward portion of a weapon having a modifiable structure, said weapon grip comprising a handle and a clamp actuator supported thereon, and a pair of clamps joined to a portion of said clamp actuator for pivot closure about the forward portion of the weapon upon actuation of said clamp actuator, said pair of clamps being selected from a set of clamp pairs.
37. The convertible weapon grip of claim 36 wherein said set of clamp pairs comprise clamps configured to engage a grenade launcher barrel the weapon.
38. The convertible weapon grip of claim 36 wherein said set of clamp pairs comprise clamps configured to engage a rail of a rail system of the weapon.
