Abstract
The claimed invention relates to an adapter for quickly and easily attaching a booster, trap or silencer to the barrel of a firearm.
Description
- The invention relates generally to bushing type adapter for a firearm. More specifically, it relates to a means for quickly and easily attaching a booster, muzzle brake, solvent trap or silencer to the barrel of a firearm
- Many types of firearm barrels provide exterior threads. It would be advantageous to provide an easily removable adapter for attaching additional items to the barrel of a firearm. One such attachment is known as a solvent trap. Solvent traps are used to catches any solvents that drip out the muzzle end of the barrel while cleaning the firearm. Additional uses include attachment means for muzzle boosters or recoil boosters. Such devices are used to improve the reliability of the recoil mechanism. The adapter could also be used to attach a noise suppressor to the barrel of a firearm.
- The adapter provides a threaded aperture which is attachable to the end of a firearm barrel. Several sizes and thread types are necessary to match each type of firearm barrel. Adapter provides a threaded aperture for attaching accessories including noise suppressors, boosters and solvent traps, among other things.

FIG. 1 shows a side and back perspective view of the adapter. -
FIG. 2 shows a side elevational view of the adapter. -
FIG. 3 shows a cross-sectional view of the adapter. - Now referring to the drawings in detail wherein like numerals refer to like elements throughout,
FIG. 2 shows a side view of one embodiment of theadapter 1.Adapter 1 is a generally toroid or donut shaped object As shown, the perimeter of theadapter 1 provides a textured orknurled circumference 11 so that the adapter 1 a can be attached to the barrel of a firearm.Adapter 1 provides acentral aperture 13 designed to accommodate a cleaning device in the event of use as a solvent trap.Central aperture 13 also allows passage of a bullet or other projectile in the case of use of theadapter 1 as a silencer or booster. -
Adapter 1 comprises afirst end 5 and asecond end 7. Theinterior 15 of thefirst end 5 of thecentral aperture 13 is threaded or partially threaded 17 so as to accommodate an exteriorly threaded firearm barrel. It is critical thatadapter 1 aligns with the firearm barrel to avoid any misalignment issues with the use of adapter with a booster or noise suppressor. - The
exterior 19 of thesecond end 7 of theadapter 1 has anexterior thread 21.Exterior thread 21 can be matched to any type of attachment. Among those devices suitable for use withadapter 1 are boosters, solvent traps and noise suppressors.
