MEANS FOR SEPARABLY U N|TIN'G BARRELS TO STOCKS OF GUNS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 487,465, dated December 6, 1892.
Application filed April 4:, 1892. Serial No. 427,782. (No model.)
T 00% whom it may concern: ceiver and is adapted to stand between the Dcit known that I, THOMAS G. BENNETT, of two sides D D. The sides D D at the rear New Haven, in the county of New Haven and and the part E,which is attached to the stock,
State of Connecticut, have invented a new Im are constructed to abut together, as seen in 55 provement in Firearms; and I do hereby de- Fig.1. The arm F is constructed with a lonclare the following, when taken in connection gitudinal rib G upon each side, and the two with the accompanying drawings and the sides D D are constructed with corresponding letters of reference marked thereon, to be a longitudinal grooves (see Fig. 2) and so that full, clear, and exact description of the same, the forward part of the receiver may. slide 60 1c and which said drawings constitute part of onto the rear part, the ribs G running into this specification, and represent, inthe grooves of the sides until the two parts Figure 1, a side View of the receiver of the abut together at the rear.

As view of the receiver; Fig. 4, the rear portion here represented this 'is accomplished by of the receiver and its part of the stock demeans of a swinging lever H, hungin the arm' tached; Fig. 5, the forward part of the re- F upon a horizontal axis, and so as to swing 7o ceiver detached; Fig. 6, a longitudinal sec- .in a vertical plane, as from the position seen tion cutting on line it x. of Fig. 3; Fig. 7, a in Fig. l to that shown in broken lines in the modification. 7 same figure, and also shown in Fig. 4.

This invention relates to an improvement lever is provided with a suitable handle J by in firearms in which the barrel opens into the which it may be conveniently operated;- On 75 :5 receiver at the rear applicable also to arms the outer side of the lever H is a rib K, and
in which a magazine is arranged beneath the the corresponding side of the receiver :is conbarrel, the object of the invention being to structedwith a groove L, corresponding to construct the arm so that the barrel may be the rib K, and so that when the two parts are readily separated from the stock for the conset together and the lever turned tothe posi- 8o venience of packing, transportation, or for tion seen in Fig. 1 and also seen in Fig. 3the any purpose for which it may be desirable to rib K enters the groove L in the sideD of the detach the barrel from the stock; and the inreceiver, and as the lever is hung to the arm vention consists in the construction, as here- F, so as to make firm engagement therewith,

The rib and groove are conthe well-known Winchester repeating-gun. structed so as to produce a cam-like action,
A represents the receiver, to the forward that the entrance of the rib into-the groove 0 0 end of which the barrel B is attached in the may tend to draw thetwo parts close tousual manner, and as here represented the gether. magazine 0 is arranged beneath the barrel. A spring M is arranged in the arm F so as Both the barrel and magazine open at the to bear upon the pintle N of the lever H, rear into the receiver. The receiver is conand one side of this lever is flattened, as at 5 5 structed in two parts, the two sides or cheeks O, and so that when the lever is turned to the D D being made as a part of the extreme forlocking position this spring will rest upon the ward end of the receiver, to which the barrel flat surface 0 and yieldingly hold the lever is attached. The other part E forms the rear in the closed position, and so that as the lever end of the receiver and is attached to the is turned toward the open position the pintle --I0o stock. From this part E an arm F projects N will operate as a cam to raise the spring.
forward, which forms the bottom of the re To separate the two parts, so as to readily detach the barrel and the forward part of the receiver from the stock and rear portion of the receiver, it is only necessary to turn the lever away from its locked position, as indicated in broken lines, Fig. 1, and then withdraw the barrel and the forward part of the receiver from the stock, and to replace the two parts requires simply a reverse operation. It will be understood that the longitudinal ribs on the rear part of the receiver and the grooves in the forward part may be reversedthat is to say, the ribs may be on. the sides of the forward part of the receiver and the grooves in the rear portion, such modification being too apparent to require illustration. Instead of the locking device hereinbefore described a screw or pin may be introduced transversely through the two s ides and through the arm F, as seen in Fig. 7. The removal of the screw or pin will permit the separation of the two parts.
The modification of the locking device seen in Fig. 7 is sufficient to indicate that any suit-1 able locking device between'the two parts may be employed. Again, the locking device, in stead of being hung to the rear portion of the receiver and so as to engage with the for-.
ward portion, may be hung in the forward part of the receiver, so as to engage with the rear portiona modification also too apparent to require illustration.
The illustration and description of this invention as applied to the Winchester arm will be sufficient to enable those skilled in the art to apply the invention to other constructions of the receiver. The invention is not receiver. I claim- 1. In a firearm, a receiver having a barrel attached to the forward end of the receiver, the receiver constructed in two parts, the forward part carrying the two sides and barrel, the rear part carrying the stock, the said rear part constructed with a forwardly-projecting arm adapted to removably set between the two sides of the forward part of the receiver and the two sides adapted to abut against the rear portion of the receiver, the one partconstructed with longitudinal ribs and the other with corresponding longitudinal grooves, and a locking device substantially such as described between the two parts, whereby they may be detachably secured when set together, substantially as specified.
2. A receiver for firearms, madein two parts, the forward arm carrying the barrel and the two sides of the receiver, the rear part carrying the stock and constructed with an arm projecting-forward, adapted to set between the two sides and form the bottom of the receiver, means, substantially such as described, tointerlock the two parts against vertical movement, a swinging lever arranged upon a transverse axis in' one part near the forward end, the'said lever constructed with a rib and the other part constructed with a groove corresponding to said rib-0n the lever, and whereby the said two parts may be interlocked against longitudinal movement,substanti ally as specified.
In testimony whereof I have signed this specification in the presence of two subscribin'g witnesses.
