f Applioationilled September 2t, 1 01. fieriallfl'o- 776E140. mom aem' 1 2'0 all whom it may concern: Be it known that I, Ross M. G. PHILLIPS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Los Angeles, in the county of Los Angeles and 5 State of California, have invented new and useful Improvements in Army Equipments, of which the following is a specification.
An object of this invention is to provide convenient means for carrying a firearm in a to most compact form and for ready and immediateservice and to facilitate the use thereof under conditions wherein the hands of the user may be temporarily required to be free for uses/other than the manipulation of the t 5 firearm without danger of losingthe firearm. This invention includes a novel accoutrement by which the firearm is held more ready for instant action.
I propose by means of this invention to enno able cavalrymen and infantrymen to so carry hand while guiding his'horse with'the otherh In this invention I may employ an extensible stock, togetherwith a small firearm,which is adapted for ready and convenient attachment to the front end thereof when itis desired to discharge the firearm'from the shoulder and to serve as a holster for the firearm when the latter is not in user r I also propose to apply theinvention to firearms in which thest'ock or shoulder-piece is permanently attached.
I also propose to provide means whereby the firearm at the convenience of the wearer 4.0 will be held at the belt and when desired can be instantly adjusted to hang immediately under the armpit, so that when the" user desires to discharge the firearm from the shoulder he can with one hand bring it into 5 properposition-at the shoulder, the shoulderstrap serving as a guide and adj nsting device to bring the shoulder-piece or stock of the firearm into position in front of the shoulder 4 for aiming and firing, and in case he drops the firearm it will immediately swing into pojustably attached by suitable mea sition below the armpit ready for immedis action when required. By this arrangeme I propose to do away with any danger of l( of the firearm while'in action and to provi for using the firearm in a quicker. and bett way than heretofore. Said' shoulder-strap preferably adj ustable=as to length, and mea are provided for the ready and instant a justment of the firearm from its position the shoulder to a position at the belt of t wearer, and .vice versa.
The invention is applicable in various wa; and the shoulderstrap may be extend around the body diagonally from below t armpit over the opposite shoulder, or it m; extend from under the armpit up over t shoulder immediately above.
The accompanying drawings illustrate r invention in a preferred form. -FigureI shows the improvement in carr ing position. A small firearm is shown the holster, and the holster-is hanging at t belt; Dotted lines indicate the position of t butt of the stock when the firearm is attach to the holster and the'same is in position u derneath thearmpit of the wearer... Fig. shows'the improvement as it appearswh in firing position at the shoulder of the wean Dotted lines indicate the position into whi the firearm will swing beneath the arm whennotin. use; Fig. III is a VlGWSllOWll amodification of the improvement inifiri: position, on" the wearer. Dotted lines it cate thefcarryi'ng position of the firearm the'. principal construction, wherein the BhOl der-strap extendsdiagonally from one am pit overtho opposite shoulder. Fig. IV is: end view of the holster,-showing the eye al the hook for attachment to the shoulder stra 1 indicates a firearm, and 2 a detachal stock therefor. In the construction shown t detachable stock embodies the holster {for small firearm, the front end of the holster i ing constructed to be attached. to the hand of thefirearm. Preferablytheshoulder-stra is attached to the edges of the stock, as clear shown-in Fig. I, at the eye 4 and the loop so that the butt of thestock is held'in tr position at the shoulder. The'eyei is:
flier-strap to bring the butt of the fire- ;o the shoulder and to the belt 6, and
'ersa. -Said eye can be attached to and of adjustable attachment between theand the shoulderstrap may be emd, or at pleasure the shoulder-strap may 'manently of the length required to bring utt of the firearm to the shoulder and the armpit. The shoulder-strap is rably adjustable as to length, as indiby the buckle at 8, and the hook 7 for aing the stock to the shoulder-strap to ;he butt of the firearm at the shoulder a wearer is also preferably adjustable on map and is adapted to catch in the eye )p 4, as shown in Fig. II, to hold the of the firearm as required. In case the der strap is passed 'from below the armover the shoulder against which the )f the firearm is to be held means are filed for preventing the shoulder-strap sliding E of said shoulder. a The loop ig.'lll, fastened to the coat of the wearer, ates a form of such means. indicates k on the, side of the holster to hook upon elt 6 to keep the holster from swinging supported from the shoulder.
practice the firearm may be suspended the shoulder-strap and allowed to hang a belt of the wearer and may be secured to by the belt-hook 10 until the wearer s ready for action, whereupon the shoul- ;rap will be adjusted to bring the firento position below the armpit, where it dy to be brought instantly into use with land, leaving the other hand free. If
on. the form shown in Fig. III 3designates rp encircling the shoulder and sliding gh the loop 9, the firearm being desirattached thereto by suitable means, (inad by the snap-hook 13.)
rat I claim, and desire to secure by Letatent of the United States, is.-
