LOUIS'IE. SMITH; OF ITI-IACA, NEW YORK.
GUNSTOCK FASTENING.
Application; filed; August 27,- 1925.. Serial No. 52,896.
To a whomc't may concern:
Be itknown thatI', Louis P. SMITH, a citizen of the UnitedStates of. America,,residing at Ithaca, in the county of- Tompkins and State-of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Gunstock Fastenings, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to new. and useful improvements in gun stock fastenings.
The primary objectof the invention is the provisionof a-novel fastening means for securing a gun stock tothe frame insuch a manner. that the frame end of the stock will berigidly held inplace without danger of spreadingor loosening.
A further object of the invention is the provision of a novel form of connection between the stock draw-up means andthe gun frame.
Other objects and advantages of the invention-will be apparent during the course of the followin description.
In the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification and inwhichlike numerals are employed to designate like parts throughout the same,
Figure 1 is aside elevational view, partly in section, ofafragmentary portion of a gun and illustrates a novel manner of fastening a gun stock to a gun frame.
Figure 2 is a top plan view of a fragmentary portion of the structure shown in Fig. 1,
Figure 3 is a detail view of a tang post shown in elevation and top plan, and
Figure 4 is a fragmentary top plan view of the frame end of the gun stock shown in Figs. 1 and 2.
In the drawing, wherein for the purpose of illustration is shown a preferred embodiment of this invention, the numeral 5 designates a gun frame having the top tang 6 and the bottom tang 7 suitably fastened thereto. The frame 5 is formed, on opposite sides of the tangs 6 and 7, with the mortised portions 8 which extend perpendicularly and in parallelism.
The reference numeral 9 designates the gun stock to be fastened to the frame 5 and includes a bore'10 extending longitudinally of the butt portion of the stock and communicating with a smaller bore 11 which starts at the inner end of the bore and extends to the perpendicularly extending cutout portion 12. The cutout portion 12 formed'in the frame end of the stock. produces the furcations 13 which have at their free ends the perpendicularly extending tenons 14 which are adapted to be received in the mortises 8 in the frame 5. It will now be seen that the mortise and tenon joint formed by the elements designated by the numerals 8 and 14 willprevent' the stock 9 from. spreading laterally in either directioninrespect to the frame. In Fig. 4 the furcations13 are illustrated as being countersunk to form a let ge 15 which extends entirely. around the margin of the cutout portion12. It is to beunderstoodthat the opposite sides of the furcations 13 are formed in the same manner. These ledges 15 provide a resting place for the top and bottom tangs 6 and 7 respectively.
In Fig. 3 there is shown a tang post 16 which has a boss 17 formed at each end and extending axially therefrom. mediate portion ofthe post 16 is transversely bored at 18 and internally screw threaded, as illustrated. The post 16 and bosses17 are axially screw threaded at 19, as illustrated. In Fig. 1, the top tang 6 is illustrated as being. formed with a countersunk screw opening20 which is intended to receive one of the bosses 17 of the post 16 and the tan-g screw 21, the head of the screw 21 being received in the countersunk portion of the hole 20. The lower tang 6 is also provided with an opening 22 which receives the remaining boss 17 of the tank post 16. This last mentioned boss is secured in place by the lower tang screw 23 which also fastens the rear end of the trigger guard 2% to the tang.
Extending through the bore 11 of the stock 9 is a draw bolt 25 vhich is threaded at its free end for being received within the transverse opening 18 formed in the tang post 16. The head 26 of this draw bolt 25 is provided with a kerf for receiving the operative end of a screw driver, or other similar tool, so that the draw bolt may be rotated to draw the stock 9 toward the frame 5 to rigidly fasten these elements together. For the purpose of preventing loosening of the draw bolt 25, due to recoil action or the like, a split, spring washer 27 is arranged inwardly of the draw bolt head 26.
It will now be seen that the stock 9 may be very efficiently and satisfactorily connected to the gun frame 5 and that the frame end of the stock is positively pre- The intervented from spreading laterally in either direction, due to the mortise and tenon joint formed by the frame 5 and furcati'ons 13 of the stock 9.
It is to be understood that the form of this invention herewith shown and described is to be taken as a preferred example of the same, and that various changes in the shape, size, and arrangement of parts may be resorted to without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the sub joined claims.
Having thus described the invention, I claim 1. In a device of the type described, a gun frame having a pair of mortise cuts at its rear end, a stock bifurcated at its front end and having tenons formed on the end faces of the furcations to be received'in the mortise cuts, and means for drawing the frame and stock together.
2. In a device of the type described, a gun frame having a pair of mortise cuts at its rear end, top and bottom tangs for said frame, removable means connecting the free ends of said tangs, a stock bifurcated at its front end and having tenons formed on the end faces of the furcations to be received in the mortise cuts, and means carried by the stock and adjustably connected to the said removable means for drawing the frame and stock together.
3. In a device of the type described, a gun frame having a pair of mortise cuts at its rear end, top and bottom tangs for said frame, a removable post connecting the free ends of said tangs, a stock bifurcated at its frame end and having tenons formed on the end faces of the furcations to be received in the mortise cuts, and a bolt carried by the stock and threadedly connected to the removable post for drawing the frame and stock together.
4. In a device of the type described, a gun frame having a pair of mortise cuts at its rear end, top and bottom tangs for said frame, said tangs having alined openings at their free ends, a tang post having a reduced boss at each end received within the openings of the tangs, means for fastening the bosses in said openings, a stock bifurcated at its front end and having tenons formed on the end faces of the furcations to be received in the mortise cuts, and a bolt carried by the stock and threadedly connected to the tang post for drawingth'e frame and stock together.
5. In a device of the type described, a gun frame having a pair of mortise cuts at its rear end, top and bottom tangs for said frame, said tangs having alined openings at their free ends, a tang post having a reduced boss at, each end received within the openings of the tangs, means for fastening the bosses in said openings, a stock bifurcated at its front end and having tenons formed on the end faces of the furcations to be received in the mortise cuts, a bolt carried by the stock and threadedly connected to the tang post for drawing the frame and stock together, and means associated with the head of said bolt for preventing loosening of the bolt due to jars caused by recoil action of the gun.
In testimony whereof I afIiX my signature.
LOUIS P. SMITH.
