Abstract

A stock assembly for attachment to a firearm assembly is described. The stock assembly includes a buttstock having a longitudinal conduit and a locking member; a connector tube with, front and back ends slidable within the buttstock conduit between a fully inserted position and a fully extended position, the tube having a longitudinal conduit; an attachment member slidable within the tube conduit between a forward position and a rearward position, the attachment member having a front end attachable to the firearm assembly and a rear end; a spring within the connector tube engaging the rear end of the attachment member, the spring urging the attachment member toward its forward position; and locking means preventing rotation of the attachment member relative to the connector tube, while allowing the attachment member to move within the tube between its forward and rearward positions.

Claims (35)

1. A replacement stock assembly for attachment to a stock section of a firearm assembly comprising:

a) a buttstock having a connector tube conduit;

b) a connector tube slidable within said connector tube conduit, said connector tube having an attachment member conduit;

c) an attachment member slidable within said attachment member conduit, said attachment member having a front end attachable to said stock section, and a rear end;

d) a spring within said attachment member conduit urging said attachment member forward; and

e) a locking member preventing rotation of said attachment member relative to said connector tone while allowing said attachment member to move longitudinally within said attachment member conduit.

2. The replacement stock assembly of claim 1 , wherein said attachment member is attached to said stock section with a transverse pin.

3. The replacement stock assembly of claim 1 , wherein said attachment member is bonded to said stock section.

4. The replacement stock assembly of claim 1 , wherein said connector tube includes a wall with a longitudinal slot, and said locking member is a pin extending transversely through said slot and into said attachment member.

5. The replacement stock assembly of claim 4 , wherein said longitudinal slot has a front end, said pin engaging said slot front end to prevent forward movement of said attachment member.

6. The replacement stock assembly of claim 1 , further including a bolt to secure said pin to said attachment member.

7. The replacement stock assembly of claim 1 , wherein said buttstock includes a retractable latch pin, and said connector tube includes a plurality of spaced latch pin recesses, said latch pin being selectively insertable into said latch pin recesses to lock said connector tube relative to said buttstock.

8. The replacement stock assembly of claim 1 , wherein said firearm is a rifle.

9. A replacement stock assembly for attachment to a stock section of a firearm assembly comprising:

a) a buttstock having a connector tube conduit;

b) a connector tube slidable within said connector tube conduit, said connector tube having an attachment member conduct and a wall with a longitudinal slot;

c) an attachment member slidable within said attachment member conduit between forward and rearward positions, said attachment member having a front end attachable to said stock section, and a rear end;

d) a spring within said attachment member conduit urging said attachment member forward; and

e) a pin extending transversely through said longitudinal slot and into said attachment member preventing rotation of said attachment member relative to said connector tube while allowing said attachment member to move longitudinally within said attachment member conduit.

10. The replacement stock assembly of claim 9 , wherein said longitudinal slot has a front end, said pin engaging said slot front end to prevent forward movement of said attachment member.

11. The replacement stock assembly of claim 9 , further including a bolt to secure said pin to said attachment member.

12. The replacement stock assembly of claim 9 , wherein said attachment member is bonded to said stock section.

13. The replacement stock assembly of claim 9 , wherein said buttstock includes a retractable latch pin, and said connector tube includes a plurality of spaced latch pin recesses, said latch pin being selectively insertable into said latch pin recesses to lock said connector tube relative to said buttstock.

14. The replacement stock assembly of claim 9 , wherein said firearm, is a rifle.

15. A replacement stock assembly for attachment to the receiver of a firearm comprising:

a) a buttstock having a connector tube conduit;

b) a connector tube slidable within said connector tube conduit, said connector tube having an attachment member conduit;

b) a pistol grip;

c) an attachment member slidable within the attachment member conduit, the attachment member having front end integral with said pistol grip;

d) a spring within the attachment member conduit urging said attachment member forward; and

e) a locking member preventing rotation of said attachment member relative to said connector tube while allowing said attachment member to move longitudinally within said attachment member conduit.

16. The replacement stock assembly of claim 15 , further including a stock forend integral with said pistol grip.

17. The replacement stock assembly of claim 15 , wherein said connector tube includes a wall with a longitudinal slot, and said locking member is a pin extending through said slot and into said attachment member.
