Disassembly devices for use with firearms and firearms including such disassembly devices
Disassembly devices for use with firearms and firearms including such disassembly devices are disclosed. An example firearm includes a frame; a breech slide to be coupled to the frame; a barrel; a trigger bar disposed within the frame; and an arm to be pivotable about an axis between a locked position and a unlocked position, the arm being movable to the unlocked position from the locked position based on a magazine engaging an end of the arm, the arm being movable to the locked position from the unlocked position based on the magazine being spaced from the end of the arm or the magazine not being fully received within the firearm, in the locked position, the arm to interact with the trigger bar to secure the trigger bar, in the unlocked position, the lug to be spaced from the trigger bar to enable the trigger bar to move.
1. An apparatus for use with a firearm, comprising:
a shaft to be disposed within the firearm, the shaft being rotatable via a handle between a first locked position and a first unlocked position, in the first locked position, the shaft to secure the barrel relative to the firearm, in the first unlocked position, the shaft to enable the barrel to be separated from the firearm;
a disassembly arm to be pivotable about an axis between a second locked position and a second unlocked position, when the shaft is in the first locked position and the disassembly arm is in the second locked position, a first end of the disassembly arm to interact with the shaft to secure the shaft in the first locked position, when the shaft is in the first locked position and the disassembly arm is in the second unlocked position, the first end of the disassembly arm to be spaced from the shaft to enable the shaft to be rotated from the first locked position, the disassembly arm being movable to the second locked position from the second unlocked position based on a magazine engaging a second end of the disassembly arm, the disassembly arm being movable to the second unlocked position from the second locked position based on the magazine being spaced from the second end of the disassembly arm or the magazine not being fully received within the firearm.
2. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the disassembly arm is biased toward the second unlocked position.
3. The apparatus of claim 2 , further including a spring to bias the disassembly arm toward the second unlocked position.
4. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein when the shaft is in the first locked position and the disassembly arm is in the second locked position, the first end of the disassembly arm is to be disposed in a recess of the shaft to secure the shaft in the first locked position.
5. The apparatus of claim 1 , further including a biasing element to pivot the disassembly arm to the second unlocked position when the magazine is spaced from the second end of the disassembly or the magazine is not fully received within the firearm.
6. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the disassembly arm includes a lug to be engaged by the magazine to move the disassembly arm from the second unlocked position when the magazine engages the second end of the disassembly arm or when the magazine is fully received within the firearm.
7. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein when the magazine engages the second end of the disassembly arm or when the magazine is fully received within the firearm, the disassembly arm is in the second locked position to engage the shaft.
8. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the shaft includes a protrusion, in the first locked position, the protrusion to interact with the barrel to secure the barrel relative to the firearm.
9. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein when the disassembly arm is in the second unlocked position and the shaft is in the first unlocked position, the shaft to enable the barrel, a breech slide, and a recoil spring assembly to be separated from the firearm.
10. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the shaft includes a recess to enable the barrel, a breech slide, and a recoil spring assembly to be separated from the firearm when the shaft is in the first unlocked position.
11. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the disassembly arm includes a lug movable between a third locked position and a third unlocked position, in the third locked position, the lug to interact with a trigger bar to secure the trigger bar, in the third unlocked position, the lug to be spaced from the trigger bar to enable the trigger bar to move.
12. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the lug being movable to the third unlocked position is based on the magazine engaging the second end of the disassembly arm, the lug being movable to the third locked position based on the magazine being spaced from the second end of the disassembly arm or the magazine not being fully received within the firearm.
13. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the trigger bar includes a recess to receive the lug when the lug is in the third locked position.
14. An apparatus, comprising:
a frame;
a shaft to be disposed within the frame, the shaft being rotatable via a handle between a first locked position and a first unlocked position, in the first locked position, the shaft to secure a barrel relative to the frame, in the first unlocked position, the shaft to enable the barrel to be separated from the frame;
a disassembly arm to be pivotable about an axis between a second locked position and a second unlocked position, when the shaft is in the first locked position and the disassembly arm is in the second locked position, a first end of the disassembly arm to interact with the shaft to secure the shaft in the first locked position, when the shaft is in the first locked position and the disassembly arm is in the second unlocked position, the first end of the disassembly arm to be spaced from the shaft to enable the shaft to be rotated from the first locked position, the disassembly arm being movable to the second locked position from the second unlocked position based on a magazine engaging a second end of the disassembly arm, the disassembly arm being movable to the second unlocked position from the second locked position based on the magazine being spaced from the second end of the disassembly arm or the magazine not being fully received within the frame.
15. The apparatus of claim 14 , wherein the frame is a firearm frame.
16. A firearm, comprising:
a frame;
a breech slide to be coupled to the frame, the breech slide being movable between a forward position and a rearward position;
a barrel to be disposed within the breech slide;
a shaft to be disposed within the frame, the shaft being rotatable via a handle between a first locked position and a first unlocked position, in the first locked position, the shaft to secure the barrel relative to the frame, in the first unlocked position, the shaft to enable the barrel to be separated from the frame;
a disassembly arm to be pivotable about an axis between a second locked position and a second unlocked position, when the shaft is in the first locked position and the disassembly arm is in the second locked position, a first end of the disassembly arm to interact with the shaft to secure the shaft in the first locked position, when the shaft is in the first locked position and the disassembly arm is in the second unlocked position, the first end of the disassembly arm to be spaced from the shaft to enable the shaft to be rotated from the first locked position, the disassembly arm being movable to the second locked position from the second unlocked position based on a magazine engaging a second end of the disassembly arm, the disassembly arm being movable to the second unlocked position from the second locked position based on the magazine being spaced from the second end of the disassembly arm or the magazine not being fully received within the frame.
