Compressed gas gun front grip having battery access panel
A foregrip for a projectile launcher is disclosed. The foregrip includes a proximal longitudinal end mounted to a projectile launcher and a distal longitudinal end positioned away from a projectile launcher. An access panel is hinged to a battery compartment at the distal longitudinal end of the foregrip. A release button separates the access panel from the foregrip. The release button is located on the proximal longitudinal end of the foregrip.
1. A foregrip for a projectile launcher, the foregrip comprising:
a proximal longitudinal end mounted to a projectile launcher and a distal longitudinal end positioned away from a projectile launcher;
a battery compartment;
an access panel hinged to the battery compartment at the distal longitudinal end of the foregrip; and
a release button for separating the access panel from the foregrip, wherein the release button is located on the proximal longitudinal end of the foregrip; wherein actuation of the release button is prevented when the foregrip is mounted to the projectile launcher.
2. The foregrip of claim 1 , further comprising a hinge for mounting the access panel to the foregrip.
3. The foregrip of claim 2 , wherein the hinge is mounted to the distal longitudinal end of the foregrip.
4. The foregrip of claim 2 , wherein the hinge extends longitudinally along the foregrip at a side of the battery compartment.
5. The foregrip of claim 1 , wherein the release button is positioned to be inaccessible below a barrel when assembled on a projectile launcher.
6. A projectile launcher comprising:
a main body;
a barrel removably mounted to the main body;
a foregrip mounted to the main body, the foregrip having:
a proximal end mounted to the barrel and a distal end positioned away from the barrel,
an internal battery compartment,
an access panel, and
a release button at the proximal end of the foregrip for separating the access panel from the foregrip,
wherein when the barrel is in a mounted position on the main body, the barrel prevents actuation of the release button.
7. The projectile launcher of claim 6 , wherein the main body includes a frame extending into the foregrip, and the foregrip has a rear, wherein the access panel is separable from the frame and the rear.
