Modular firearm block
A modular firearm block that can attach to the frame of a firearm. The block can have a member that can attach to a recess on the frame. The block can also have holes for a pin and a pin connector which also attach the block to the frame of the firearm.
1. A firearm comprising:
a frame comprising a block member recess and a pin connector member recess;
a barrel;
a slide; and
a sight block comprising:
a block member configured to removably attach to the block member recess;
a barrel hole;
a pin hole below the barrel hole;
a pin connector hole running through the member and into the pin hole; and
a pin and a pin connector,
wherein the pin connector is threaded through the pin connector hole and the pin is threaded through the pin hole, wherein the pin removably attaches to the pin connector in the pin hole, and
wherein the sight block with the pin and the pin connector attached can removably attach to the frame by connecting the member to the member recess and the pin connector to the pin connector recess.
2. The firearm of claim 1 , wherein the pin is a threaded screw, bolt, or rod.
3. The firearm of claim 2 , wherein the pin connector is threaded to receive the pin.
4. The firearm of claim 3 , wherein the pin comprises a pin head and a pin body, wherein the pin head can be operably engaged with a screwdriver.
5. The firearm of claim 1 , wherein the sight block is configured to be covered by the slide while the firearm is assembled but not firing.
6. The firearm of claim 1 , wherein the sight block is configured to remain in a fixed position while the firearm is firing.
7. The firearm of claim 1 , wherein the sight block has beveled edges.
8. The firearm of claim 1 , wherein the sight block has rounded edges.
9. The firearm of claim 1 , wherein the sight block is comprised of at least one selected from the group of steel, polymer, and carbon fiber.
10. A firearm comprising:
a frame comprising a block member recess and a pin connector recess;
a sight block comprising:
a block member configured to removably attach to the block member recess;
a barrel hole;
a pin hole below the barrel hole;
a pin connector hole running through the block member and into the pin hole; and
a pin and a pin connector,
wherein the pin connector is threaded through the pin connector hole and the pin is threaded through the pin hole, wherein the pin removably attaches to the pin connector in the pin hole, and
wherein the sight block with the pin and the pin connector attached can removably attach to the frame by connecting the member to the member recess and the pin connector to the pin connector recess.
11. The firearm of claim 10 , wherein the pin is a threaded screw, bolt, or rod.
12. The firearm of claim 10 , wherein the pin connector is threaded to receive the pin.
13. The firearm of claim 10 , wherein the pin comprises a pin head and a pin body, wherein the pin head can be operably engaged with a screwdriver.
14. The firearm of claim 10 , wherein the member recess is itself within a barrel recess on the frame.
15. The firearm of claim 10 , wherein the sight block is comprised of at least one selected from the group of steel, polymer, and carbon fiber.
16. The firearm of claim 10 , wherein the pin connector member recess overlaps with a barrel recess on the frame.
17. The firearm of claim 10 , wherein the block member and the block member recess comprise a dovetail attachment mechanism.
18. The firearm of claim 10 , wherein the pin connector member and the pin connector member recess comprise a mortise and tenon attachment mechanism, wherein the pin connector member is the mortise and the pin connector member recess is the tenon.
19. The firearm of claim 10 , wherein removing the pin from the pin connector will release the pin connector member from the pin connector member recess.
20. A sight block comprising:
a block member configured to removably attach to a block member recess in a firearm frame;
a barrel hole;
a pin hole below the barrel hole;
a pin connector hole running through the block member and into the pin hole; and
a pin and a pin connector,
wherein the pin connector is threaded through the pin connector hole and the pin is threaded through the pin hole, wherein the pin removably attaches to the pin connector in the pin hole, and
wherein the sight block with the pin and the pin connector attached can removably attach to the frame by connecting the member to the member recess and the pin connector to the pin connector recess.
