Abstract

Trigger armor systems and grip armor systems are provided. The trigger armor system may include an integral finger rest, grip, and knuckle guard. The grip armor system may include an integral angle grip and well grip. Trigger and grip armor systems including an integral trigger armor system and grip armor system are also provided.

Claims (23)

1. A trigger and grip armor system comprising:

a trigger armor system comprising:

a finger rest;

a grip; and

a knuckle guard; and

a grip armor system comprising:

an angle grip; and

a well grip,

wherein the angle grip is disposed adjacent a forward portion of the grip armor system, and wherein the well grip is disposed adjacent a rearward portion of the grip armor system,

wherein the well grip comprises an aperture disposed through a central portion of the well grip between a forward portion and a rearward portion of the well grip, and the aperture is angled and extends upward and rearward from a forward end of the well grip,

wherein a forward end of the angle grip is angled and extends downward and rearward toward a midpoint of the aperture of the well grip,

wherein a lower portion of the well grip extends between the forward portion and the rearward portion at a position below the aperture, and

wherein the trigger and grip armor system is configured to couple to an AR-15 or an M16.

2. The trigger and grip armor system of claim 1 , wherein the grip armor system is disposed adjacent a forward portion of the trigger and grip armor system, and wherein the trigger armor system is disposed adjacent a rearward portion of the trigger and grip armor system.

3. The trigger and grip armor system of claim 1 , wherein the trigger and grip armor system is formed from at least one of a polymer, a polymer fiber, and a metal.

4. The trigger and grip armor system of claim 1 , wherein the trigger armor system and the grip armor system are removeably coupleable to a rifle.

5. The trigger and grip armor system of claim 1 , wherein the finger rest is disposed adjacent a forward portion of the trigger armor system.

6. The trigger and grip armor system of claim 5 , wherein a trigger guard extends rearward from the finger rest, and wherein the trigger guard is configured to extend around a portion of a trigger of a rifle when the trigger armor system is coupled to the rifle.

7. The trigger and grip armor system of claim 6 , wherein the grip is disposed adjacent a rearward portion of the trigger armor system, and wherein the trigger guard extends between the finger rest and the grip.

8. The trigger and grip armor system of claim 7 , wherein the knuckle guard extends from the finger rest along the forward portion of the trigger armor system, and wherein the knuckle guard comprises a curved portion such that the knuckle guard extends rearward to a lower portion of the grip.

9. The trigger and grip armor system of claim 1 , wherein a rearward end of the rearward portion extends rearward and upward from the lower portion toward a back end portion of the well grip.

10. The trigger and grip armor system of claim 1 , wherein the angle of the angled grip is substantially perpendicular with the angle of the aperture.

11. The trigger and grip armor system of claim 1 , wherein the trigger armor system and the grip armor system are integral with each other.
