Abstract

A cup handle connector is described. In some examples, the cup handle connector can include a sleeve portion having a surface that substantially conforms to an exterior profile of a cup and an intermediate portion attached to the sleeve portion. The cup handle connector can also include a handle attachment portion attached to the intermediate portion, with the handle attachment portion constructed to attach a weapon handle.

5. The cup handle connector of claim 4 , wherein the rifle handle is an AR-15 rifle handle.

6. The cup handle connector of claim 1 , wherein the sleeve portion, the intermediate portion and the handle attachment portion form a single integrated unit without one or more joints, interfaces, connections, or attachments.

7. A cup handle connector comprising:

a sleeve portion having an interior surface that substantially conforms to an exterior profile of a cup;

an intermediate portion attached to the sleeve portion; and

a handle attachment portion attached to the intermediate portion, wherein the handle attachment portion is constructed to attach to a handle and, in turn, to connect the handle with the intermediate portion, wherein the handle is attached to the handle attachment portion using one or more fasteners, and wherein the handle is at least one of a firearm handle, a gun handle, a rifle handle, a knife handle or a sword handle.

8. The cup handle connector of claim 7 , wherein the rifle handle is an AR-15 rifle handle.

9. The cup handle connector of claim 7 , wherein the sleeve portion, the intermediate portion and the handle attachment portion form a single integrated unit without one or more joints, interfaces, connections, or attachments.
