EXTRACTOR FOR AN AUTOLOADING FIREARM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240035768 titled 'EXTRACTOR FOR AN AUTOLOADING FIREARM

Simplified Explanation

The disclosed invention is an extractor for an autoloading firearm. The extractor consists of an extractor body that extends from a proximal end to a distal end. A knuckle is located between the proximal and distal end, and it defines a pin opening that extends crosswise through the extractor. This pin opening has an elongated shape.

During the rearward movement of the bolt after firing, the elongated opening allows the extractor to shift downward and/or forward. This shifting prevents the extractor from pivoting around the extractor pin, and ensures that part of the extractor contacts the bolt.

  • The extractor for an autoloading firearm has an elongated pin opening that allows it to shift downward and/or forward during the rearward movement of the bolt after firing.
  • The knuckle located between the proximal and distal end of the extractor defines the elongated pin opening.
  • The shifting of the extractor prevents it from pivoting around the extractor pin and ensures contact with the bolt.

Potential Applications

  • Firearms manufacturing industry
  • Military and law enforcement agencies
  • Shooting sports and competitions

Problems Solved

  • Prevents the extractor from pivoting around the extractor pin, ensuring proper contact with the bolt.
  • Enhances the reliability and functionality of autoloading firearms.

Benefits

  • Improved extraction and ejection of spent cartridges.
  • Increased reliability and durability of autoloading firearms.
  • Enhanced safety and performance during shooting activities.


Original Abstract Submitted

disclosed is an extractor for an autoloading firearm, the extractor having an extractor body extending a proximal end portion to a distal end portion. a knuckle is between the proximal end portion and the distal end portion and defines a pin opening extending crosswise through the extractor, where the pin opening has an elongated shape. during rearward movement of the bolt after firing, the elongated opening enables the extractor to shift downward and/or forward so that part of the extractor contacts the bolt, thereby preventing the extractor from pivoting about the extractor pin.
