Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Various examples of a detachable trigger guard for firearms are described. The trigger guard as a monolithic piece has components including a main body, a first connection portion at a first distal end of the main body, and a second connection portion at a second distal end of the main body opposite the first distal end thereof. At least one of the first connection portion and the second connection portion of the detachable trigger guard is elastically deformable to allow the detachable trigger guard to be removably coupled to a receiver portion of the firearm below a trigger of the firearm with the first connection portion coupled to either or both of a first pair of through holes on the receiver portion of the firearm and with the second connection portion coupled to either or both of a second pair of through holes on the receiver portion of the firearm.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A device implementable on a firearm, comprising: a detachable trigger guard as a monolithic piece having a plurality of components comprising: a main body; a first connection portion at a first distal end of the main body; and a second connection portion at a second distal end of the main body opposite the first distal end thereof, wherein both of the first connection portion and the second connection portion of the detachable trigger guard are elastically deformable to allow the detachable trigger guard to be removably coupled to a receiver portion of the firearm below a trigger of the firearm by: the first connection portion being coupled to either or both of a first pair of through holes on the receiver portion of the firearm, and the second connection portion being coupled to either or both of a second pair of through holes on the receiver portion of the firearm, wherein the first connection portion comprises a first protrusion configured to engage with and be partially received in a respective one of the first pair of through holes when the detachable trigger guard is coupled to the receiver portion of the firearm, wherein the first protrusion is on a sidewall separated from the main body by a first gap which, when the detachable trigger guard is coupled to the receiver portion of the firearm, extends in a direction along a longitudinal axis of the firearm, wherein the second connection portion comprises two second protrusions each configured to engage with and be partially received in a respective one of the second pair of through holes when the detachable trigger guard is coupled to the receiver portion of the firearm, with one of the two second protrusions on a first sidewall of the second connection portion and another of the two second protrusions on a second sidewall of the second connection portion opposite the first sidewall when the detachable trigger guard is coupled to the receiver portion of the firearm, and wherein each of the first sidewall and the second sidewall of the second connection portion is separated from the main body by a respective second gap of two second gaps which, when the detachable trigger guard is coupled to the receiver portion of the firearm, extends in a direction along the longitudinal axis of the firearm. 2. The device of claim 1 , wherein the detachable trigger guard is made of polymer. 3. The device of claim 1 , wherein the detachable trigger guard is made of metal.
