Adjustable rifle stock
First Claim
1. A mounting facility for connecting to an elongated firearm rail having a rail profile with a neck portion having a neck width and connected to a firearm, and a head portion connected to the neck portion and having a head width greater than the neck width, the head portion having a planar mounting surface away from the neck portion, the mounting facility comprising:
- a body defining an elongated channel adapted to receive the elongated firearm rail;
the elongated channel having an internal width adapted to receive the head portion of the elongated firearm rail;
the elongated channel having opposed elongated hook surfaces defining a hook width adapted to receive the neck portion of the elongated firearm rail;
the hook width being less than the head width of the head portion such that the hook surfaces bear on the elongated firearm rail to resist separation of the body from the elongated firearm rail in a direction perpendicular to the planar mounting surface;
the elongated channel having an elongated floor surface parallel to and opposing the planar mounting surface of the elongated firearm rail;
a foot element connected to the body and having a contact surface facing the planar mounting surface of the elongated firearm rail;
the foot element defining a threaded bore;
a threaded securement facility threadably received in the threaded bore and having an end face adapted to contact the body, and operable to move the foot element with respect to the body and to compress the elongated firearm rail between the contact surface of the foot element and the hook surfaces.

13. An accessory mount for connecting to a firearm rail, comprising:
-
a body defining a channel open in a selected direction and having a screw engagement surface facing the selected direction; a foot element in the channel and having a contact surface facing the selected direction; the foot element defining a threaded bore aligned with a bore axis perpendicular to the contact surface; a set screw received in the threaded bore and having a first end facing the selected direction and having a tool-engagement facility; and the set screw having an opposed second end adapted for contacting the screw engagement surface of the body, such that adjustment of the set screw secures the body to the firearm rail by way of pressure applied by the foot element and resisted by selected portions of the body contacting the firearm rail. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
