Abstract

A pillow for holding a firearm comprising a pillow assembly and a firearm compartment positioned inside the pillow assembly. The firearm compartment is configured to define a grip portion, a trigger guard portion, and a barrel portion. The firearm compartment has an opening with a closure mechanism for selectively closing the opening of the firearm compartment. A portion of the opening is free of the closure mechanism so as to define a quick access portion configured to allow a user to rapidly open the closure mechanism.

1. A pillow for holding a firearm, comprising:

a pillow assembly having at least a top panel and a bottom panel lined with one another in a way to define at least one edge; and

a firearm compartment positioned inside the pillow assembly, the firearm compartment comprising a top panel and a bottom joined with one another in way to define;

an opening positioned adjacent to the edge;

a hand portion adjacent to the opening and configured to receive a user'"'"'s hand therein;

a grip portion adjacent to the hand portion, the grip portion having a first width and a first depth and being configured to receive a firearm grip therein when a firearm is inserted into the firearm compartment and to allow access to the firearm grip by a user'"'"'s hand;

a trigger guard portion adjacent to the grip portion, the trigger guard portion having a second width less than the first width and a second depth less than the first depth and being configured to receive a trigger guard of the firearm when the firearm is inserted into the firearm compartment; and

a barrel portion adjacent to the trigger guard portion, the barrel portion having a third depth and a third width less than the second width, and being configured to receive at least a portion of a barrel of the firearm when the firearm is inserted in the firearm compartment.

2. The pillow of claim 1, wherein the firearm compartment further comprises a closure mechanism for selectively closing the opening of the firearm compartment and wherein a portion of the opening is free of the closure mechanism so as to define a quick access portion configured to allow a user to rapidly open the closure mechanism.

3. The pillow of claim 2, further comprising a tag extending from the edge adjacent to and aligned with the quick assess portion.

4. The pillow of claim 1, further comprising at least one anchoring strap having one end connected to the pillow assembly and one end connected to the firearm compartment in a way to retain the firearm compartment securely inside the pillow assembly when the firearm is inserted into the firearm compartment and removed from the firearm compartment.

5. The pillow of claim 4, wherein the firearm compartment further comprises a closure mechanism for selectively closing the opening of the firearm compartment and wherein a portion of the opening is free of the closure mechanism so as to define a quick access portion configured to allow a user to rapidly open the closure mechanism.

6. The pillow of claim 5, further comprising a tag extending from the edge adjacent to and aligned with the quick assess portion.

7. A pillow for holding a firearm, comprising:

a pillow assembly having at least a top panel and a bottom panel lined with one another in a way to define at least one edge and a cushioning material disposed between the top panel and the bottom panel; and

a firearm compartment positioned inside the pillow assembly, the firearm compartment comprising a top panel and a bottom joined with one another in way to define;

an opening positioned adjacent to the edge;

a hand portion adjacent to the opening and configured to receive a user'"'"'s hand therein;

a grip portion adjacent to the hand portion, the grip portion having a first width and a first depth and being configured to receive a firearm grip therein when a firearm is inserted into the firearm compartment and to allow access to the firearm grip by a user'"'"'s hand;

a trigger guard portion adjacent to the grip portion, the trigger guard portion having a second width less than the first width and a second depth less than the first depth and being configured to receive a trigger guard of the firearm when the firearm is inserted into the firearm compartment; and

a barrel portion adjacent to the trigger guard portion, the barrel portion having a third depth and a third width less than the second width, and being configured to receive at least a portion of a barrel of the firearm when the firearm is inserted in the firearm compartment.

8. The pillow of claim 7, wherein the firearm compartment further comprises a closure mechanism for selectively closing the opening of the firearm compartment and wherein a portion of the opening is free of the closure mechanism so as to define a quick access portion configured to allow a user to rapidly open the closure mechanism.

9. The pillow of claim 8, further comprising a tag extending from the edge adjacent to and aligned with the quick assess portion.

10. The pillow of claim 7, further comprising at least one anchoring strap having one end connected to the pillow assembly and one end connected to the firearm compartment in a way to retain the firearm compartment securely inside the pillow assembly when the firearm is inserted into the firearm compartment and removed from the firearm compartment.

11. The pillow of claim 10, wherein the firearm compartment further comprises a closure mechanism for selectively closing the opening of the firearm compartment and wherein a portion of the opening is free of the closure mechanism so as to define a quick access portion configured to allow a user to rapidly open the closure mechanism.

12. The pillow of claim 11, further comprising a tag extending from the edge adjacent to and aligned with the quick assess portion.
