Buttstock assembly
First Claim
1. A firearm, comprising:
- a receiver;
a barrel;
a fire control; and
an adjustable buttstock assembly mounted to the receiver, comprising;
a skeletonized frame comprising a substantially unitary body extending about and defining an open area,a comb assembly mounted to the frame by a first adjustment apparatus and including a cheek piece,a butt plate assembly mounted to the frame by a second adjustment apparatus and including a recoil pad;
wherein at least one of the first and second adjustment apparatus includes a lock mechanism for securing the cheek piece and/or the recoil pad in a desired position, the lock mechanism selectively causing at least a portion of the frame to frictionally engage the at least one of the first and second adjustment apparatus.

Abstract
A modular firearm comprising an adjustable modular buttstock assembly. The buttstock assembly can include a frame with a central opening. A comb assembly having a cheek piece and a butt plate assembly having a recoil pad each can be mounted to the frame by an adjustment apparatus. Each adjustment apparatus can include of a guide post and/or a threaded adjustment post each received in respective bores in the frame to adjust the positions of the cheek piece and recoil pad. The adjustment apparatus also can include a locking or engagement feature that can selectively increase the friction between the frame and the guide post and/or adjustment post, to help prevent the translation of the guide post and/or adjustment post in the bore in the frame to fix the comb assembly and butt plate assembly in desired positions with respect to the frame.

11. An adjustable buttstock assembly for a firearm, comprising:
-
a skeletonized frame defining an open space therewithin; a comb assembly mounted along the frame; a recoil pad assembly mounted along the frame; and at least one adjustment apparatus for adjustment of a position of at least one of the comb assembly and the recoil pad assembly with respect to the frame, the at least one adjustment apparatus including a lock mechanism for locking the at least one adjustment apparatus against adjustment; wherein the at least one adjustment apparatus further comprises a post received within and moveable through a bore formed in the frame, and the lock mechanism is operable to urge the frame into frictional engagement with the post to lock the post in a desired position with respect to the frame. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)
