Definitions
- the invention is related to a magwell which provides for a more practical placement of the magazine into the magazine bed and speeding of the magazine changing procedures.
- the main purpose of the magwell is to place the magazine into the magazine bearing in the body swiftly in any position and provide rapid magazine change.
- the magwell provides for the magazine to be guided and seated while creating a surface area for the hand to grip the bottom. Thereby, it contributes to gun control as it helps changing the magazine rapidly.
- magwells are guides that can be used with the purpose of the gun user to load the magazine into the gun easily and effortlessly. These guides have more importance especially for the competition shooters. For the competition shooters to reach their desired speed, they need to insert the new magazine into the gun rapidly without moving their gaze from the target. Since they enable rapid and consistent loading, magwells can create important advantages in the total score of the shooter in competitions.
- Magwells can enable rapid loading by enlarging the opening of the magazine entrance on the grip by channelizing the magazines that were driven to the well towards the opening in an entry form due to their funnel-shaped structures and wall formations at different angles.
- the enlarged portion formed at the bottom of the grip will give the user an important advantage in terms of gripping the gun and will be a reason for preference by the competition shooters.
- Patent application number US202002547 describes a magwell which can be used for semiautomatic weapons. It is understood that the embodiment as the subject of the invention is an apparatus for elongating the magwell of a firearm. In order to connect the mentioned apparatus to the gun, it has an expandable fixing mechanism that can selectively expand against the internal clearance adjacent to the magazine housing.
- Patent application number US 10921076 describes a magwell adapter aiming to be used for firearms.
- the mentioned adapter can be slidably connected to the bottom of the grip portion of the firearm.
- the adapter may comprise an opening for receiving a protrusion and holding the winding spring in place within the grip portion.
- the adapter may comprise at least one pin-receiving opening on the rear end and this opening can be configures to receive a main spring housing pin to connect the main spring housing to the adapter.
- magwells can be connected to the grip by means of various connection mechanisms.
- the pressure and vibration the gun creates as it is shot is considered, there can be loosening and displacement of the magwell connection components.
- the deformations created at the moment of shooting can influence the shooting performance of the user.
- magwells render gun use swift and practical, performing the connection of the magwells to be used to the gun practically can be demanded by the users.
- complex connection mechanisms can be stably connected to the magazine and eliminate or reduce the problems of loosening and displacement.
- these mechanisms will make practical and rapid connection to the gun more difficult, they may create a disadvantage for the users.
- the purpose of the invention is to provide a magwell in which the loosening and displacement problems are reduced by both making the mounting-demounting of the magazine more rapid and practical, and stabilizing the grip connection.
- magwell as the subject of the invention Since more rapid and practical mounting of the magwell as the subject of the invention is enabled, it can be mounted to the grip easily and effortlessly.
- magwell is stably connected to the grip, possible loosening and displacement problems can be minimized.
- magwell As the subject of the invention it is provided for the magazine to be guided and seated in place, while creating a surface area for the hand to grip the bottom. Thereby, it will be able to contribute to gun control as it helps changing the magazine rapidly.
- Figure 1 Sectional isometric view of the magwell.
- Figure 4. Rear view of the magwell.
- Figure 5 Top view of the magwell.
- the invention is related to a magwell (7) which provides for a more practical placement of the magazine into the magazine bearing and speeding of the magazine changing procedure.
- the magwell body (1) of the mentioned magwell (7) aims to be detachably attached to the grip secondary element (5) which defines the grip and which can be detachably attached to the grip primary element (4) that is part of the firearm grip.
- the mentioned magwell body (1) comprises walls which have been angled to direct the magazine during positioning, and a wider opening, with the purpose of being more easily positioned within the magazine bed.
- the magwell body (1) comprises at least one magwell knuckle (2) which aims to be interlocked with the knuckle placement clearance (9) of the grip secondary element (5) with the axial movement around the magwell connection element (3), associated with the magwell body (1) such that it can axially move around at least one magwell connection element (3).
- magwell knuckle (2) The interlocking detail of the magwell knuckle (2) is placed within the grip placement clearance (11) of the grip secondary element (5) with the axial movement of the magwell knuckle (2) in a direction centered to the magwell connection element (3). With this interlocking, the magwell (7) can be connected to the gun.
- magwell connection element (3) has a pin form and aims to be placed within the magazine pin hole (8) formed on the magwell body (1).
- a detail of the magwell knuckle (2) aims to be placed within the knuckle placement clearance (9) formed on the magwell body (1). Following this positioning, the pin passes through the magazine pin hole (8) and the hole formed on the detail of the magwell knuckle (2), and the connection is completed. Thanks to the structure of this connection, the magwell knuckle (2) can move around the pin axially.
- This embodiment will enable the magwell body (1) to be mounted and demounted to the gun by changing the axial positions of the user.
- magwell knuckle (2) is an intermediate piece which provides for the magwell knuckle (7) to be fixed to the grip. It provides visual and ergonomic improvement.
- magwell connection element (3) is the piece which helps combining the magazine body
- the magwell body (1) is a piece which aims to be connected to the magazine clearance created at the end of the pistol grip gripping area formed by the grip primary element (4) and the grip secondary element (5) and as a result, increases its efficiency.
- the grip connection element (6) is used.
- the grip connection element (6) is created in the pin form. This pin fixes the connection by passing through the knuckle hole (12) formed on the magwell knuckle
- connection element (6) created in pin form is passed from the mentioned holes (10,12)
- the connection can be completed by additionally connecting the same to the holes formed on the gun grip.
