  • the flared portions 39 , 41 , 45 , 47 cooperate to receive and help guide the shotgun toward a retaining position wherein the shotgun is held between the arms 17 , 19 .
  • the arms further have respective inner surfaces 55 , 57 ( FIG. 3 ) for engaging the shotgun S when the shotgun is placed in the space 51 between the arms, and typically are spaced apart a distance D 1 ( FIG. 9 ) so that the arms define a partially enclosed, substantially U or C-shaped receiving or holding recess or space 51 for receiving the shotgun S.
  • the arms 17 , 19 each have a curved portion 61 , 63 with a respective concave inner surface 65 , 67 ( FIG.
  • the concave inner surfaces 65 , 67 of the arms 17 , 19 cooperate to receive the barrel BL of the shotgun S so that holding device 1 contacts the outer surface of the firearm barrel BL at two circumferential contact surfaces along a portion of the length of the barrel.
  • arm 17 also can have a series of mounting holes (not shown) each having a respective mounting boss 72 , 74 , 76 ( FIG. 3 ), while arm 19 similarly can have mounting holes 77 , 79 , 81 each with a respective mounting boss 78 , 80 , 82 , with the mounting holes 77 , 79 , 81 formed in the arm 19 generally are axially aligned with a respective mounting hole in the arm 17 .
  • a mounting bracket 85 is attached to the holding device 1 by threaded fasteners (e.g., bolts, not shown) passing through the mounting holes in the arm 17 .
  • These holes can be used to mount the device 1 to a variety of materials and objects to facilitate shooter use whether carried by or secured to a belt or clothing of the shooter himself or mounted to an object such as a vehicle or aircraft.
  • the mounting bracket 85 abuts the outer surface of the mounting bosses 72 , 74 , 76 so that the bracket generally is spaced from the arm 17 .
  • the mounting bracket 85 can be secured to the other arm 19 of the holding device 1 by threaded fasteners passing through the mounting holes 77 , 79 , 81 without departing from the scope of this invention.
  • the mounting bracket 85 can attach the holding device 1 to the mounting pad 2 used to secure the holding device to the belt ( FIG. 1 ) or other garment worn by the shooter.
  • the mounting bracket 85 shown in the illustrated embodiment can include a retention or mounting bracket such as is commercially available from Blade-Tech Industries of Lakewood, Wash. It also will be understood that the mounting bracket 85 can be used to mount the holding device 1 to other articles or garments worn by the shooter (e.g., body armor, uniform, etc.) without departing from the scope of this invention.
  • devices other than the mounting bracket 85 may be attached to holding device 1 for purposes of mounting the holding device to a support platform or the mounting bracket may be omitted and the holding device may be directly attached to a garment or article worn by the shooter without departing from the scope of this invention.
  • the C-shaped bend 23 of the holding device 1 connects the two arms 17 , 19 and allows the arms to resiliently flex relative to one another to provide a clamping force of the holding device when the shotgun is placed between the arms.
  • the bend 23 generally is about a 180-degree or similar angle bend having generally opposed side walls 91 , 93 connected to the respective curved portions 61 , 63 of each arm 17 , 19 .
  • the holding device 1 also generally has two adjustment screws 97 , 99 or other, similar fasteners received in one of the side walls 93 for adjusting the clamping force of the holding device. As shown in FIG.
  • each of the adjustment screws 97 , 99 are received in respective sleeves 103 , 105 positioned between the inner surface of the opposed side walls 91 , 93 of the bend 23 , and typically are threadably connected to a nut (not shown) housed in the side wall 91 of the bend 23 .
  • a nut not shown housed in the side wall 91 of the bend 23 .
  • the sidewalls 91 , 93 of the bend 23 generally are moved farther apart, thus increasing the distance D 1 between the arms 17 , 19 and decreasing the clamping force of the holding device 1 .
  • the distance D 1 is approximately 1.5 inches with each of the arms being sufficiently resilient to flex outwardly so that distance between the arms can be extended by upwards of approximately 3.5 inches or more. It is understood that the distance D 1 may be more or less than the dimensions stated herein without departing from the scope of this invention.
  • the holding device 1 may be attached to the shooter prior to loading the shotgun S between the arms 17 , 19 by attaching the mounting bracket 85 to pad 2 or other support platform that is attached to the shooter.
  • the shotgun S is held in the holding device 1 by positioning the shotgun adjacent the space 51 between the arms 17 , 19 such that the arms are aligned for receiving the section of the barrel BL between the receiver R and the forestock F of the shotgun.
  • the shotgun S is moved toward the closed end 7 of the holding device 1 such that the arms 17 , 19 engage the shotgun.
  • the arms 17 , 19 will resiliently flex outward allowing sufficient clearance for the shotgun to advance forward in the holding device until the magazine tube and barrel BL are received in the corresponding curved portions 61 , 63 of the arms 17 , 19 .
  • the arms will resiliently flex inward and/or snap back into place to engage and secure the shotgun S in the holding device 1 .
  • the arms 17 , 19 cooperate to provide a clamping force acting on opposed circumferential contact surfaces along a length of the shotgun S to substantially restrain the shotgun in the holding device 1 . Adjustments to the clamping force of the holding device 1 may be made by tightening the threaded fasteners 97 , 99 to increase the clamping force or by loosening the threaded fasteners to decrease the clamping force of the holding device.
  • the shotgun S may be quickly and easily removed from the holding device by applying a pulling force to the shotgun S sufficient to overcome the clamping force applied by the arms 17 , 19 and thereby disengage the shotgun from the arms.
  • the withdrawal of the shotgun S from the holding device 1 does not require the removal of any attachments or the release of any flaps, fasteners, or other attachment means. Rather, the holding device 1 of the present invention allows quick release of the shotgun by simply grasping the shotgun S and pulling it in the lateral direction (indicated by arrow A 1 of FIG. 4 ) generally away from the closed end 7 of the holding device to overcome the clamping force of the arms 17 , 19 .
  • the holding device 1 of the present invention provides a simple and easy to use system for releasably securing a shotgun S or other firearm to the shooter in a secure position to enable the shotgun to be carried and quickly and easily accessed during a tactical mission.
  • the holding device 1 of the present invention has been illustrated in use for holding a firearm such as a tactical shotgun S such as is typically used in military or law enforcement tactical operations, the holding device 1 of the present invention also could be used with other firearms (e.g., non-tactical shotguns, rifles, handguns, etc.) in other applications (e.g., hunting, target shooting, etc.) without departing from the scope of this invention.
  • the holding device 1 of the present invention holds the firearm in a secure position that is easily accessible by a shooter during a tactical mission, and allows quick release of the firearm from its secured position without the removal of straps or other fasteners needed to restrain the firearm in the holding device.
  • the holding device 1 of the present invention also can be easily adapted to attach to various support platforms for positioning by a shooter at the shooter's preferred location during a tactical mission.
