Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
149 words
A gunsling adapted to be connected to loop pivot connections on a gunstock comprising; a strip of woven, synthetic material; a loop slide member; one extremity of the strip of woven material being looped through said loop slide member and secured thereon, a buckle member with a keeper thereon; said strip of material being positioned in order through one of said loop pivot connections, the buckle member, the other of the loop pivot connections, the loop slide member and secured to the buckle member; said keeper being pivotally mounted near one end of the buckle member and positioned around that portion of the strip member extending from the other of the loop pivot connections to the loop slide member without passing through the buckle member; and said keeper when pivoted over the end of the buckle member restricting movement of the strip of material relative to the pivot connections.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
149 words
A gunsling adapted to be connected to loop pivot connections on a gunstock comprising; a strip of woven, synthetic material; a loop slide member; one extremity of the strip of woven material being looped through said loop slide member and secured thereon, a buckle member with a keeper thereon; said strip of material being positioned in order through one of said loop pivot connections, the buckle member, the other of the loop pivot connections, the loop slide member and secured to the buckle member; said keeper being pivotally mounted near one end of the buckle member and positioned around that portion of the strip member extending from the other of the loop pivot connections to the loop slide member without passing through the buckle member; and said keeper when pivoted over the end of the buckle member restricting movement of the strip of material relative to the pivot connections.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
43 words
The gunsling of claim 1 in which the opposite extremity of the strip of material is secured in the buckle member by folding the extremity over on itself and confining this extremity of the strip in a folded position in the buckle member.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
56 words
The gunsling of claim 1 in which the buckle member is a tubular structure generally rectangular in cross section and having a width dimension slightly wider than the width dimension of the strip of woven, synthetic material and a depth dimension at one extremity greater than three times the depth of the strip of woven material.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
38 words
The gunsling of claim 3 in which the buckle member is tapered in the depth dimension from the end in which the folded-over portion of the extremity of the strip of material is positioned toward the opposite extremity.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
49 words
The gunsling of claim 1 in which the keeper is a U-shaped metallic member pivotally mounted near one extremity of the buckle member and adapted to fit around the extremity of the buckle member to frictionally bind that portion of the strip of material which extends through the same.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
24 words
The gunsling of claim 5 in which the keeper is pivoted at the extremity of the buckle member remote from the loop slide member.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
50 words
The gunsling of claim 6 in which the loop slide is generally rectangular in outline and has an open area therein which is at least the width of the strip of woven material and in depth dimension of at least twice the depth dimension of the strip of woven material.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
22 words
The gunsling of claim 7 in which the other extremity of the strip of woven, synthetic material includes a metallic tip thereon.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
36 words
The gunsling of claim 8 and including screw means threaded through the body of the buckle member and bearing against the other extremity of the strip of material to secure the strip in the buckle member.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
