Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 83 words
An internally reinforced pistol grip comprising a pair of similar molded rubber body sections interengaged in a central plane of the grip and adapted to receive between them a shank terminal of the pistol, said sections containing apertured metallic internally concave reinforcement stampings forming opposed recesses, the edges of the stampings corresponding with the shapes of said sections and being fully embedded in the sections, and means interconnecting the sections through openings in the stampings alinable with an opening in said shank terminal.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 83 words
An internally reinforced pistol grip comprising a pair of similar molded rubber body sections interengaged in a central plane of the grip and adapted to receive between them a shank terminal of the pistol, said sections containing apertured metallic internally concave reinforcement stampings forming opposed recesses, the edges of the stampings corresponding with the shapes of said sections and being fully embedded in the sections, and means interconnecting the sections through openings in the stampings alinable with an opening in said shank terminal.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 36 words
A grip according to claim 1 in which said stampings are formed to have progressively increasing concave depth toward the butt end of the grip and from flattened terminals within the opposite end of the grip.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 36 words
A grip according to claim 2, in which said interconnecting means is a screw threadable into a nut embedded in one of said sections within a recess in the outer surfaces of one of the stampings.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 21 words
A grip according to claim 2, in which said stampings have distributed rubber bonding apertures including openings along said flattened terminals.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 26 words
A grip according to claim 4, in which the stampings also have bonding openings along and adjacent closed ends at the butt end of the grip.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 32 words
A grip according to claim 5, in which the stampings each contains above and below said recesses a pair of internally necked openings for reception of supporting pins in molding the sections.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 19 words
A grip according to claim 1, in which the sections are molded of rubber having about 35-55 shore hardness.
