Hunting Stand and Firearm Rest Therefor

摘要

Firearm rests for hunting stands are provided. A firearm rest includes a first arm and a second arm. The second arm is spaced apart from the first arm along a lateral direction. The first arm and second arm each include a body extending between a first end and a second end, the body including a fixed portion and a rotational portion that is rotational between an extended position and a retracted position. The firearm rest further includes a cross-beam extending generally along the lateral direction between the first arm and the second arm. The cross-beam is coupled to the first arm at the first end and coupled to the second arm at the first end. The cross-beam has a position along a vertical direction in the extended position that is above a position of the cross-beam along the vertical direction in the retracted position.

主权项

1. A firearm rest for a hunting stand, the hunting stand comprising a rail, the firearm rest comprising:
a first arm comprising a body extending between a first end and a second end, the first arm connectable at the second end to the rail, the body comprising a fixed portion and a rotational portion that is rotational between an extended position and a retracted position wherein the first arm further comprises a first pivot assembly, the first pivot assembly comprising a mechanical fastener extending through the fixed portion and the rotational portion of the first arm and defining a pivot point for the rotational portion of the first arm, wherein the first pivot assembly further comprises a bracket defining a channel, the channel housing portions of the fixed portion and the rotational portion of the first arm, the bracket configured to prevent rotation of the rotational portion of the first arm past approximately 190 degrees relative to the fixed portion of the first arm; a second arm spaced apart from the first arm along a lateral direction, the second arm comprising a body extending between. a first end and a second end, the second arm connectable at the second end to the rail, the body comprising a fixed portion and a rotational portion that is rotational between an extended position and a retracted position, wherein the second arm further comprises a second pivot assembly, the second pivot assembly comprising a mechanical fastener extending through the fixed portion and the rotational portion of the second arm and defining a pivot point for the rotational portion of the second arm, wherein the second pivot assembly further comprises a bracket defining a channel, the channel housing portions of the fixed portion and the rotational portion of the second arm, the bracket configured to prevent rotation of the rotational portion of the second arm past approximately 190 degrees relative to the fixed portion of the second arm; and a cross-beam extending generally along the lateral direction between the first arm and the second arm, the cross-beam coupled to the first arm at the first end of the first arm and coupled to the second arm at the first end of the second arm, wherein the cross-beam has a position along a vertical direction in the extended position that is above a position of the cross-beam along the vertical direction in the retracted position.
