Combined handgrip and trigger guard for a firearm

摘要

A combined handgrip and trigger guard for a firearm has a handgrip section and a trigger guard section. Preferably, the handgrip section and trigger guard section are provided as an integral one-piece polymer member. The trigger guard section extends from the handgrip section in a general cantilevered configuration. A free end of the cantilever trigger guard section has an integral pin section that is located in a hole of a frame of the firearm. Locating the free end of the trigger guard section against the frame with the pin section in the hole of the frame is the only direct connection of the trigger guard section to the frame and does not use additional fasteners directly between the trigger guard section and the frame.
