A receiver system comprises upper and lower receiver bodies, a lower receiver body, a bolt carrier, and an action-control lever. The upper receiver body is a semi-automatic firearm upper receiver body. The lower receiver body includes a stock mounting flange having a stock receptacle that is matingly engageable with a receiver engaging portion of a stock. The bolt carrier is slidably disposed within a bolt carrier receiving bore of the upper receiver body. The action-control lever has a hand loop and a first attachment arm having a proximate end portion thereof attached to the hand loop. The first attachment arm is pivotably attached at a distal end thereof to the lower receiver body for being pivoted between a battery-ready position and a cartridge-ejecting position relative to the lower receiver body. The action-control lever is attached to the bolt carrier through an articulating coupling assembly.

A firearm as disclosures herein comprises a main receiver body, a barrel, a breech bolt structure, a buffer assembly, a trigger group assembly, a bolt catch and at least one of an auto-sear, a magazine adapter and a breech bolt anti-rotation structure. The main receiver body is preferably of a monolithic construction whereby the handguard and breech bolt carrying bore can be manufactured from a single piece of material. The auto-sear is tripped by engagement with a buffer of the buffer assembly. The magazine adapter has an exterior surface structure engaged with a mating interior surface structure of a magazine well space of the main receiver body. A distal end portion of the breech bolt anti-rotation structure is engageable by the buffer for limiting forward travel of the buffer when the barrel is detached from the main receiver body.
Bolt carrier movement mechanism providing primary extraction force multiplication, firearms comprising same, kits for constructing firearms comprising same, and bolt carrier groups for enabling same
Disclosed herein are bolt carrier movement mechanisms that offer a higher ratio of bolt carrier applied force to user applied bolt action operating force. Such bolt carrier movement mechanism may comprise a bolt carrier, an impingement body, a primary extraction leverage member, and an action control structure coupler. The impingement body has at least one impingement surface. The primary extraction leverage member has a coupler mounting portion, an impingement member portion, and a bolt carrier mounting portion. The primary extraction leverage member is engaged at the bolt carrier mounting portion of the bolt carrier. The impingement member portion of the primary extraction leverage member is adjacent to the at least one impingement surface of the impingement body and includes at least one impingement member. The action control structure coupler is pivotably engaged with the coupler mounting portion of the primary extraction leverage member.
F41A 15/14 - Cartridge extractors, i.e. devices for pulling cartridges or cartridge cases at least partially out of the cartridge chamberCartridge ejectors, i.e. devices for throwing the extracted cartridges or cartridge cases free of the gun for bolt-action guns the ejector being mounted on, or within, the bolt
F41A 3/26 - Rigid bolt locks, i.e. having locking elements rigidly mounted on the bolt or bolt handle and on the barrel or breech-housing respectively the locking elements effecting a rotary movement about the barrel axis, e.g. rotating cylinder bolt locks semi-automatically or automatically operated, e.g. having a slidable bolt-carrier and a rotatable bolt
