20090064556SLIDE RETRACTION LEVERS FOR USE WITH FIREARMS - Slide retraction levers for use with firearms are described. In one example implementation, the slide retraction lever for use with a firearm includes a first handle and a second handle. The first and second handles are used to retract the slide retraction lever. Additionally, the first and second handles are positioned on opposite sides of the slide retraction lever. The slide retraction lever further includes a locking device that is associated with the first handle. Operating the first handle releases an engagement with the firearm. Additionally, the locking device is associated with the second handle. Operating the second handle releases the engagement with the firearm independent of the operation of the first handle.03-12-2009

20130133235Firearm Lubrication System - A firearm system includes lubrication notches are incised into portions of the frame and slide along the region of interaction between these two components. The notches act as reservoirs of lubrication and upon each cycling movement of the slide (firing of the weapon) one or more of the notches is placed opposite a corresponding portion of the slide or frame. The notches themselves are never exposed to the environment and thus retain the lubricant, unlike topically applied material. As a result, the frame and slide are lubricated during each cycle of the slide.05-30-2013
