Abstract

A firearm grip with a rest is provided, which at least has a grip body with a hollow portion, a shell encasing and combined with an outside of the grip body and exposing a bottom of the grip body, and a rest received in the grip body and capable of being projected from the bottom of the grip body to position and support the firearm grip against a setting surface. The grip body and the rest can be coupled to each other by an elastic member that allows the rest to be resiliently retracted back into the grip body. Alternatively, the rest can be pivotally coupled to the grip body and rotatably retracted into the grip body. The above firearm grip eliminates the shortcomings of the prior art.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A firearm grip with a rest, comprising:
 a grip body having a hollow portion;   a shell encasing and combined with an outside of the grip body and exposing a bottom of the grip body;   a rest received in the grip body and capable of being projected from the bottom of the grip body to position and support the firearm grip against a setting surface; and   an elastic member for coupling the grip body to the rest and for resiliently retracting the rest back into the grip body.   
   
   
       2 . The firearm grip with a rest of  claim 1 , wherein the rest received in the grip body comprises a bearing mount and at least two legs pivotally coupled to the bearing mount via a pivotal pin, and wherein the bearing mount is coupled to an end of the elastic member and the two legs are able to cojoin to form a column. 
   
   
       3 . The firearm grip with a rest of  claim 2 , wherein the hollow portion of the grip body is adapted for receiving the column cojoined from the two legs. 
   
   
       4 . The firearm grip with a rest of  claim 2 , wherein an end of each of the two legs is formed with an operating flange. 
   
   
       5 . The firearm grip with a rest of  claim 2 , wherein a torsion spring is provided at coupling points of the two legs so as to resiliently keep the two legs apart at the time the rest has been projected from the bottom of the grip body. 
   
   
       6 . The firearm grip with a rest of  claim 2 , wherein the bottom of the grip body is further provided with a positioning portion for positioning the column. 
   
   
       7 . The firearm grip with a rest of  claim 6 , wherein the positioning portion comprises a slot. 
   
   
       8 . The firearm grip with a rest of  claim 1 , wherein the rest received in the grip body is a column with a combining portion on a top thereof, such that the combining portion is coupled to an end of the elastic member via a pivotal pin. 
   
   
       9 . The firearm grip with a rest of  claim 8 , wherein the hollow portion of the grip body is adapted for receiving the column. 
   
   
       10 . The firearm grip with a rest of  claim 8 , wherein the bottom of the grip body is further provided with a protrusion. 
   
   
       11 . The firearm grip with a rest of  claim 8 , wherein the bottom of the grip body is further provided with a protruding step, such that the protruding step is blocked by the bottom of the grip body when the column is received in the grip body. 
   
   
       12 . The firearm grip with a rest of  claim 8 , wherein the bottom of the grip body is further provided with a positioning portion for positioning the column. 
   
   
       13 . The firearm grip with a rest of  claim 12 , wherein the positioning portion comprises a slot. 
   
   
       14 . The firearm grip with a rest of  claim 1 , wherein the rest received in the grip body is a column with a top thereof being coupled to an end of the elastic member. 
   
   
       15 . The firearm grip with a rest of  claim 14 , wherein a dent is formed on the top of the column and is coupled to the end of the elastic member via a rod. 
   
   
       16 . The firearm grip with a rest of  claim 14 , wherein an elastic operating member is provided on the bottom of the grip body, the elastic operating member comprising a first engaging part extended into the grip body, and a second engaging part is provided on a side of the column and corresponding to the first engaging part, so as to allow the column to be received in or projected from the grip body according to an engagement status between the first engaging part and the second engaging part, wherein the engagement between the first engaging part and the second engaging part is capable of being released by operating the elastic operating element, so as to allow the column to be resiliently retracted back into the grip body by the elastic member. 
   
   
       17 . The firearm grip with a rest of  claim 14 , wherein the bottom of the grip body is further provided with a protrusion. 
   
   
       18 . The firearm grip with a rest of  claim 14 , wherein the bottom of the grip body is further provided with a protruding step, such that the protruding step is blocked by the bottom of the grip body when the column is received in the grip body. 
   
   
       19 . A firearm grip with a rest, comprising:
 a grip body having a hollow portion, wherein an opening is formed on a side of the grip body and vertically extended to a bottom of the grip body;   a shell encasing and combined with an outside of the grip body and exposing the opening and the bottom of the grip body; and   a rest pivotally coupled to the grip body and for being projected from the bottom of the grip body to position and support the firearm grip against a setting surface, wherein the rest is capable of being rotatably retracted into the grip body via the opening.   
   
   
       20 . The firearm grip with a rest of  claim 19 , wherein the rest retracted into the grip body comprises a bearing mount and at least two legs pivotally coupled to the bearing mount via a pivotal pin, and wherein the two legs are able to cojoin to form a column. 
   
   
       21 . The firearm grip with a rest of  claim 19 , wherein a torsion spring is provided at coupling points of the two legs so as to resiliently keep the two legs apart at the time the rest has been projected from the bottom of the grip body.
