Abstract:
An improved bolt, bolt carrier and barrel assembly for rifles is described. This invention provides bolt mechanism that has heavier lugs on each side of the extractor to distribute the forces more equally and reliably and thereby reducing firearm failure rate. Moreover, this invention provides a bolt system that is easily adaptable to different ammunition feed devices as well as different ammunition cartridges. This invention further includes a barrel having a barrel extension designed to mate to the symmetrical bolt head lugs of this invention.

Abstract:
A multi-caliber ambidextrously controlled firearm that includes an adjustable ejection system to facilitate the ejection of spent cartridge casings from a firearm. The adjustable ejection system includes an ejection port defined by an aperture in the firearm and a deflector. The deflector is attached to the firearm to adjust the size of the ejection port and may be attached at one of at least two attachment positions of the firearm. The adjustable ejector system includes an ejector selectively attached to the firearm at one of at least two ejector attachment positions. The improved firearm also includes an ambidextrous magazine catch system for selectively retaining a magazine within a firearm. The magazine catch system includes a first button opposite a second button such that either button may be actuated by a user to release the magazine retained with the firearm.

Abstract:
A firearm including a barrel having a chamber and an integrally formed upper receiver having a passageway, an accessory rail extending the complete length of the upper receiver, and a guidance feature extending along the passageway. The firearm also includes an operating rod having an anti-bounce mechanism, a bolt that is rotated counter-clockwise to lock against the chamber, a bolt carrier having a safety extension disposed below the bolt that prevents a hammer from striking a firing pin until the bolt is locked against the chamber, a lower receiver, a recoil spring assembly, and a fire control group. The bolt includes a polymer spring that biases a sliding extractor against the base of a cartridge. The sliding extractor is disposed at an angle ranging from thirty degrees to fifteen degrees on the bolt face to provide a low ejection angle from the firearm.

Abstract:
An improved firearm having a barrel coupled to an upper receiver where the receiver includes a passageway extending generally parallel to the longitudinal axis, and a guidance feature extending along the passageway generally parallel to the longitudinal axis. The firearm also includes a lower receiver coupled to the upper receiver and a recoil spring assembly comprising a mating attachment structure and a disassembly button disposed on a lateral side of the upper receiver. The mating attachment structure is attached to an attachment structure of the lower receiver to attach the lower receiver to the upper receiver. Actuation of the disassembly button detaches the mating attachment structure from the attachment structure to detach the lower receiver from the upper receiver.

Abstract:
A firearm having a bolt carrier comprising an operating rod slot that is open at an end of the bolt carrier. The bolt carrier also includes a cam slot extending from the operating rod slot. The firearm includes a bolt having a protrusion extending from the bolt which enters and is movable within the cam slot. The firearm further includes an operating rod comprising a piston and a foot. The foot is disposed within the operating rod slot to prevent the separation of the bolt from the bolt carrier and to connect the operating rod to the bolt carrier.

Abstract:
A firearm including a bolt for securing a barrel such that the barrel attaches to a receiver with increased repeatability at the same location. The bolt included a tapered end and may also include a threaded section. The receiver comprises a barrel attachment feature which allows the bolt to pass through and can also include threads for engaging the bolt. The barrel comprises a beveled recess for engaging the tapered end of the bolt. The angle of the tapered end and the beveled recess are approximately reciprocal. The bolt passes through the receiver and its tapered end engages the beveled recess to secure the barrel to the receiver.

In their study, Dim Coumou, from the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, and Alexander Robinson, from Universidad Complutense de Madrid, used state-of-the-art climate models to project changes in the trend of heat extremes under two future warming scenariosRCP2.6 and RCP8.5throughout thCo-author of the study, Alexander Robinson, said: "Our three- and five-sigma thresholds are defined by the variability a region has experienced in the past, so the absolute temperatures associated with these types of event will differ in different parts of the world. Nonetheless these events represe

Polar Ice Sheets Shrinking Worldwide, Study Confirms
According to glaciologist Alexander Robinson, "We've had a good idea of what the ice sheets are doing, but it seems this study really brings it all together in one data set that gives a much clearer picture.
"The more we exceed the threshold, the faster it melts," says PIK's Alexander Robinson. In a business-as-usual scenario of greenhouse-gas emissions, he says, the planet could warm by as much as eight degrees, leading to one fifth of the ice sheet melting within 500 years and a complete loss in 2000

This is not what one would call a rapid collapse, said Alexander Robinson, lead-author of the study published in Nature Climate Change. However, compared to what has happened in our planets history, it is fast. And we might already be approaching the critical threshold.
