US12410981 - Additive manufacturing enhanced sidearm

The patent describes an additive manufactured sidearm featuring an ejectable barrel assembly with two barrels arranged in an under-over configuration, each capable of firing keyed rounds with multiple keyways. It includes advanced electronic components such as a high voltage generator, microprocessor, and safety mechanisms integrated into the grip assembly for enhanced functionality and safety.

Claim 1

1. An additive manufacturing enhanced sidearm comprising: an ejectable barrel group assembly having two barrels, each with a chamber, in an under and over configuration thereby forming a top and bottom, and preloaded with keyed rounds each having a series of circumferential keyways, wherein each of said projectiles is keyed via a keyway in a chamber in said barrel, each of said projectiles in said barrel group is keyed having 0 to 4 keyways formed in the side of the projectile, said projectiles having a propellant and primer means disposed behind said projectile in said chamber, a series of electrical contacts disposed within said chambers in communication with said primer means, a rail disposed at the bottom of the barrels with a locking notch means, a battery disposed within said ejectable barrel group, a grip assembly in communication with said ejectable barrel group assembly, said grip assembly comprising: a hand grip, a circuit board disposed within said hand grip, a trigger group disposed upon said circuit board, a high voltage generator circuit disposed on said circuit board, at least one recoil plate assembly disposed upon said circuit board, at least one microprocessor disposed upon said circuit board, and a removable safety block that interferes with the battery-to-circuit board connection. an ejectable barrel group assembly having two barrels, each with a chamber, in an under and over configuration thereby forming a top and bottom, and preloaded with keyed rounds each having a series of circumferential keyways, wherein each of said projectiles is keyed via a keyway in a chamber in said barrel, each of said projectiles in said barrel group is keyed having 0 to 4 keyways formed in the side of the projectile, said projectiles having a propellant and primer means disposed behind said projectile in said chamber, a series of electrical contacts disposed within said chambers in communication with said primer means, a rail disposed at the bottom of the barrels with a locking notch means, a battery disposed within said ejectable barrel group, a grip assembly in communication with said ejectable barrel group assembly, said grip assembly comprising: a hand grip, a circuit board disposed within said hand grip, a trigger group disposed upon said circuit board, a high voltage generator circuit disposed on said circuit board, at least one recoil plate assembly disposed upon said circuit board, at least one microprocessor disposed upon said circuit board, and a removable safety block that interferes with the battery-to-circuit board connection. a hand grip, a circuit board disposed within said hand grip, a trigger group disposed upon said circuit board, a high voltage generator circuit disposed on said circuit board, at least one recoil plate assembly disposed upon said circuit board, at least one microprocessor disposed upon said circuit board, and a removable safety block that interferes with the battery-to-circuit board connection.
