EJECTOR PORT LOCK
Abstract
A holster comprises a body defining a receptacle configures to
receive a firearm having a slide with an ejection port. It has a
movable lever operable to selectably move into and out of

lever is biased into a position on contact with the surface to
prevent the extraction of the firearm in the absence of an
application of force to the lever.

Description
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
[0001] This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional
Patent Application No. 63/158,070, filed on Mar. 8, 2021, entitled
"EJECTOR PORT LOCK", which is hereby incorporated by reference in
its entirety for all that is taught and disclosed therein.
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0002] The present invention relates to ejector port lock
systems.
BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY
[0003] The ejector port lock system can be fitted into almost any
semi auto pistol holster without a separate lock for each different
gun model.
[0004] This system locks the pistol in as it is returned to the
holster. In all other locking devices that we know of, the systems
mechanism is concentrated from the rear of the pistol down to the
ejector port.
[0005] The above disadvantage is addressed by a holster comprising
a body defining a receptacle configures to receive a firearm having
a slide with an ejection port. It has a movable lever operable to
selectably move into and out of engagement with a surface
associated with the ejection port. The lever is biased into a
position on contact with the surface to prevent the extraction of
the firearm in the absence of an application of force to the
lever.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF A PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
[0028] The major parts of this system are:
TABLE-US-00001 1--main body 2--thumb strut lever 3--pin 4--spring
5--housing 6--trigger guard stop 7--spacer 8--lock 9--lock edge
10--leading edge of lock lever 11--thumb strut lever return stop
12--main body return stop 13--thumb strut lever opening stop
14--main body opening stop 15--thumb strut lever guide slot
16--housing guide 17--top of pistol slide 18--pistol 19--pistol
trigger guard 20--thumb strut lever button
Operation
[0029] When the pistol (18) is inserted into the holster the top of
the slide (17) engages the leading edge of the lock arm (10) and as
the pistol mover forward it pushes the lock upward against spring
(4). The upward travel is controlled when the thumb strut lever
opening stop (13) contacts the main body opening stop (14). When
the pistol trigger guard (19) reaches the trigger guard stop (6)
the lock lowers into the ejector port by spring (4) until the thumb
strut lever return stop (11) engages the main body return stop (12)
thus securing the pistol.
[0030] To draw the pistol out push the thumb strut lever button
(20) to the rear, causing the ejector port lock (8) to move the
engaging locking edge (9) out of locking position. The pistol is
now free to be drawn. The thumb strut lever (2) is spring loaded
and will return to the locked position. Horizontal movement of the
thumb strut lever (2) is controlled by a guide slot (15) that rides
on the housing guide (16).
