Patent attributes
A ring accessory for a firearm, such as a pistol or a long gun, includes an upper portion configured to attach to a frame of the firearm beneath a barrel and forward of a trigger guard. A vertical portion extends vertically downward from the upper portion, and a horizontal portion is connected to the vertical portion, extending horizontally therefrom toward the trigger guard. The vertical portion and the horizontal portion, together, define a horizontally-elongated aperture configured to be gripped by two or more fingers of a non-shooting hand of a user, with the two or more fingers extending horizontally therethrough, and with a palm of the non-shooting hand supporting the firearm from beneath the horizontal portion. A method for holding a firearm by a person using a compact shooting stance is also provided.
