ABSTRACT:
A Universal Pistol Grip for Camcorders having a rectangular mounting plate with an upward facing mounting pad. The mounting plate and pad has a elongated horizontal slot for attaching a camcorder, a securing screw that extends through and is retained in the horizontal slot. This horizontal slot with attachment screw allows horizontal adjustment for the rigid grip. The rigid grip is attached to the mounting plate by a bolt. This bolt has a flat top recessed in a countersunk hole in the mounting plate. The bolt extends through a hole in the solid portion of the rigid grips top. A nut in the hollow portion of the rigid grip secures the plate to the grip. This attachment allows the plate to swivel 180 degrees on the grip. The plate can be secured in the preferred position by tightening the securing nut. The elongated downward extending portion of the grip is of a hollow construction. Attached to the rigid grip is a non-removable flexible handle. This flexible handle is equipped with a device for adjustment to the user's wrist. The elongated flexible handle can be stored in the hollow portion of the rigid grip. The flexible handle is retained in the rigid grip by a base plate. The base plate covers the hollow portion of the rigid grip. The base plate is equipped with a hinged opening hatch with an opening tab.
