Where Gun's grants concentrate

Gun Guardian LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 2 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under F41A (Functional Features OR Details Common TO Both Smallarms AND Ordnance, e.g. CANNONS; Mountings FOR Smallarms OR Ordnance). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2021. By volume, Gun sits between Guangdong Fosber Intelligent Equipment Co., Ltd. and H2 PowerTech, LLC.

Gun's three-year grant acceleration

Gun Guardian LLC shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 6 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
