A sight blade structure defines a sight adjustment member having an internally threaded screw passage that receives the adjustment screw. A lock nut is threaded onto the adjustment screw and has an external tapered surface in engagement with the second outwardly flaring passage end surface. The sight blade mount defines a slot through which a support for the sight adjustment member is movable, providing for windage adjustment of the sight blade structure by rotation of the adjustment screw. The tapered surfaces of the adjustment screw and lock nut provide for locking of the sight blade at any desired position. | 03-14-2013 |
20140259856 | Rear Sight for Firearm - A rear sight comprises a base member and a top member. The base member comprises a fitting portion and a base member bearing surface. The fitting portion of the base member is attachable to a firearm. The top member comprises a rear sight alignment portion and a top member bearing surface. The top member bearing surface is slidably engageable with the base member bearing surface for pivotable movement of the top member relative to the base member between lowered and raised positions. Movement of the top member away from the lowered position and toward the raised position increases the distance between the rear sight alignment portion and a barrel axis of the firearm to thereby adjust the elevation of the rear sight alignment portion of the rear sight. | 09-18-2014 |

20110308133 | Enhanced Accuracy Gun Iron Sighting System - Rugged, rapid-target-acquisition iron sighting systems in which least one of the front sight and the rear sight has a multiple-lead thread elevation screw post for vertically adjusting a sighting point are disclosed. The use of a multiple-lead thread elevation screw post permits the relatively fast adjustability of a coarse threaded screw post while providing the stability of a fine-threaded screw post. Embodiments of the present invention also include guns equipped such iron sighting systems. | 12-22-2011 |
20120060402 | Cantilevered and off-set weapon sights - The weapon sights can be used simultaneously in conjunction with another optical sight and can be mounted on the same weapon accessory rail as the other optical sight. The weapon sights include a front sight and a rear sight that detachably mount to the weapon's accessory rail, but are cantilevered and off-set so that they do not interfere with the optical sight mounted to the same accessory rail. The cantilevered configuration and off-set orientation of the rear sight assembly and the front sight post also allow the shooter to transition quickly between the weapon sight of this invention and an optical sight by simply canting the weapon 45 degrees to bring the desired sight on target and into the vertical of the weapon. | 03-15-2012 |
