Riflescope with integrated wind sensor and targeting display

Techniques are disclosed for providing the weapon-mounted optical scope that provides for wind sensing and the display a ballistic solution without the need for a separate device. Embodiments may include various additional sensors housed within the weapon-mounted optical scope to provide data for the ballistic solution calculation. Embodiments may further include a display at the input aperture rather than internally at the first-focal-plane, enabling for simpler, more cost effective embodiments. Additionally or alternatively, embodiments may include a laser, separate from the wind sensing laser, to perform range-finding functions, and/or an enhanced-image assembly.

Gun/rifle sight for tracking a moving object

A gun/rifle sight for tracking a moving object is provided. The gun sight may have a generally elongated frame secured at a distal end of a barrel of a gun in a perpendicular manner with respect to the barrel. In a first embodiment, the gun sight has plurality of pegs which independently and selectively move from a downward orientation to an upward orientation so as to allow a user to gauge the lead time for firing the gun at the moving object. In a second embodiment, a plurality of stationary pegs is secured in a staggered manner around a rotating cylindrical cover. When the cylindrical cover is rotated around the elongated stationary frame, only a single stationary peg may be moved to an upward orientation at a given time.

Method and system for aligning a point of aim with a point of impact for a projectile device
09759520 · 2017-09-12 · ·

Methods and systems for aligning a point of aim with a point of impact for a projectile device are disclosed. Using a superposition device coupled to the projectile device, at least one optical reference point is superposed within a first target area with at least one beam from the superposition device. A position of at least one of the optical reference points is noted. A projectile is expelled from the projectile device at a second target area, while the position of the at least one optical reference point is maintained, to create the point of impact. The point of aim for the projectile device is adjusted to align with the point of impact while the position of the at least one optical reference point is maintained.

Folding sight assembly
09733045 · 2017-08-15 ·

A folding sight assembly, comprising a housing having a lower region that is configured to hold a crosslock, and an upper region comprising a catch plate separated from a windage adjustment plate by a space. The assembly comprises a shaft and an engagement spring. The engagement spring comprises a longitudinally extending body that turns to form a retaining loop portion comprising an arcuate-shaped member having an opening formed therethrough. The shaft is disposed through the opening of the engagement spring and within the space formed between the windage adjustment and catch plates, and the engagement spring is further engaged with the housing and the crosslock to secure the component parts of the folding sight assembly to one another.
