An apparatus to be mounted onto a muzzle of a firearm consists of a muzzle device, a clamp, and a fastening mechanism. The muzzle device can be a compensator or a muzzle brake. The clamp and the fastening mechanism is used to hold the muzzle device against the barrel of the firearm. The muzzle device consists of a barrel receiving aperture that traverses through a structural body. When a muzzle of a firearm is positioned within the barrel receiving aperture, the clamp is pressed against the structural body so that the fastening mechanism can be used to secure the muzzle device in place. Since the apparatus does not utilize the threads located on the barrel of the firearm, the overall quality of the threads is preserved.

Various examples of a firearm front sight are described. An apparatus implementable on a firearm includes a front sight that is detachably mountable on a component of the firearm. The front sight includes an optic insert and a housing comprising a void configured to accommodate the optic insert therein. The optic insert is receivable into and removable from the void by at least partially traversing through an imaginary plane defined by and parallel to a first primary side of the housing. When the front sight is mounted on the component of the firearm with the optic insert received in the void, the first primary side of the housing physically contacts the component such that the optic insert is interlockingly received in the housing.

A scope mount apparatus for attaching an optical scope to a firearm is provided. The scope mount apparatus includes at least one base with at least one fastening element for attaching the base to the firearm. The scope mount apparatus also includes two scope rings operatively connected to the at least one base. An integral sighting system is mounted with respect to the base. The scope mount apparatus is configured such that an unobstructed line of sight extends between the scope rings and the base. The unobstructed line of sight contacts or intersects the sighting system so that a user of the firearm has the option of using either a scope in the scope rings or the integrated sighting system to aim at a target.
