An optical sight with a rectifier and device for indicating turns of the rectifier includes a longitudinal body that houses sight elements coupled to the rectifier. The rectifier includes a rotatable control element and an indicator protruding from an upper surface of the rectifier. The indicator includes a longitudinal identification protrusion rotatable about an axis that is perpendicular to its length and parallel to an axis of rotation of the control element. A coding device is associated with the longitudinal identification protrusion and is mounted on the upper surface of the rectifier above an upper surface of the longitudinal identification protrusion, wherein a rotated position of the longitudinal identification protrusion relative to the coding device provides an indication to a user of the optical sight of turning of the rectifier. A zero stop mechanism is configured with the control element of the rectifier.

A firearms sight is provided. The sight has a body having a rear aperture disc connected at one end, and a front sight disc connected at the opposite end. In use, a user may look through the rear aperture disc to align a marker of the front sight disc with an aperture of the rear aperture disc, the marker being visible through the rear aperture disc.

A novel and improved rotating stock butt and rotating sight apparatus that applies to a shoulder fired firearm where the firing mechanism and the sight apparatus is elevated above the stock butt when in a horizontal shooting position. This system comprises a cooperation between the rotating stock butt and the rotating sight apparatus that allows the firing mechanism and the barrel of the firearm to be off set to either the right or to the left of the stock butt while the sight of the rotating sight apparatus can be rotated and secured at the top center of the firearm barrel, allowing the shooter minimal head movement in the gun mount.

An elongated rear sight for a firearm is described herein. The elongated sight includes an elongated aperture bounded by a top portion, a first side portion, and a second side portion. A first elongated rod is interior and approximate to the top portion, and extends along a length of the top portion. A second elongated rod is interior and approximate to the first side portion, and extends along a length of the first side portion. A third elongated rod is interior and approximate to the second side portion, and extends along a length of the second side portion. The elongated rods may be light gathering rods that glow in the presence of light. The elongated aperture channels a user's eye(s) towards the target, while the three elongated rods are used to align with a front sight of the firearm to aim towards a target.

Device and related methods for improving the accuracy and precision of firearms fitted with optical sights. The device comprises a small alignment pattern for indexing against a small, central region of a target picture aimpoint or reticle. The alignment pattern is applied to an auxiliary lens fixed in position externally behind an ocular lens. The auxiliary lens is supported by a frame secured to the optical sight or the auxiliary lens is made to adhere to the outside surface of the ocular lens. Some embodiments refract or condition light to improve target pictures. Alternatively, an alignment pattern, without an auxiliary lens, is applied directly to or made integral with an ocular lens during the manufacture of an optical sight. In general, referencing the alignment pattern with the reticle, by adjusting eye placement until a desired alignment is observed, provides consistent shooter positioning and reduced parallax.
