Scope mount assembly with integral leveler
A scope mount assembly is provided including a scope mount having a reference axis and a level indicator rotatably joined with the scope mount. The level indicator can be rotatable from a stored mode, where a level indicator axis is transverse to the reference axis, to an extended mode, where the level indicator axis is transverse to the reference axis, and the level indicator projects laterally away from the reference axis. The assembly can include a first magnet that magnetically secures the level indicator in the stored mode, and a second magnet that magnetically secures the level indicator in the extended mode. A user rearward of the mount can view the laterally extending level indicator when the level indicator is in the extended mode, and optionally when the level indicator is in the stored mode, to confirm the level of the scope and any weapon to which it is mounted.

ARCHERY BOW SIGHT
A bow sight is provided including a mounting bracket including a proximal end and a distal end, a sight housing and a sight pin mounted in the housing. The proximal end can define substantially vertical slots, one above the other, to provide a first vertical adjustment of the archery bow sight. The sight housing can define another substantially vertical slot. The mounting bracket can be joined with an arm that is movable relative to the substantially vertical housing slot so that the sight housing and sight pin can be vertically adjusted up and down, moving simultaneously with one another, relative to the mounting bracket to provide a second vertical adjustment of the archery bow sight. The arm can extend from a windage adjuster mounted to the mounting bracket.
SHIELD EDGE PROTECTION SYSTEM
Implementations described and claimed herein provide a shield system that includes a shield, an edge protection system, and an edge coupling. The edge protection system may comprise a plurality of corner protectors disposed on a length of an edge protector. The edge protection system may be installable along a peripheral edge of the shield such that the edge protection system surrounds the outer perimeter of the shield. The edge coupling may be configured to engage the edge protection system and retain the edge protection system on the shield.
CAMOUFLAGE FABRICS HAVING OPTIMIZED APPARENT COLOR AND NIR/SWIR SPECTRA
A method of evaluating camouflage for a specified area of responsibility, the method includes calculating an apparent spectrum of the camouflage at far field with respect to an observer; calculating an apparent spectrum of the specified area of responsibility at far field with respect to the observer; calculating a difference between the apparent spectrum of the camouflage with the apparent spectrum of the area of responsibility; and comparing the difference to a predetermined threshold, thereby determining suitability of the camouflage for the specified area of responsibility.
Variable Range Compensating Device
A variable range compensating device, including at least some of a housing having an optical cavity defined at least partially within the housing, wherein the optical cavity extends from an incoming image aperture to an outgoing image aperture; and two or more reflective optical elements, wherein each reflective optical element is adjustably positioned within at least a portion of the optical cavity, and wherein adjustment of at least one of the reflective optical elements adjusts the reflective optical elements such that a target image entering the incoming image aperture is reflected by the reflective optical elements, so as to exit the outgoing image aperture at a determined offset.

Leveling jack for a gun sight of a rifle
A leveling jack for a gun sight (or ‘scope’) of a gun or rifle is provided. The leveling jack is movable between at least a first and a second position and is secured to a gun or rifle. The leveling jack has a bottom edge which may be secured to, for example, the picatinny rail of the top of the gun or rifle and an extended bar which contacts and levels the gun sight. The leveling jack may also be secured directly to the gun or rifle without utilizing a picatinny rail. The leveling jack is especially suitable for leveling the gun sight of the gun or rifle in a quick and efficient manner.
