A level indicator for a telescopic sight can comprise a lower clamp member including a first end defining a threaded aperture and a second end defining a cylindrical head, and an upper clamp member including a first end defining an access hole and a second end defining a socket in which the cylindrical head is receivable. The upper clamp member is rotatable about the cylindrical head to form between the respective first ends of the clamp members a gap through which the telescopic sight is receivable into a space defined between the upper and lower clamp members. A level housing in which a level is received can extend from either clamp member. A single threaded fastener is receivable in the threaded aperture through the access hole to secure the upper clamp member to the lower clamp member around the telescopic sight.

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.

A compensating mechanism includes a base, an adjusting unit, an adjusting cover and a stop unit. The adjusting unit is disposed in the base. The adjusting cover connects to the adjusting unit and includes a curved groove. The stop unit is disposed between the adjusting unit and the base and includes a pin. When the adjusting cover is rotated, the adjusting unit is only rotated with respect to the base and the stop unit is axially moved with respect to the base so that the pin enters or leaves the curved groove.

An image offsetting apparatus for producing an offset image pathway and presenting the offset image pathway to a user or an optic, including at least some of a prism element comprising a first reflective surface/refracting face and a second reflective surface/refracting face, wherein the prism element is attached or coupled so as to provide the offset image pathway offset from a direct image pathway between a target object and the user or the optic.

A method for calculation of firearm sight calibration instructions by processing an image of a shooting target. The method comprises receiving at least one image from at least one imaging device, the at least one image depicts a shooting target with a shot group comprising a plurality of bullet holes, receiving an indication of a firearm type and/or a firearm sight type to calibrate, using at least one hardware processor for calculating firearm sight calibration instructions according to at least one relative location of one of the plurality of bullet holes in relation to another of the plurality of bullet holes by processing the at least one image and at least one predefined parameter of the firearm and/or the firearm sight type, and outputting presentation instructions to present the firearm sight calibration instructions on a display of a client device.

A modular digital optical gunsight (MDOG) peripheral module validation device includes an MDOG data connector configured to connect to an MDOG peripheral module and to receive and/or transmit MDOG data in a first format to or from the MDOG peripheral module, a translation module configured to translate the MDOG data in the first format to a second format that is compatible with a personal computer (PC), and a PC data connector configured to connect the validation device to a PC and to receive and/or transmit the MDOG data in the second format to the PC. The translation module can be configured to translate data in the second format to the first format.

An automated weapon system is comprised a human transported weapon for use by a person, comprising a barrel movable within a stock, utilized for propelling a fired munition towards an area of sighting for the human transported weapon. A targeting subsystem identifies a chosen target in the area of sighting. A computational subsystem, responsive to the targeting subsystem, determines where the chosen target is, and determines where to aim the barrel so that the munitions will strike the chosen target. The barrel is movable within a stock, utilized for propelling a fired munition towards an area of sighting for the human transported weapon. A positioning means adjusts the aim of the barrel responsive to the computational subsystem. A firing subsystem, fires the munition at the chosen target responsive to the positioning means. In one embodiment, detection logic detects a no-shoot situation prior to the firing of the munition; and, inhibit logic prevents the firing logic from firing the munitions responsive to the detection logic detecting a no shoot situation.

A firearm system includes a firearm and a computer. Electronics in the firearm determine data that includes a pathway between different points of aim of the firearm as the firearm moves. The computer receives this data and builds an image of the pathway between the different points of aim of the firearm.
