An alignment mechanism has a base with a front right quadrant, a front left quadrant, a rear right quadrant, and a rear left quadrant. The base further defines a yaw axis and a pitch axis. A ball and socket linkage is located on the base at either the front right quadrant or front left quadrant at the intersection of the yaw axis and the pitch axis. A pressure plate assembly is also on the bottom surface of the base at the other of the front right quadrant and front left quadrant. A spring is in contact with one of the rear right quadrant and rear left quadrant and kitty-corner with the ball and socket linkage, with a yaw alignment surface on the other of the rear right quadrant and rear left quadrant. A pitch alignment surface is also on one of the rear right quadrant and rear left quadrant.

Methods and systems are disclosed for a modular weapon sight assembly. A weapon sight may include a base, an optical bench, an adjuster assembly, and/or a housing. The base may be configured to be releasably secured to a weapon. The optical bench may include a plurality of optical elements attached to a unitary component carrier. A relative position of the plurality of optical elements may define an optical path of the weapon sight. The base, the optical bench, the adjuster assembly, and the housing may be configured as separate modules. For example, the optical path of the optical bench may remain constant during adjustment and/or replacement of the base, the adjuster assembly, and/or the housing. A change in position of the base, the adjuster assembly, and/or the housing may not alter the relative position of the plurality of optical elements with respect to one another.

A pistol has a frame having a grip, an elongated slide connected to the frame and operable to reciprocate on the frame between a forward battery position and a rear position, the elongated slide having opposed forward and rear ends, a rear sight connected proximate the rear end of the elongated slide, the frame including a front sight support element at a forward frame end forward of the forward end of the elongated slide when the elongated slide is in the forward battery position, and the front sight support element including a front sight operably registered with the rear sight when the elongated slide is in the forward battery position. The elongated slide may define a passage receiving a barrel defining a muzzle aperture, and wherein the front sight support element defines an opening registered with the muzzle aperture.

A reflective sight for use with a firearm includes a rear sight including a light source; and a front sight including a reflective surface directly opposing the light source, where light emitted from the light source is reflected by the reflective surface toward the rear sight. The rear sight can include a plurality of light sources and at least two of the plurality of light sources emit different colors of light.

Provided is a dot sighting device with large caliber for binocular vision in which sighting can be performed rapidly and accurately by minimizing parallax. The dot sighting device is attached to and detached from a mount for a heavy machine gun. In addition, by using the dot sighting device with large caliber, a user can rapidly and accurately sight and fire a target by taking into consideration types and characteristics of the target and a distance to the target.

An angle adjustment mechanism includes a hollow cylindrical fine adjustment seat (1), a hollow cavity of the fine adjustment seat (1) are provided with a tapered fine adjustment screw (3) and a mounting seat (2) having a tapered surface (201), the tapered fine adjustment screw (3) and the mounting seat (2) are opposed to each other along the axial direction, the tapered surface (201) of the mounting seat (2) is provided with four strip-shaped planes (202) evenly spaced in the circumferential direction, two adjacent strip-shaped planes (202) are overlapped with the tapered surfaces of two tapered fine adjustment screws (3) respectively, the tapered fine adjustment screw (3) can move forward or backward in a cavity formed by an inner wall of the fine adjustment seat (1) and the tapered surface (201) of the mounting seat (2) along a strip-shaped plane (202) that coincides with the tapered fine adjustment screw (3).

An illuminated sighting system is provided and includes a front sight and a rear sight, wherein the front sight includes a front aperture and a front base, wherein, the front aperture further includes a front LED and a front sight post wherein the front sight post is adjustable in height and is optically communicated with the front LED such that when the front LED is illuminated, at least a portion of the front sight post is illuminated and wherein, the rear aperture further includes a sighting halo and a rear LED wherein the sighting halo is laterally adjustable and associated with the rear LED such that when the rear LED is illuminated, at least a portion of the sighting halo is illuminated.
