Measurement system
A measurement system according the current application facilitates the positioning of scope relative to a rifle or other firearm and the subsequent measurements needed to procure a ring or set of rings with which to mount the scope to the rifle. A base is attached to a rail of the rifle and the scope is placed in a holding ring. Spacers are placed between the base and the holding ring to locate the scope. The base, spacers and holding ring are removably attached to each other.
POINTING DEVICES, APPARATUS, SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR HIGH SHOCK ENVIRONMENTS
Devices, apparatus, systems and methods for providing accurate linear and angular positioning with a payload mounted to a beam having freely moveable ends. The payload can be a laser pointer mounted on a firearm, which maintains the initial precise pointing during and after exposure in high G shock and vibration environments. Vertical and lateral adjustment controls can adjust minute changes in beam orientation. Precision adjustments can be performed in a zero G, one G, or high G environment and maintains the adjustment daring and after being exposed to a high G shock or vibration environment.

Small fire-arm sight mount
A weapon sight interface for mounting a device on a weapon having a rear sight and front sight, including an enhanced rear sight for replacing the rear sight of the weapon, having a base for installing in a dovetail slot of the weapon, an elongated tail that extends along the barrel of the weapon; and one or more tritium dots or white dots configured to enable use of the enhanced rear sight as a rear sight of the weapon; and also having a quick release interface for attaching to the device and locking onto the enhanced rear sight, having guides to securely fit onto the enhanced rear sight, a quick release lever, which in a lint position causes the guides to lock onto the enhanced rear sight and in a second position releases the enhanced rear sight so that the quick release interface can slide off.
FIREARM ACCESSORY MOUNT
A firearm accessory mount is described herein. The firearm accessory mount is manufactured by securing a raw amount of material, shaping the raw amount of material to generate receiving structures positioned on a mounting base along a common axis, forming apertures through the receiving structures to form accessory rings along a single axis from one direction and at least substantially dividing each of the accessory rings into receivers and caps.
Method for shock attenuation device using a pivot mechanism
A method for forming a weapon accessory mounting device to attach to a projectile firing weapon is disclosed. A flexure for receiving a body of the weapon accessory is formed. A pivot portion is formed at a first end of the flexure to attach the flexure to the weapon at a first attachment region. A second attachment portion is formed at a second end of the flexure to attach the flexure to the weapon at a second attachment region. A first aperture is formed in the pivot portion configured to receive a pivot pin. A second aperture in the weapon accessory body receives the pivot pin at a weapon accessory body first end to attach the weapon accessory body first end to the pivot portion. The pivot portion is configured to convert at least a portion of energy of a weapon shock recoil from translational energy to rotational energy.
