A device is provided for establishing or releasing the coupling between an adjustment ring, which can be rotated on a base element by way of a detent mechanism and is provided with an adjustment shaft for optical elements, and a cylindrical index ring, which is inserted between the adjustment ring and the base element so as to rotate in relation to an index mark provided on the base element, wherein an inwardly directed ring surface is integrally formed on the edge of the index ring pointing toward the adjustment ring, at least one friction element under spring pressure is inserted between the adjustment ring and the ring surface, and the spring pressure can be removed by way of a pressure element inserted into the top face of the adjustment ring or by way of a lever mechanism.

A sighting system for a firearm and related methods are disclosed. The sighting system has front and rear flip-up sights, wherein the front sight comprises a flip-up portion having an aperture through which a sight post can partially extend; a knob comprising one or more notches on a first side and the sight post extending from a second side; at least one detent arranged to face and interact with the one or more notches. The knob is configured to rotate about a first axis, where the rotation causes the sight post to move in a first direction along the first axis; tilting of the knob in a second direction based on the detent interfacing with the notches; and tilting of the sight post in the second direction, thereby forcing at least a portion of the sight post to press against the aperture, or a combination thereof.
