(13) As seen in FIGS. 2 and 3, rear bottom sight 20 comprises rear face 22, lateral faces 24 and 26, front face 28, bottom face 30, and top faces 32.

(14) First and second notch side faces 34 are defined on rear face 22 and top faces 32, and are at a first predetermined distance from lateral faces 24 and 26 respectively. In a preferred embodiment, first and second notch side faces 34 are approximately perpendicular to top faces 32 and the first predetermined distance from respective lateral faces 24 and 26 is the same. Extending from first and second notch side faces 34, towards each other, are first and second notch top faces 36. In a preferred embodiment, first and second notch top faces 36 are approximately perpendicular to their respective first and second notch side faces 34. In a preferred embodiment, rear face 22 is angled.

(15) First and second channel side faces 38 are defined on rear face 22 and first and second notch top faces 36, and are at a second predetermined distance from lateral faces 24 and 26 respectively. In a preferred embodiment, first and second channel side faces 38 are approximately perpendicular to first and second notch top faces 36 and the second predetermined distance from respective lateral faces 24 and 26 is the same. Extending from first and second channel side faces 38 is channel face 40. In a preferred embodiment, channel face 40 is approximately perpendicular to first and second channel side faces 38.

(16) Rear bottom sight 20 further comprises rear bottom mounting interface 50 comprising bottom mounting interface face 52 having lateral mounting interface faces 54, rear mounting interface face 56, and front mounting interface face 60. Mounting interface notch 58 is defined on bottom mounting interface face 52, and bottom mounting interface face 52 extends a third predetermined distance between lateral mounting interface faces 54. In a preferred embodiment, rear mounting interface face 56 is angled.

(17) Rear top sight 70 comprises rear face 72, lateral faces 74 and 76, front face 78, bottom face 80, and first and second top faces 82. Extending from first and second top faces 82 are first and second rear sight strips 84. In a preferred embodiment, first and second rear sight strips 84 are approximately perpendicular to the first and second top faces 82 respectively and extend horizontally on rear top sight 70. In a preferred embodiment, first and second rear sight strips 84 are white or bright colors, contrasting and can be fluorescent. Rear top sight 70 mounts onto rear bottom sight 20. Extending from first and second rear sight strips 84 are respective first and second sight strip bases 86 that terminate at respective first and second sight strip base lips 88. First and second sight strip bases 86 extend approximately perpendicularly from first and second rear sight strips 84. Extending from lateral faces 74 and 76 are first and second top faces 82 that terminate at channel side faces 90. Rear top sight 70 further comprises channel face 92 positioned in between channel side faces 90 to define a U shape.

(18) Rear top sight 70 comprises rear top mounting interface 100 having mounting interface base 102, and lateral mounting interface faces 104. Rear top sight 70 further comprises mounting interface locking protrusion 108. Mounting interface notch 58 receives mounting interface locking protrusion 108 when rear top sight 70 mounts onto rear bottom sight 20.

(19) As seen in FIG. 4, first and second rear sight strips 84 are approximately flush with rear face 22 when rear top sight 70 mounts onto rear bottom sight 20.

(20) As seen in FIGS. 5 and 6, front bottom sight 120 comprises front base bottom 128. Protruding from base bottom 128 is post 148. Front bottom sight 120 further comprises face 130 that extends to top end 132. Extending from top end 132 is notch 134 that extends to locking lip 136. Extending from locking lip 136 is top 138 that extends to valley 140. Valley 140 extends to convex section 142. Convex section 142 extends to top face 144 having end 146.

(21) Front top sight 160 comprises top face 162. Extending from top face 162 is front sight strip 164. In a preferred embodiment, front sight strip 164 is approximately perpendicular to top face 162 and extends horizontally on front top sight 160. In a preferred embodiment, front sight strip 164 is white or bright colors, contrasting and can be fluorescent. Front top sight 160 mounts onto front bottom sight 120. Extending from front sight strip 164 is sight strip base 166 that terminates at sight strip base lip 168. Sight strip base 166 extends approximately perpendicularly from front sight strip 164.

(22) Front top sight 160 further comprises interior face 170 that extends from sight strip base lip 168 to interior hill 172. Interior hill 172 extends to concave section 174. Concave section 174 extends to interior base 176 having end 178. Concave section 174 receives convex section 142 when front top sight 160 mounts onto front bottom sight 120. Front sight strip 164 is approximately flush with face 130 when front top sight 160 mounts onto front bottom sight 120.

(23) As seen in FIG. 7, front sight strip 164 is approximately flush with face 130 when front top sight 160 mounts onto front bottom sight 120.

(24) As seen in FIGS. 8 and 9, present invention 10 is installed onto firearm F. Although not illustrated, it is understood that front top sight 160 and front bottom sight 120 comprise a means to attach to firearm F. Such a means to attach to firearm F may be as an example at least one screw extending through front top sight 160 and front bottom sight 120 to firearm F.

(25) Present invention 10 therefore produces a continuous sight strip when viewing front sight strip 164 through a notch defined by rear top sight 70 mounted onto rear bottom sight 20 when front sight strip 164 is aligned with first and second rear sight strips 84, resulting in improved shooting accuracy, elevation accuracy, and sighting speed or sight alignment speed.

(26) The foregoing description conveys the best understanding of the objectives and advantages of the present invention. Different embodiments may be made of the inventive concept of this invention.
