DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0050] The invention relates to the design of an adjustable rear sight assembly which is developed for improving the low hit rate that is caused by user or external errors in the daily use of firearms (4) and/or professional marksmanship contests; which provides a more stable shooting for the user by producing the fixed rear sight piece used in aiming the firearm (4) with adjustable height and direction.

[0051] The rear sight lever (1), sliding rear sight (3) and closure part (2) pieces form the rear sight assembly by being mounted to each other. The adjustable rear sight assembly is again formed on the firearm (4) and it may be connected to the mounting surface (12).

[0052] According to the preferred embodiment of the invention, the adjustable rear sight assembly comprises; [0053] at least one spring socket (5) formed on the surface mounted to the weapon (4) for positioning at least one height adjustment spring (1.1) therein; connection member socket (7) formed on the surface not mounted to the weapon for receiving the connection and adjustment element (6) which can move the rear sight lever up and down with respect to the firearm (4) surface with its movement; pin sockets (9) aiming to receive at least one pin (8) together with the pin sockets (9) formed on the closure part (3) and the rear sight lever (1) equipped with at least sliding rear sight socket (3.3) formed at the opposite end of the end in which the said pin sockets (9) are formed, [0054] sliding rear sight (1) equipped with a mounting protrusion (3.4) aiming to exit from its body and connect to the sliding rear sight socket (3.3), at least one mounting spring (3.1) aiming to be placed within the sliding rear sight socket (3.3) by connecting to the said mounting protrusion (3.4) and the adjustment member (3.2) which can change the direction of the sliding rear sight (3) vertically to the shooting direction of the weapon relative to the rear sight lever (1) by stretching and releasing the said mounting spring/springs (3.1) within the sliding rear sight socket (3.3), [0055] the closure part (2), on the upper surface of which the rear sight lever surface (2.1) is formed for the placement of the rear sight lever (1) and pin sockets (9) are formed for the placement of the said pins (8), and on the lower surface of which the adaptation gap (2.2) aiming to connect to the mounting surface (12) configured on the weapon is formed.

[0056] Thanks to the above-described embodiment, the rear sight lever (1) can move up and down by being separated from the closure part (2) in the connection axis formed by the pins (8). This embodiment provides the movement required for raising or lowering the rear sight in the adjustable rear sight assembly.

[0057] Again, changing the direction of the sliding rear sight (3) vertically to the shooting direction of the weapon relative to the rear sight lever (1) allows for the adjustment of the rear sight with its right and left movement.

[0058] According to FIG. 2, which shows the preferred embodiment of the invention, the connection member socket (7) formed on the rear sight lever (1) is equipped with at least one ball socket (1.3). This ball socket (1.3) comprises at least one ball (1.2) positioned in the way to be associated with the connection and adjustment element (6) inside the same.

[0059] According to FIG. 10, which shows one of the preferred embodiments of the invention, the connection and adjustment element (6) is in screw form. The surface of the screw cap facing the connection member socket (7) is in direct contact with the ball (1.2).

[0060] According to FIG. 10, the said surface of the screw cap comprises at least one protrusion (6.1) and recess (6.2). In the cases where the user rotates the connection and adjustment element (6) (adjusts the rear sight lever (1)) since the surface and the ball (1.2) are in contact, since the ball (1.2) moves between the protrusion (6.1) and recess (6.2), it will be able to warn the user by forming sound and vibration.

[0061] Again, according to FIG. 10 which shows the preferred embodiment of the invention, all of the said surfaces of the screw cap are equipped with protrusions (6.1) and recesses (6.2) that are formed successively. This embodiment will enable the protrusions (6.1) and recesses (6.2) to interact with the ball (1.2) along the entire movement of the connection and adjustment element (6) and thereby, for the user to be informed.

[0062] According to FIG. 9, the section where the rear sight assembly will be mounted on the firearm (4) is designed in a way that a protrusion will be present at the middle part of the mounting surface (12) and a gap at both sides of this protrusion.

[0063] Within this embodiment, the adaptation gap (2.2) aims to be seated on the protrusion in the middle part and the wall of this closure part (2) to be placed on the two gaps.

[0064] According to FIG. 9, the mounting surface (12) is equipped with connection member sockets (7). These sockets (7) overlap with the connection member sockets (7) formed on the closure part (2) and aim to lock by means of a mounting member (10).

[0065] According to the preferred embodiment, the mounting member (10) is in screw form and can be fixed by a sleeve (11).

[0066] According to FIG. 6, which shows the preferred embodiment of the invention, the mounting protrusion (3.4) formed on the sliding rear sight (1) is associated with 2 mounting springs (3.1). In this embodiment, one of the springs has a long structure while the other is short. Thereby, the 2 springs (3.1) may be operated by being placed inside each other.

[0067] To form the adjustable rear sight assembly of the invention, the following steps may be followed.

[0068] First, the height adjustment spring (1.1) whose spring socket (5) at the bottom part of the rear sight lever (1) has been greased is tightened and fixed. Then, the greased ball (1.2) is placed in the ball socket (1.4) part on the top part.

[0069] For the mounting of the sliding rear sight (3); the long mounting spring (3.1) is passed within the short mounting spring (3.1) and placed within the spring socket (5) at the front of the sliding rear sight (3). The sliding rear sight (3) whose springs (3.1) are placed is passed within the sliding rear sight socket (3.3) at the back part of the rear sight lever (1) and fixed with the adjustment member (3.2).

[0070] The resulting partial assembly is placed within the rear sight lever socket (2.1) at the top part of the closure part (2) in the way that the pin sockets (7) and connection member sockets (7) will correspond. Then, the pin (8) is passed from the corresponding pin sockets (9) and fixing is provided.

[0071] The adjustable rear sight assembly formed is placed in the connection member sockets (7) sleeve (11) on the firearm (4). The mounting members (10) are seated on the sleeves (4) and the mounting is complete.

[0072] After the adjustable rear sight assembly whose mounting is finished is mounted to the firearm (4), the right-left direction adjustment of the adjustable rear sight is performed with the rear sight lever (1) being fixed to the adjustment member (3.2) and sliding rear sight socket (3.3) at the back. At the same time, the ball (1.2) placed at the top of the rear sight lever (1) provides for the up and down movement of the adjustable rear sight with the connection member (6) that provides for the fixing to the closure part (2).

[0073] Thereby, the direction and height adjustment feature during the aiming provides for the user that the time loss is minimized during aiming and the adjustable rear sight assembly that provides the maximum shooting ratio can be formed.
