Claims19
A device for mitigating parallax in a reflex sight, the reflex sight having a front portion for receiving light and a rear portion for providing a visual of a target to a user, the device comprising:
- a cylindrical housing, the cylindrical housing having a threaded portion for securing to at least one of:
- the front portion of the reflex sight or the rear portion of the reflex sight;
- a plurality of equal length bars, each of the plurality of equal length bars having a first end and a second end, the first end of each of the plurality of equal length bars is secured to the cylindrical housing and the second end of each of the plurality of equal length bars extends towards a center position;
- a connecting member, the connecting member configured for connecting the second ends of the plurality of equal length bars around the center position, the connecting member further configured for defining a hole at the center position, wherein the hole defined by the connecting member indicates a center of the visual provided to the user.
A device for mitigating parallax in a reflex sight, the reflex sight having a front portion for receiving light and a rear portion for providing a visual of a target to a user, the device comprising:
- a support member positioned in an optical path of the reflex sight;
- and
- a position indicator located on the support member, the position indicator being configured to indicate a center of the visual provided to the user.
A device for mitigating parallax in a reflex sight, the reflex sight having a front portion for receiving light and a rear portion for providing a visual of a target to a user, the device comprising:
- a cylindrical housing, the cylindrical housing configured for engaging with at least one of:
- the front portion of the reflex sight or the rear portion of the reflex sight;
- a plurality of equal length bars, each of the plurality of equal length bars having a first end and a second end, the first end of each of the plurality of equal length bars is secured to the cylindrical housing and the second end of each of the plurality of equal length bars extends towards a center position;
- a connecting member, the connecting member configured for connecting the second ends of the plurality of equal length bars around the center position, the connecting member further configured for defining a hole at the center position, wherein the hole defined by the connecting member indicates a center of the visual provided to the user.
