The firearm sight may include a housing, a main body assembly, and a sight assembly. The main body assembly may be operably attached to the housing, and the sight assembly may be operably attached to the main body assembly. Moreover, a deployment mechanism may be operable to deploy the main body assembly and the sight assembly from a closed position at least partially within the housing to an open position at least partially outside of the housing. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A firearm sight, comprising: a housing; a main body assembly operably attached to the housing; a sight assembly operably attached to the main body assembly; and a deployment mechanism operable to deploy the main body assembly and the sight assembly from a closed position at least partially within the housing to an open position at least partially outside of the housing. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The firearm sight of claim 1, further comprising a latch assembly operably attached to the housing and configured to maintain the main body assembly and the sight assembly in the closed position. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The firearm sight of claim 2, wherein manipulation of the latch assembly, in cooperation with the deployment mechanism, deploys the main body assembly and the sight assembly to the open position. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The firearm sight of claim 1, wherein the main body assembly comprises a light source configured to display a sight indication on the sight assembly. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The firearm sight of claim 4, wherein the sight indication is adjustable about the sight assembly. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The firearm sight of claim 1, wherein the sight assembly comprises: a sight assembly frame; a reflective lens positioned about the sight assembly frame; and a sight indication displayed on the reflective lens. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The firearm sight of claim 1, wherein the main body assembly and the sight assembly are folded together and at least partially positioned within the housing when in the closed position. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The firearm sight of claim 1, wherein the main body assembly is disposed at an angle relative to the housing when in the open position. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The firearm sight of claim 1, wherein the sight assembly is substantially transverse to the main body assembly when in the open position. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) The firearm sight of claim 1, further comprising an attachment assembly configured to attach the housing to a firearm. ### Claim 11 (depends on 10) The firearm sight of claim 10, wherein the attachment assembly comprises: a fixed clamp; a moveable clamp operable to move relative to the fixed clamp between a clamped position and an unclamped position; and at least one coupling rod positioned between the fixed clamp and the moveable clamp, wherein manipulation of the at least one coupling rod moves the moveable clamp between the clamped position and the unclamped position. ### Claim 12 (depends on 11) The firearm sight of claim 11, wherein the at least one coupling rod is configured to at least partially protrude between at least two mounting projections on a rail assembly of the firearm. ### Claim 13 (depends on 11) The firearm sight of claim 11, wherein the clamp assembly at least partially comprises a silhouette that corresponds to a profile of a rail assembly of the firearm. ### Claim 14 A firearm sight, comprising: a housing attachable to a firearm; a main body assembly slidably attached to the housing; a sight assembly rotatably attached to the main body assembly; a deployment mechanism operable to deploy the main body assembly and the sight assembly from a closed position at least partially within the housing to an open position at least partially outside of the housing; and a latch assembly pivotably attached to the housing and configured to maintain the main body assembly and the sight assembly in the closed position, wherein manipulation of the latch assembly, in cooperation with the deployment mechanism, deploys the main body assembly and the sight assembly to the open position. ### Claim 15 (depends on 14) The firearm sight of claim 14, wherein the main body assembly comprises a light source configured to display a sight indication on the sight assembly. ### Claim 16 (depends on 15) The firearm sight of claim 15, wherein the sight indication is adjustable about the sight assembly. ### Claim 17 (depends on 14) The firearm sight of claim 14, wherein the sight assembly comprises: a sight assembly frame; a reflective lens positioned about the sight assembly frame; and a sight indication displayed on the reflective lens. ### Claim 18 (depends on 14) The firearm sight of claim 14, wherein the main body assembly and the sight assembly are folded together and at least partially positioned within the housing when in the closed position. ### Claim 19 (depends on 14) The firearm sight of claim 14, wherein the main body assembly is disposed at an angle relative to the housing when in the open position. ### Claim 20 A method for providing a firearm sight, comprising: providing a housing attachable to a firearm; attaching a main body assembly to the housing; attaching a sight assembly to the main body assembly; and attaching a deployment mechanism to the main body assembly, wherein the deployment mechanism is configured to deploy the main body assembly and the sight assembly from a closed position at least partially within the housing to an open position at least partially outside of the housing.
