Abstract
A novel and improved rotating stock butt and rotating sight apparatus that applies to a shoulder fired firearm where the firing mechanism and the sight apparatus is elevated above the stock butt when in a horizontal shooting position. This system comprises a cooperation between the rotating stock butt and the rotating sight apparatus that allows the firing mechanism and the barrel of the firearm to be off set to either the right or to the left of the stock butt while the sight of the rotating sight apparatus can be rotated and secured at the top center of the firearm barrel, allowing the shooter minimal head movement in the gun mount.
