US 2026/0227142 A1 · 3D Printed Bolt Receiver with side anchor surfaces

Abstract

A firearm sighting system and method are disclosed. A firearm receiver includes an upper mounting interface and a lateral mounting interface on a side region of the receiver. A first optical sight is mounted to the upper mounting interface and defines a first optical axis. A second optical sight is mounted to the lateral mounting interface, directly or via a mounting bracket, and defines a second optical axis laterally offset from the first optical axis. The lateral offset positions the second optical sight for binocular use such that, when the firearm is shouldered, a shooter can view through the second optical sight with one eye while simultaneously viewing through the first optical sight with the other eye. The lateral mounting interface may be located on either side of the receiver. In some embodiments, an AR-style upper receiver includes a laterally projecting horizontal mounting surface defining the lateral mounting interface.
