Clamp mount

Apparatus for securing an accessory to a gun, comprising:

• a gun;
• an accessory for said gun;
• a structural member configured with a first mounting component and a first clamping component;
• a second mounting component adapted to cooperate with said first mounting component for mounting said structural member to said gun;
• a second clamping component including a clamp member having an end pivotally secured to said structural member about a first axis for pivoting said second clamping component to cooperate with said first clamping component for clamping the accessory to said structural member;
• an adjusting screw including a threaded shaft having an end secured to said end of said clamp member of said second clamping component, said threaded shaft extending along a second axis perpendicular to said first axis;
• and
• a threaded bore in said structural member, said threaded bore extending along said second axis and threadedly engaging said threaded shaft for permitting said end of said clamp member of said second clamping component to be rotated about said second axis thereby threading and unthreading said threaded shaft in said threaded bore for adjusting separation between said first clamping component and said second clamping component.
