Abstract
Implementations of an integrated optical sight mount are provided. In some implementations, the optical sight mount may be integrated into the frame of a handgun via a locking block and used to position an optical sight over the slide thereof. In some implementations, the integrated optical sight mount may comprise a mounting platform that is supported by a first side wall and a second side wall, each of which extend from a locking block seated in the frame of the handgun. In some implementations, the mounting platform is configured for an optical gun sight to be secured thereon. In some implementations, the mounting platform and the side walls define an opening therebetween configured (e.g., dimensioned) so that the slide assembly of the handgun is able to pass therethrough without interference.
