Rubber Band Mounted Reticle Leveling Device for Use in Leveling Telescopic Rifle Sight

摘要

A device for aligning a telescopic sight includes two opposing reference cards connected to each other within a common plane by a connecting bar and a level indicator on a surface of at least one card. The alignment device is attached to the front or rear scope base of a firearm, so that the front surfaces of two opposing reference cards appear on either side of the reticle. Once the alignment device is secured to the scope base of the firearm, the reticle may be aligned with the bore axis by rotating the telescopic sight until the horizontal cross hair is parallel with any corresponding pair of reference lines of the reference cards. The alignment device can also include an adapter that allows the alignment device to be mounted to a firearm by coupling to a corresponding slot of a mounting platform.

1. A device for aligning the cross-hairs of a reticle of a telescopic sight mounted on a mounting surface of a firearm, the device comprising:
a first card having at least one reference line arrayed across a front surface of the first card and at least one reference line arrayed across a rear surface of the first card; a second card having at least one reference line arrayed across a front surface of the second card and at least one reference line arrayed across a rear surface of the second card; a connecting element holding the first card and the second card together in a common plane, the connecting element having at least one flat surface parallel to the reference lines of the reference cards; and a level mounted to an aperture in the first card and oriented in a direction parallel to the flat surface; wherein when the device is positioned flush against the mounting surface of the firearm, the level indicates the levelness of the mounting surface, and the reference lines indicate the position of a properly aligned reticle.
