Mount for attaching a device to a firearm

摘要

A mount for attaching a device to a firearm includes a longitudinal base adapted to carry the device to be mounted. The base has a track extending along a portion of the length thereof and a block is slidably mounted in the track. The block is biased toward the front end of the base by a spring. The block is adapted to be attached to a first fixed member at one end of a firearm barrel. The rear end of the base is adapted to be attached to a second fixed member at the other end of the firearm barrel. When properly mounted between the ends of the firearm barrel, the mount is held in place by the action of the spring, which forces the block attachment against the first fixed member and the rear attachment against the second fixed member. The rear attachment also includes spring means to prevent the mount from wobbling from side-to-side when attached to the first and second fixed members.
