Patent attributes
The present invention is a telescopic sight mount for attachment to a firearm having a longitudinal vent rib on its barrel. The mount is readily attachable and detachable and includes a cantilevered main body having a front portion and a back portion, a clamp portion, and at least three clamping screws. The screws adjoin the front portion of the main body with the clamp portion and draw the front and clamp portions horizontally towards one another and into rigid clamping engagement with the vent rib. The back portion of the main body is able to receive and mount a telescopic sight. The mount can be rigidly mounted onto the firearm with stability sufficient to remain in place permanently despite recoil, and can also be easily detached from the firearm if desired.
