Sight systems comprise a sight receiver and a base attachable to and detachable from a sight receiver. A base carries a sighting component, such as an iron sight or optic sight. A sighting component may be attachably and detachably mounted to a base, or a sighting component may be made integrally with a base. A base may carry plural sighting components. Sight systems may include plural interchangeable sight receivers, bases, and/or sighting components. In some embodiments, interfitting structures at least partially restrain or retain a base and a sight receiver in longitudinal and lateral alignment, with such structures being longitudinally oriented. In some embodiments, interfitting structures at least partially restrain or retain a base and a sighting component in longitudinal alignment and lateral alignment, with such structures being longitudinally oriented. Some embodiments provide a fastener operable with a compatible and/or complementary surface, together used to urge interfitting parts together tightly.

In some embodiments, a sight system may comprise a base deployed with an elastomeric or otherwise resilient mounting pad. In some embodiments, an elastomeric or otherwise resilient mounting pad may be proud of a front or rear face of the base, or a side face of the base, or both. In some embodiments, the pad may be proud of a bottom surface of the base.

A system for assisting one's vision while aiming a firearm, includes a scope (but may also not include a scope) that is operable to capture light from an object downfield, and an optical collar that is operable to divert some or all of the light captured, and generate an image of the object. The scope has a first end and a second end. The first end captures light from the object located downfield from the first end, and looking through the second end, one receives the light captured by the first end, and generates an image of the object from the captured light. The optical collar includes a camera operable to generate an image from light that the camera receives, a beam-splitter optically aligned with the second end of the scope and operable to reflect a portion of the light captured by the scope's first end toward the camera, and a display operable to show the image generated by the camera from the light that the camera receives.

A device implementable on a firearm includes a rotation mount comprising a first main piece and a second main piece. The first main piece has a first mounting side configured to accommodate mounting of optics and accessories thereon. The second main piece has a second mounting side configured to accommodate a mounting surface on the firearm such that the rotation mount is installable on the firearm via the second main piece. The first main piece is configured with a first coupling portion with a generally cone-shaped first feature. The second main piece is configured with a second coupling portion with a generally cone-shaped second feature configured to mate with the first feature of the first coupling portion such that the first main piece is pivotable around a rotation axis of the rotation mount when the first main piece and the second main piece are pivotably joined together.
