A turret assembly configured to be coupleable to the combination of a rifle scope and a rifle, to adjust the rifle scope relative to the rifle is provided. The turret assembly includes a turret body, a jacking screw, and a turret cap. The turret assembly may also include a locking mechanism including a locking pin configured to prevent rotational movement of the turret cap relative to the turret body. The turret assembly may include a stopping mechanism configured to limit rotational movement of the turret cap relative to the turret body. The stopping mechanism may include a zero stop ring which defines a zero stop point which prevents further rotational movement of the turret cap. The turret assembly may also include an indicator configured to depict information about the position of the turret cap relative to the turret body, where the indicator is configured for only translational movement.

Turret assembly

A firearm is described that includes an integrated power source, socket, and conductor connecting the power source to the socket. By integrating these elements into a firearm, a powered accessory can be attached to the firearm without the need for a mounting rail attached to a firearm. Furthermore, powered accessories need not have their own integrated power sources, but rather can connect to the power source within the firearm. This reduces the weight and physical dimensions of both firearms and accessories.

A compound mounting clamp is described that is configured for mounting an accessory (e.g., a laser sight, a telescopic sight, a bayonet, a light) to a firearm that includes either one of a Picatinny-type mounting rail or an arcuate mounting rail. The compound mounting clamp includes a clamp base with mounting surfaces that enable mounting to either one of a Picatinny-type mounting rail or the arcuate mounting rail. The mounting surfaces of the clamp base include: (1) two planar faces that are perpendicular to a first direction; and (2) two angled faces that are: (a) at an oblique angle with respect to the first direction; and (b) disposed between the two planar faces.

Firearm accessory attachment clamp

A firearm accessory adjustment system is described. The system provides for independent elevation and windage adjustment for a laser associated with a firearm. Each of the elevation and windage adjustments can be made independently using single adjustments on the side of the firearm. The system can be integral to a sidearm.

Accessory mounting system

A two-position firearm safety assembly is disclosed. The assembly includes a lever detent spring and a first lever, both of which are pivotally coupled to a firearm frame. The assembly can also include a second lever and a link connecting the two levers. The detent spring is in contact with the link and/or the first lever at an assembly pivot point, putting the detent spring in compression. The compression force on the detent spring provides two distinct safety assembly positions (e.g., fire and safe positions), and prevents the safety assembly from perching between the two-positions. The properties of the detent spring (e.g., the material, shape, hardness, spring constant, pre-compression in the safety assembly, etc.) can be customized as desired to adjust the properties of the safety assembly, such as the forces needed to toggle the assembly.

Methods, systems and computer readable media for object location using a mobile device are described. The method can include obtaining, at a mobile device, information about a missing object and obtaining, at the mobile device, information about a background surface. The method can also include detecting, using a motion sensor in the mobile device, movement of the mobile device, and acquiring, using one or more image sensors coupled to a processor in the mobile device, one or more images. The method can further include processing the one or more images to detect any candidate objects having a similarity within a given threshold to the missing object.
