Abstract
A rail mounting assembly for mounting an accessory to a rail of a firearm includes a base portion arranged to support the accessory. The assembly includes a lock nut receiving recess on a first side portion and a moveable clamp on a second side portion where the side portions cooperate to grip the rail. A crossbar extends between the side portions such that the crossbar is movable relative to the moveable clamp. A lock nut is threadably engageable to an end of the crossbar proximate to the first side portion and a lock plate is positioned within the lock nut receiving recess between the lock nut and a spring disk when the lock nut is threadably engaged with the crossbar. The lock nut receiving recess is shaped to prevent rotation of the lock plate while allowing rotation of the lock nut.
