Benefits of technology

The invention relates to an apparatus and method that allows a user to target a target through two sight windows. The first body has a first sight window and a first indicator, while the second body has a second sight window and a second indicator. The first and second indicators are visible through the first sight window. The width of the first sight window is greater than the distance between the third indicator and the fourth indicator. The technical effect of the invention is improved target accuracy and visualization through the use of two sight windows and two indicators.

Problems solved by technology

Traditional iron sights use a front sight having a central pin or indicator, which helps to align the device on the center of the target; however, because the pin extends to the center, it generally occludes a portion of the target.
A drawback to traditional iron sighs is occlusion of the target by the sight structures.

Abstract

In some embodiments, an apparatus comprises a first body and a second body aligned upon an axis. The first body comprises a first sight window and a first side edge, a second side edge and a base edge defining the first sight window. The second body comprises a second sight window and a first side edge, a second side edge and a base edge defining the second sight window. The axis extends through a center of the first sight window and through a center of the second sight window.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims the benefit of U.S. Patent Application No. 63 / 021,091, filed May 7, 2020, the entire content of which is hereby incorporated herein by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]This invention relates generally to sighting devices and more particularly to sights used on projectile launching devices, optical devices and other suitable devices used to view a target. Iron sights are generally known in the art as a pair of physical aiming structures located a distance from one another. When positioned and aligned appropriately, these aiming structures help align a device with the target.[0003]Traditional iron sights use a front sight having a central pin or indicator, which helps to align the device on the center of the target; however, because the pin extends to the center, it generally occludes a portion of the target. A drawback to traditional iron sighs is occlusion of the target by the sight structures. There rema...
