A rail integration system (RIS; also called a rail accessory system (RAS), rail interface system, rail system, mount, base, gun rail, or simply a rail [1]) is a generic term for any standardized attachment system for mounting firearm accessories via bar-like straight brackets (i.e. "rails ...
Zeiss inner rail, [1] generally simply referred to as Zeiss rail, is a ringless scope sight mounting system introduced by Zeiss in 1990 as an alternative to traditional ring mounts. [2] A patent was granted in 1992, and the patent expired in 2008.
The AN/PEQ-2 has two infrared laser emitters;one narrow beam used for aiming the rifle and one wide beam used for illuminating targets, like a flashlight. [9] The beams can only be seen through night vision goggles. [9] Each beam can be zeroed independently, and the illuminator's radius is adjustable. The two lasers are tied into one 6-mode ...
The proprietary rail systems use matching slide-in mount fasteners to connect the telescopic sight to the gun. Some proprietary rails also offer the possibility to tilt the sight up to 1° (60 moa; 17.5 mrad) to the left or right. Technical advantages of rail mounting systems are the reliability and robustness of such mounting solutions.
