The Weaver mount was developed by William Ralph Weaver (1905 – 8 November 1975) at his telescopic sight company W.R. Weaver Co., which he founded in 1930. [3] Previous systems included the Leupold/Redfield mounts. [4] Compared to the Leupold mount, the Weaver rail is not as strong and cannot be adjusted for windage. [4]
NATO Accessory Rail (STANAG 4694) The NATO Accessory Rail (NAR), defined by NATO Standardization Agreement (STANAG) 4694, is a rail interface system standard for mounting accessory equipment such as telescopic sights, tactical lights, laser aiming modules, night vision devices, reflex sights, foregrips, bipods and bayonets to small arms such as rifles and pistols.
A rail system mounted on top of a SIG SG 550 A dovetail rail on a rifle receiver for mounting a sight. 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 ...
They developed achromatic holographic optics that compensate for any change in the emission wavelength of the laser diode with temperature. [3] [4] [5] The sights are designed to be mounted on small arms via a MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny or Weaver rail, and powered by either AA, N or CR123 size batteries for up to 1,100 hours
C79 3.4×28 sight adjustment controls. The C79 sight is attached to a mounting rail on the receiver of the weapon. On Canadian Forces weapons, this is in the form of a modified Weaver rail, also known as a "Diemaco rail". Two adjustment knobs are used to secure the base to the receiver.
The only significant difference between the MIL-STD-1913 rail and the similar Weaver rail mount are the size and shapes of the slots. Whereas the earlier Weaver rail is modified from a low, wide dovetail rail and has rounded slots, the 1913 rail has a more pronounced angular section and square-bottomed slots. This means that an accessory ...
Three Weaver rail mounts are present on the G22: The top handle scope mount (which also has an integrated movable six-setting rear sight) a small mount just below the muzzle intended for a Walther-produced laser sight, and a longer mount under the forearm for bipods, flashlights, etc. [3]
The C7A1 (Diemaco C7FT) replaces the iron sight/carrying handle assembly used on the C7 with a modified Weaver rail for mounting optics. Canadian development of rails preceded U.S. standardization of the MIL-STD-1913 "Picatinny rail", so the "Canadian Rail" or "Diemaco Rail" differs slightly. There are 14 slots instead of 13, and each slot is ...
