Abstract

The Windage and Elevation Adjustment Emblem is a single diagrammatic representation that shows the user of a firearm, firearm scope, or other sighting device the correct direction in which to turn the adjustment mechanisms (screws, knobs, dials, etc.) of the sighting system to make the proper directional movements for both elevation (vertical—raise/lower) and windage (horizontal—right/left) without the use of words or the need to read.

Claims

1. It is claimed that the Windage and Elevation Adjustment Emblem will allow the user of an adjustable sighted firearm, firearm scope, and/or other sighting device to quickly discern, with a single diagram (i.e., emblem), without words and/or the need to read, the correct manner (i.e., direction) in which to turn the sighting adjustment mechanism(s) (knobs, dials, screws, etc.) to adjust both the windage (horizontal—

right/left) and elevation (vertical—

raise/lower) of the sighting system. (Note;

adjustments in windage and elevation may also be referred to as adjustments in the point of impact.)

2. The Windage and Elevation Adjustment Emblem can be manufactured and configured in many styles and/or manner (size, color(s), where and how it will be applied, materials used, direction, size and/or number of arrows, size and type of lines, etc.) to fit the design needs of any manufacturer for their particular firearm, firearm scope, and/or other sighting device, can be attached by many modes including stamped, embossed, decal, paint, printed (on device or in manual) and/or other process, and can be applied either during or after production.
