First Claim
1. A sighting device for a gun with a top-of-barrel obstruction to sighting, the gun being comprised of a gun barrel with a longitudinal axis, a gun handle with a longitudinal axis attached to the gun barrel, forming a sighting plane which passes through both the axis of the gun barrel and the gun handle, and a gun body, with the sighting device comprising:
- a sight body;
a gun mount bracket for securing the sight body to the gun body; and
an optics system, comprising a plurality of reflective surfaces for presenting an image to an eyepiece adjacent the rear of the barrel and above said gun barrel and in said sighting plane, by reflecting an image horizontally around said top-of-barrel obstruction.

Abstract
A sighting device for a paint ball or other gun which uses optics to allow a user to sight along the top of the paint ball gun, around the feed tube or other obstruction along the top of the gun. The device is an optical reflective device which reflects an image around the paint ball feed tube to present an image to the gun user which appears directly above the top of the gun.
