Sighting device replicating shotgun pattern spread
First Claim
1. A sighting device for framing a target to be fired at with a weapon including a first light source that is a single laser module and a power source connectable to the first light source, the first light source having a first mode in which it emits light and a second mode in which it does not emit light, the first light source emanating a single beam of light that passes through a diffraction lens which splits the single beam into a pattern of three or more light beams defining an area inside the pattern, wherein the area of the pattern increases as the beams of light move farther from the first light source.

Abstract
A sighting device replicates the spread pattern of pellets exiting the barrel of a shotgun. The sighting device includes a light source (preferably a laser) and a power source connectable to the light source. The device may also include a mount to attach the sighting device to a shotgun. The sighting device preferably projects a circular pattern of individual light beams wherein the circumference of the circular pattern increases as the light beams move farther from the sighting device to replicate the spread of shotgun pellets. The sighting device may also project a beam of light in the center of the pattern.
