Abstract

See full text

An electronically illuminated open sight for handguns and rifles utilizes one or more light-emitting diodes to illuminate fiber optic rods held within rid compartments within a plurality of sight posts, including a front sight post and a rear sight post. Each fiber optic rod is viewable through a rod viewing port in the rear surface of each housing, making the illuminated fiber optic rods viewable only to the user of the handgun or rifle. The LEDs are housed within a sight body or control housing and fiber optic cables are run from the LEDs to the fiber optic rods in order to transfer light from the LEDs to the fiber optic rods within the sight posts. The LEDs can be switched on or off by a power switch, and a potentiometer controls the intensity of the LEDs.
