  2. Telescopic sight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telescopic_sight

    A Swift model 687M variable power rifle telescopic sight with parallax compensation (the ring around the objective lens is used for making parallax adjustments). Telescopic sights are classified in terms of the optical magnification (i.e. "power") and the objective lens diameter. For example, "10×50" would denote a fixed magnification factor ...

  3. I.O.R. - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I.O.R.

    Since early 2000s I.O.R. has started to produce very extravagant tactical scopes with technical solutions not often found by other brands. Among such innovations were: 35mm and 40mm main tubes to achieve greater elevation range, 6×, 7×, 8× and 10× magnification and parallax adjustment in the form of a ring

  4. C79 optical sight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C79_optical_sight

    Windage adjustments are made on the left hand side of the base, using a flat object such as a flat-head screwdriver or a coin. The windage adjustment is intended only for the initial sighting in procedure of the C79. Elevation adjustments are made via a rotary knob and are adjusted from 200 to 800 m. To bring the sight to a proper elevation ...

  5. PSO-1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PSO-1

    The PSO-1 has neither a focus adjustment nor a parallax compensation control. Most modern military tactical scopes with lower power fixed magnification such as the ACOG, C79 optical sight or SUSAT (intended for rapid close-intermediate range shots rather than long-range sniping) lack such features as well. Modern fixed magnification military ...

  6. Diopter sight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diopter_sight

    The parallax distance of a diopter sight is effectively adjusted to be the same as the sight distance. For example, with a distance of 1 m (1.1 yd) between the front and rear sight, the sighting system is effectively parallax adjusted to a distance of 1 m (1.1 yd) in front of the rear sight.

  7. Parallax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallax

    Typical standard factory parallax-free distances for hunting scopes are 100 yd (or 90 m) to make them suited for hunting shots that rarely exceed 300 yd/m. Some competition and military-style scopes without parallax compensation may be adjusted to be parallax free at ranges up to 300 yd/m to make them better suited for aiming at longer ranges.

  8. Adjustable Ranging Telescope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adjustable_Ranging_Telescope

    The Adjustable Ranging Telescope (ART) is a weapons sighting system typically used as a military rifle scope which was initially designed for service in the Vietnam War. It was developed and patented by James M. Leatherwood. It combines a range-finding scale inside of a telescopic sight with an adjustable cam integrated into the scope's mount ...

  9. SUIT (sight) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SUIT_(sight)

    The FN FAL from which the L1A1 Self-Loading Rifle was derived was not designed for mounting optical sights like the SUIT. To mount the SUIT, a new top cover was designed. This had a rail welded to the top to accept the sight mount, and two tabs at the rear of the pressed sheet steel cover which butted against the back of the upper receiver, preventing the cover from sliding on its rails and ...
