Weapon sighting system

Abstract

A laser sight for a gun having a stock and an accessory mounting rail, which includes a laser sight that has a housing having a longitudinal axis. The housing has a front end, and a rear end spaced from the front end along the longitudinal axis, and includes a laser module disposed in the housing proximate the front end. The laser sight further includes an optical sighting system that has a front sight disposed on top of the housing adjacent the front end, and a rear sight disposed on top of the housing proximate the rear end.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A laser sight for a gun having a stock and an accessory mounting rail comprising:
 a laser sight which comprises,
 a housing having a longitudinal axis which comprises
 a front end, and 
 a rear end spaced from the front end along the longitudinal axis 
 
 a laser module disposed in the housing proximate the front end, 
 an integrated circuit disposed in the housing and operably associated with the laser module, such that the integrated circuit regulates light emissions from the laser module, and 
 a battery storage area disposed in the housing and configured to receive a power source for energizing the laser module and the integrated circuit, and 
   an optical sighting system which comprises,
 a front sight disposed on the top of the housing adjacent the front end, the front sight defining a first member which comprises a first upper surface having a first width perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, and 
 a rear sight disposed on the top of the housing proximate the rear end, the rear sight defining a second member which comprises a second upper surface and a third upper surface, the second and third upper surfaces being separated by a notch, the second upper surface being spaced a first distance from the first upper surface and a second distance from the third upper surface, and the first upper surface rises above the second and third upper surfaces.
