Patent number: 8443541Abstract: An optical sight is provided and may include a housing having a base, a first post extending from the base, and a second post extending from the base. The optical sight may additionally include an optical element supported by the housing between the first post and the second post, a reticle displayed on the optical element, and an illumination system generating the reticle. A first actuation member may be disposed on one of the first post and the second post and may selectively control an intensity of the reticle by controlling an output of the illumination system.Type: GrantFiled: March 13, 2012Date of Patent: May 21, 2013Assignee: Trijicon, Inc.Inventors: Jerry Glen Sabaldan Elpedes, Darin W. Schick, Mark William Lister, Joshua Lee Varner

Patent number: 8215050Abstract: An optical sight is provided and may include an optical element and a reticle displayed on the optical element. A housing of the optical sight may include a base, a first post extending from the base, a second post extending from the base, and a cross member extending between the first post and the second post to define an opening receiving the optical element therein. The first post and the second post may extend above the opening and away from the base a greater distance than a top surface of the cross member.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2009Date of Patent: July 10, 2012Assignee: Trijicon, Inc.Inventors: Jerry Glen Sabaldan Elpedes, Darin W. Schick, Mark William Lister, Joshua Lee Varner
