Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to the field of firearms, and, more specifically, to laser sights for firearms, particularly laser sights having multiple laser diodes. Various embodiments of the disclosed systems may include two or more lasers in a single unit, and may not only be relatively less expensive relative to units with two separate lasers and housings, but they may also be easier to calibrate and use. For example, in various embodiments, the system may include two or more lasers that may be adjusted for windage and elevation (e.g., calibrated) simultaneously. Thus, in various embodiments, one or more infrared diodes may be calibrated automatically when a corresponding visible light diode is calibrated, and vice versa.

Abstract: Embodiments provide modular illumination systems that may be used with any handgun platform, and are not specific to any make or model. Some embodiments may provide lighting, for instance visible light and/or infrared light for use in low light or dark environments. Also provided in various embodiments are aiming and/or sighting systems that may be equipped with an IR sight or a laser sight, such as a red or green laser. In various embodiments, the illumination modules may couple to the handgun via a mounting member that is integral to the handgun body, and the mounting member may be recessed or otherwise concealed and/or protected by the handgun body. Thus, in various embodiments, no portion of the mounting member (or the corresponding mounting element on the illumination module) is exposed or visible when the illumination module is coupled to the mounting member, and a conventional holster may be used.

Abstract: The present invention provides a sighting device for a firearm having a trigger guard, a frame with an underside portion forward of the trigger guard, and a handgrip with a front strap. The sighting device has a body having a first portion including an illumination device. The body defines an engagement feature operable term the bubbly connectivity for portion of the trigger guard. The body has an elongated extension portion that extends from the first portion. The extension portion is shaped to underlie a lower portion of the trigger guard from the first portion to the front strap. The extension portion has a free end including a switch, and the extension portion includes a conductor operably connecting the switch to the illumination device.

Abstract: A modular multi-accessory foregrip configured to mount on a rail on a weapon. The modular foregrip includes a grip assembly and a tang or center shaft. The grip assembly configured to be removably coupled with the tang. In some embodiments, the modular foregrip having a power supply disposed in the tang. In some embodiments, the grip assembly comprising two or more component grips, each with a different accessory. In some embodiments, one of the grips has a switch to control power in an accessory in that grip and a second switch to control power to an accessory in another grip.

Abstract: The present invention overcomes the limitations of the prior art by providing a sighting device for a firearm having a handgrip with a front strap, a back strap, and a free end. The sighting device has a body including a sleeve defining a bore sized to closely encircle at least a portion of the handgrip. The sleeve has a front portion configured to wrap about at least a forward front strap portion of the firearm, and has a rear portion configured to wrap about at least a rear back strap portion of the firearm. A laser device is connected to the body. The body may be an integral element, and may have a switch on the front span. The body may have a removable lock device that engages an upper rear protrusion of the frame, and the device may attach to the firearm without any fasteners engaging the firearm.

Abstract: A compact laser aiming assembly for a firearm. A laser module having a front and a back is adapted to be rotatably seated in a socket having a window therein. The front of the module has a bearing with a convex, curved front surface and a window therein, and the laser module is adapted to support a laser in back of the bearing so that when the front of the bearing is seated in the socket, a beam of light emitted from the laser propagates through the window in the front of the laser module and through the window in the socket. A socket, having a front and a back and a window therein, is also provided. The back has a concave surface formed therein, the bearing of the laser module being seated in the socket, and the socket further has an adjustment mechanism coupled to the socket and the laser module for rotating the laser module in the socket so as to aim the beam of light.

Abstract: A laser sighting device for a firearm and a method for mounting a laser sighting device on a firearm. A laser sighting device for a firearm comprises a holder adapted to attach to the handgrip of the firearm such that the firearm may be held in a firing position by the handgrip with the device installed thereon, the holder including a first compartment for receiving a laser and holding the laser so as to propagate a beam of light substantially in the muzzle direction of the firearm, and a second compartment for receiving a battery to power the laser, a switch for activation of the laser by the user's hand holding the handgrip in firing position, and an electrical circuit disposed within the holder for interconnecting a laser disposed in the first compartment, a battery disposed in the second compartment and the switch.

Abstract: A sighting device for a weapon. The device forms an integral part of the handgun and projects a laser beam onto the impact point of the intended target. The device includes a laser assembly that is preferably disposed adjacent the front of the trigger guard of the handgun. In one preferred embodiment, a laser and laser drive circuit are mounted on a flexible circuit board to accommodate movement of the laser with respect to the laser drive circuit during sight adjustments. Preferably, the laser drive circuit comprises MOSFET devices in analog mode which use comparatively low power. A switch assembly is integrally disposed in a crotch formed between the trigger guard and the handgrip. The power supply may be disposed in the bottom of the handgun's magazine which is in electrical contact with the laser sighting device.
