Abstract: The present disclosure describes an adjustment mechanism for a scope comprising: a first surface and a second surface, the first surface configured to engage the second surface axially when an amount of force is applied to the first surface, the first surface also configured to transfer torque applied to it to the second surface when the first surface and the second surface are engaged, and a member adjustable to apply force to the first surface to engage the first surface and the second surface, the member being adjustable using only one or more human fingers, wherein an adjustment of the member can always be initiated using only one or more human fingers.

Abstract: A scope adjustment system includes a turret cap assembly, a saddle assembly, and a quick spanner assembly. The turret cap assembly includes a ring with a plurality of regularly spaced apart teeth residing circumferentially around the ring. The saddle assembly includes a transportation element in mechanical communication with a plunger. The saddle assembly includes a click element to engage the teeth of the ring. The quick spanner assembly includes a bolt that may be coupled to the transportation element, a cam lock hinged to the bolt, and a pressure plate residing between the bolt and the cam lock. The bolt can be screwed into the transportation element, and the cam lock can be set to apply a force on the pressure plate such that the transportation element engages the plunger. When engaged, the plunger is responsive to rotations of the turret cap to adjust, e.g., an aiming reticle.
