Abstract: An adjustable firearm scope mounting assembly includes first and second mounting members, each including a base portion fixable relative to a firearm, and an upper portion configured to support a respective scope portion. The first upper portion is selectively adjustable relative to the first base portion in vertical and lateral directions. The second upper portion is selectively adjustable relative to the second base portion in a vertical direction. In one embodiment, one of the first base portion or the first upper portion includes a vertically extending element movable along an arcuate path within a vertically extending socket defined by the other of the first base portion or the first upper portion.
