Abstract: The present invention is a sling system utilizing a rear sling fitting for a long firearm, such as a rifle. Such fittings typically are positioned between the stock and receiver. It presents a fitting body with an aperture to slide over a rifle receiver tube and a connection bar extending from a reverse of the fitting body. A point-type sling attachment may then be attached to the connection bar and be able to slide left and right across the back of the weapon, allowing for quickly adaptable left or right positioning of the weapon. Registration geometry may be added and positioned to further allow interface with weapon geometry and prevent rotation of the fitting during use. The connection bar may be positioned on another component of the weapon, such as the receiver or the stock, should the weapon not have a receiver extension tube. A convertible sling and forward sling mount are also disclosed for cooperative use with the fitting, completing the system.

Abstract: The present invention is a rail mounted back-up sight with at least one, but preferred two, illumination apparatuses mounted thereon. The back-up sight features a sight housing that is configured to selectively alternate between a stowed and a spring-biased deployed position. Any type of illumination apparatus may be used, but the preferred apparatus is a flashlight, mounted upon wither side of a sight base. Either a front or a rear sight may be utilized as could different types of illumination apparatuses.

Abstract: The present invention is a battery assist devise to aid in the locking and unlocking of the bolt in a long firearm. The battery assist devise attaches to the both catch button of the firearm and thereafter acts as an extension thereof. The battery assist device comprises an interface head and attachment plate, which secure about the bolt catch button, and a curved lever that protrudes from the head and projects around the underside of the firearm, through the trigger guard area, until it projects slightly on the opposite side of the firearm. The lever then is capable of ambidextrous operation.
