ABSTRACT:
A sunshade for attachment to the end of a rifle scope or receiver for blocking the sun's direct rays or light from other sources from entering a shooter's eye when the shooter is aiming at a target in the general direction of the sun or source of light. The sunshade is adapted to surround the rear eyepiece of the rifle scope or be placed proximate the rear sight of a rifle and employs a shield to protect against direct light from the luminous source entering into the shooter's eyes. The shield, taking generally the shape of a semi-circle, is made from most any material, hard or flexible, and is supported in place by means of internal reinforcements which attach to a clamp or other structural mechanism adapted to reside around the scope rear eyepiece or attached to the rifle receiver. For bolt action rifles, the shield is made of flexible meterial in order that the bolt of the rifle may be drawn past the shield by the shield flexing out of the way.
