ABSTRACT:
An internally mounted light beam sight suitable for use in automatic pistols and other weapons is provided by replacing the conventional recoil spring guide rod with a hollow tube having substantially the same exterior shape and dimensions, but containing a laser beam generation module within its hollow bore. A collar surrounds the module near a first end. The collar has a part-spherical outer surface which engages a matching-spherical inner surface within the tube so that the angular orientation of the module may be adjusted by relative rotation of the two part-spherical surfaces. The collar is desirably split by one cut-through so that it may be spread apart to slip over an end of the module. The module and collar have an interlocking groove and ridge which retains the collar in place on the module. Transverse adjustment screws in the tube bear on a distal end of the module so that the angular orientation of the module may be varied with respect to the tube. This allows the light beam provided by the module to be properly aimed to compensate for variations in the angle of emergence of the light beam from the module.
