The dovetail rib or foot 23 aforesaid, is arranged laterslly'with respect to the ring 24 end enters a transvcrse dovetail groove 36 in the upper face of a base 37 formed in its lower face with a dovetail groove 38 adapting the base to be slipped over a dovetail fastening block 39 having screw holes 39 and fixed to the top of the barrel by screws 40 one of which is shown in Fig. 3. The said base 37 is provided with u thumbscrew 41 having its end pointed for entrance into a positioning notch 42 located in the left hm'id side of the block 39 so that in case of the removal of the mount from the gun, it may be replaced thereupon in the av act position which it had thereon before it was talccn oil. In order to provide for the lateral adjustment of end with a collar 13 to receive the inner end of a micrometer screw 4-1. the said inner end of which bus n groove 45 receiving 1 pin 46 mounted in the collar-l3.
At its outer end l the screw is provided with it knurled. beveled and l graduated thimble 47 which fits over and turns upon the outer edge oi the said collar 423 which furnished with a mark 43 for reading with the gruduntions cu the said sleeve. The inner end of the screw ll enters an internally threaded sleeve 4 S arranged transversely with respect to the base .97 and rising within the ccnler of the dovetail groove in the upper lace. thereof.

In order to take up any slocs or wear. and to assist in maintaining the mounting without deviation in any of the positions in which it may be set, i form H shallow oblong recess 50 in the host bevel ol' the loot 23 and in this recess locate a longitudinally bowed spring 51 the crowning central portion of which engages with the front wall of the dovetail lit; in the top oi the base 37.
I do not in this cuntmake any claim to the lormation of a longitudinal groove in the center of the lower face of the telescope for the reception oi the nose of the spring actuated plunger as that will form the subject matter of another application to be filed ol' even date herewith by Frank F.
