  1. 1
    What I claim is;1·. A device of the character described com prising a spring carrying- a sightf and aTotaiy member having a plurality, of faces on 5 its periphery, said faces being at progressively increasing distances from the1 axis of said member and being adapted for direct at‘frpeTept the spring to hold the sight at the desired elevation. 10 comprisTT FT charaCter described _ mprising a shaft;a disk eccentrically XTlSv Of flthfeKhi,ft and formed wiib a plurality of flat races on its periphery, said faces being at progressively increasing dis15 tances from the axis of said shaft;and a spring sight to engage each of said faces accoidmg to the adjustment desired.
