Claim:
1. A visual target acquisition scope system for adjustable connection between a zero magnification scope producing 1× magnification image viewed with a first eye of a user and a high power scope producing a magnified image viewed with a second eye of the user, the system comprising: a system base including a power scope receiving arrangement adapted to receive a housing section of said high power scope therein; a clamp portion pivotally connected to said system base, said clamp portion including first and second clamping arms each having interior surface defining in combination a receiving space therebetween, said receiving space adapted to adjustably receive said zero magnification scope such that an elongated exterior surface of a housing of said zero magnification scope is accommodated in said receiving space and engages the interior surfaces of said first and second clamping arms; an adjustment locking mechanism connecting and controlling said system base and said clamp portion, said adjustment locking mechanism being adapted to bring optical axes of said scopes disposed in said power scope receiving arrangement and in said receiving space to a distance therebetween corresponding to an interpupillary distance between pupils of the first and second eyes of the user; and an arrangement for allowing simultaneous use of said zero magnification scope and said high power scope by a user, so as to simultaneously find a view of a target and maintain the target at an enlarged field of view, so that while the user is looking at an object through said zero magnification power scope with the first eye and looking at the object through the high power scope with the second eye, the target visible to the first eye is simultaneously visible to the second eye, so as to provide immediate acquisition and viewing of the object through the high power scope by the second eye.
