Patent ID: 7957072

Claim:
An apparatus comprising an optical sight that includes: first and second sections, said second section being movable between spaced first and second positions relative to said first section; limit structure that prevents movement of said second section away from said first position past said second position; optics supported on said second section, said sight operating optically in first and second operational modes that are different when said second section is respectively in said first and second positions; a member movable relative to said first section from a third position through a fourth position to a fifth position; coupling structure operatively coupling said member to said second section so that as said member moves from said third position to said fourth position said coupling structure moves said second section from said first position to said second position, and so that when said member is on a side of said fourth position remote from said third position said coupling structure resiliently urges said second section toward said limit structure; and retaining structure that can releasably retain said member in a position on a side of said fourth position remote from said third position.
