Abstract
This mounting assembly is particularly adapted for mounting telescopic sights on pistols. The mount base is secured to the pistol at its breechward end by a screw which is threaded into a tapped hole in the pistol, which tapped hole is conventionally formed at the factory and is standard on pistols. The muzzleward end of the mount base is secured to the pistol barrel or pistol frame by means of a clamp. A screw is threaded into the clamp and tightens the clamp against the mount base. The mount base is provided with opposed surfaces which are forced against complementary surfaces on the clamp to tighten the clamp about the barrel or frame of the pistol when the clamp is tightened against the base.
