Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2010088868A1] The invention relates to an apparatus for fastening an additional device (7), in particular a sighting mechanism, to a fastening rail (8) that is disposed on a weapon and that comprises a surface pointing away from the weapon and prismatic longitudinal edges having edge surfaces disposed at an angle to each other, in particular in the form of a Picatinny rail (8), having a main body (1) and at least two clamping jaws (19-20), at least one of which is disposed rigidly and at least one of which is disposed movably on the main body (1), wherein both the rigid and the movable clamping jaw (19-20) have a clamping region with two clamping surfaces, the angles of which to each other and the orientation of which substantially correspond to the arrangement of the edge surfaces of the fastening rail (8), so that, when tightening the two clamping jaws (19-20) with respect to each other, the edge regions of the fastening rail engage in a clamping manner in the clamping region of the clamping jaws (19-20) such that the bottom side of the main body (1) is disposed opposite of the surface of the fastening rail (8) at least at a small distance thereto.
