Abstract
A cross bow assembly that combines the use of a peep sight as a rear sight and the quick range finder as a front sight to quickly ascertain the appropriate target and distance without the aid of other devices. The device alleviates the need to use a separate range finder to find distance because it is incorporated into the front sight giving instant, accurate distances when sighting, saving time and improving the hunter's ability to make precise accurate shots quickly.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
Figure 1 is a side view of the crossbow assembly 2. The cross bow assembly 2 has a front sight 4 equipped with a ranger finder 6. An arrow channel 8 has a near end 10 and a distal end 12. The near end 10 has limb supports 14 that support limbs 16.
The cross bow assembly 2 has a stock 18, a hand grip 20 a trigger guard 22 to protect trigger 24.
There is a hand grip 20. There is a hand grip 20. The rear sight 28 is comprised of a sight arm support 30 a sight arm 32, an adjustable block 34, and a peep sight 36.
Also the rear sight 28 comprises a vertical peep slide frame 38, a vertical peep slide view hole 40 and a male dove tail 42.
Figure 2 is a full front view of the vertical peep sight frame 38 showing the vertical peep slide view hole 40 and the adjustment holes 36.
Figure 3 is an end view of vertical peep sight 38 showing a male dove tail 42.
Figure 4 is a front view of the peep sight frame 38 featuring adjustment holes and view hole 46.
Figure 5 is a front view of the mounting plate 48 featuring a threaded mounting hole 50 and windage calibration markings 52.
Figure 6 is an end view of the mounting plate 48 featuring a dove tail slot 54.
Figure 7 is a side view of the mounting plate 48 featuring a female dove tail slot 56 for the peep sight frame 38.
Figure 8 is a front view of the peep sight 58 featuring peep view slot hole 60.
Figure 9 is an end view of peepsight frame 38 with threaded mounting holes 62 and the female dove tail 64 for the vertical peep slide 38.
Figure 10 is a side view of peep sight frame 38 including elevation markings and the male dove tail 68 for the mounting plate 48.
Figure 11 is a side view of the front sight 4 including a fiber optic channel with tubing and the fiber optic channel in the range finder 6.
Figure 12 is one embodiment for the front sight 4 with a sight pin bar 74, fiber optic channels 76, fixture holes 78, and fiber optic wrap tabs.
Figure 13 is a side view of the front sight 4 featuring mounting holes 82 and fiber optic channels 84.
Figure 14 is a rear view of the range finder 6 of the cross bow assembly 2.
This view shows both the quick range back bar 86 and the quick range belly bar 88.
Also present is the fiber wrap tabs 80 and a threaded hole 90 for a light kit.
Figure 15 is a rear view of the range finder 6 without the back 86, and the belly 88, bar assembly. Again visible are the wrap tabs 80 and the fixture hole 90.
The crossbow assembly of this application combines the use of a rear peep sight with a front sight that incorporates a quick view range finder. The user can quickly raise the crossbow, look through the peep, and determine the distance of the target.
This will enable the user to have the knowledge that the target distance is precise and not just an estimate. The sight also has a windage indicator that will allow compensation for wind in the range that is the distance between the shooter and the target, giving even more accuracy than is obtained with standard sights. The sight is also equipped with the ability to be lighted using fiber optic technology.
The sights of this invention may be used on any weapon.
