Abstract

A compact firearm of the bull pup configuration, capable of operating in the semi-automatic, burst, and full automatic modes with an improved structure for mounting a sight or sighting device using bosses on the top of the receiver, which are received in matching recesses on the bottom of the sight or sighting device, so that the sight or sighting device may be placed directly upon the receiver in its intended position without any need of sliding engagement. Once placed, the sight or sighting device is fixed to the receiver by means of rotatable fasteners captured on the sighting device.
