Abstract

A camera sighting device, configured for securing about a firearm, the sighting device housed in a housing, with a smart phone or smart device mounting platform rotatably coupled thereon, with an additional rear viewing camera, integral or attachable to an armature. This said armature, additionally passes through an open portion of a clamping device, that is attachable to a threaded base portion, of the back side of said smart device mounting platform, and is both height and angularly adjustable. This said sighting device, provides the target image that is either received from other target viewing devices mounted on the firearm, or provides its own target image, to the smart device, where this said target image is viewable by the user, from any position that the user could position himself in relation to the firearm, by means of the said rotatable smartphone or smart device mounting platform. The image of the area behind the user would also be provided at the same time, by means of the said height and angularly adjustable rear viewing camera, that would either display its image simultaneously in a window of, or on, a split screen on the smart device's viewing screen, or would provide the image behind the user simultaneously, in its own viewing screen.
