The reflective surface is moveably mounted directly behind the aiming device, where a user's eye would normally be positioned. In this configuration, a user, positioned at a point not directly behind the aiming device or system being used, may move the mirror to an angle appropriate to see where the system is being aimed, as indicated, on the surface of the aiming device.
