[edit] Relation to Picatinny rail

Definition suggests it is a type of Picatinny rail, but later text says it is not the same ("similar ... but ... very different" contradicts itself). I suspect Picatinny and Weaver are two types of same thing, have same function, but differ in details (only slot spacing? how about cross-section shape?). What is the broader term? "Rail mount"? Maybe there should be an article for that, since Picatinny and Weaver articles have much duplication.--MajorHazard 07:23, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
