1. In combination, a mounting apparatus for mounting a tactical device and a firearm, said firearm having a mounting rail portion and a stock portion, said combination comprising: (a) a longitudinally extending mounting rail affixed to the mounting rail portion of said firearm, said mounting rail having a body portion having an upper surface, a lower surface and a plurality of spaced apart ridges, each said ridge having a longitudinal bore, said body portion being provided with a plurality of longitudinally spaced apart grooves extending in a transverse direction;(b) first and second electrical connectors extending through said longitudinal bores provided in said spaced apart ridges, said electrical connectors being accessible via selected ones of said longitudinally spaced apart grooves formed in said body portion and being so constructed and arranged as to be electrically interconnected with the tactical device;(c) a battery carried by said stock portion of said firearm, said first and second electrical connectors being connected to said battery; and(d) a battery charger operably associated with said battery for charging said battery, said battery charger comprising: (i) a plug-in type power input connector mounted in the stock portion of the firearm;(ii) an alternating-to-direct current converter assembly connected to said plug-in type power input connector for converting alternating current to direct current, said converter assembly including a plug that can be connected to an alternating current outlet;(iii) an electric circuit carried by said stock for operably interconnecting said power input connector with said battery. 2. The apparatus as defined in claim 1 in which said first electrical connector comprises a hot conductor and in which said second electrical connector comprises a neutral conductor. 3. The apparatus as defined in claim 1 in which said electrical connectors comprise electrically conductive wires. 4. In combination, a mounting apparatus for mounting a tactical device and a firearm, said firearm having a mounting rail portion and a stock portion, said combination comprising: (a) a longitudinally extending mounting rail affixed to the mounting rail portion of said firearm, said mounting rail having a body portion having an upper surface, a lower surface and a plurality of spaced apart ridges, each said ridge having a pair of transversely spaced apart longitudinal bores, said body portion being provided with a plurality of longitudinally spaced apart grooves extending in a transverse direction;(b) first and second electrical connectors extending through said longitudinal bores provided in said spaced apart ridges, said electrical connectors being accessible via selected ones of said longitudinally spaced apart grooves formed in said body portion and being constructed and arranged for electrical interconnection with the tactical device;(c) a battery carried by said stock portion of said firearm, said first and second electrical connectors being connected to said battery; and(d) a battery charger operably associated with said battery for charging said battery, said battery charger comprising: (i) a plug-in type power input connector mounted in the stock portion of the firearm;(ii) an alternating-to-direct current converter assembly connected to said plug-in type power input connector for converting alternating current to direct current, said converter assembly including a plug that can be connected to an alternating current outlet;(iii) an electric circuit carried by said stock for operably interconnecting said power input connector with said battery;(e) a tactical accessory interconnected with said longitudinally extending mounting rail, said tactical accessory comprising: (i) a body portion;(ii) an electrically powered component housed within said tactical accessory body portion; and(iii) a connector sub-assembly connected to said tactical accessory body portion for interconnecting said electrically powered component with said first and second electrical connectors of said mounting rail, said connector sub-assembly comprising: a. a connector housing; andb. a connector clip sub-assembly connected to said housing, said connector clip sub-assembly including a twist-on connector removably receivable within said pair of transversely spaced apart, longitudinally extending grooves of said body portion of said longitudinally extending mounting rail to make electrical contact therewith.
