SIGHT ADJUSTMENT<br />
The folding leaf rear sight is adjustable for elevation. The slide must be moved<br />
one graduation to change the point of impact by approximately one inch at 25<br />
yards. Use a small screwdriver with a blade tip that exactly fits the screw-head.<br />
Loosen the screws only slightly so the slide doesn’t move too freely. Move the<br />
slide in the direction you want the point of impact of the bullet to move. When<br />
the slide is positioned at the desired height, carefully tighten both screws.<br />
Lateral (windage) adjustment is made by ‘drifting’ the sight base in its slot. Place<br />
a short brass rod against the sight base (and only the base) and tap the sight in<br />
the direction you wish to move the point of bullet impact. Before moving the<br />
sight, pencil mark an index line on the sight base and rib so that sight movement<br />
can be detected.<br />
SUGGESTED SIGHT PICTURE<br />
Top of front sight even with top of<br />
rear sight slide. Front sight<br />
centered in notch of rear sight<br />
slide. Target bull’s-eye centered on<br />
top of front sight.<br />
Note that the rear sight blade can<br />
be reversed to give a square notch<br />
rear sight picture.<br />
