I recently bought a Model1 Kit and I absolutely love it. I have put quite a few rounds through my rifle, but the brief giddy period has passed and I would actually like to hit my target. I have a flattop receiver and I bought a removable CH to give me a basic iron sight setup. The PROBLEM is that I can't seem to crank the rear sight down enough to zero at 50 yards. Its completely bottomed out and my groups are way high. I am getting better at compensating, but its a reall pain in the ___. Is there something I am missing? Can I raise my front sight? I plan to add an aimpoint or somehting when I can scrape together some cash, but until then, I need to figure this out. Thanks for the help. |
Can you raise it? You mean you haven't been? The rear sight is ONLY raised/lowered to adjust for range. The front sight is adjusted to ZERO the rifle. First Read this (you should have a copy already): M16 Operators Manual (the -10) It will cover the basics on adjusting your sights for zeroing (just don't follow their zeroing instructions). Now read this: Improved Battle Sight Zero Come back if you have any questions. |
