I just bought a glock that came with an adjustable factory rear sight.  It is the one pictured in the manual.  The manual does not mention which screw adjusts elevation, and which adjusts windage.  Does anyone know?  It would save me time at the range.

Also how reliable is the glock adjustable site?  Do they hold up well in the field, Anybody have any experience with them?

Personally they suck! Get a good set of fixed NS and be done with it. The factory plastic adjustable/fixed sights can be easily damaged or knocked off POI if you drop/bump the weapon.

I have found them to be kind of crappy as well, although they're still sitting on my G34 and G35!!

They are not duarable, get chewed easy, and will move once adjusted. OK for range use, but nothing else.

I replaced my adjustable factory sights with fixed night sights.  I shoot better without factory glock sights.

i had some on mine and all it did was waste time.



everytime it would shift so adjustments were needed everytime i took it out. the slightest bumps throw it way off.
