mas36 sight adjustment?

tahunua001 · July 21, 2013, 04:06 PM

how the heck do you do it? I finally moved my target close enough that it's on paper. at 25 yards it's 2 inches high and 2 inches right. I'm guessing the 2 high is just about right for a 300 yard battle zero but the 2 right is a serious problem. I'm guessing since the rear sight pinned into a recess in the receiver that there is no room for rear sight adjustment but from what I can tell the front sight is all one piece built into the forward stock band and can't see any method of adjustment there.

how in the heck can I get this thing shooting in line?

I seem to recall that windage is adjusted through swapping out the rear sight apertures. They made several. I'm not 100% sure on elevation adjustments though but I think that was also involving a rear sight aperture swap as well.

I could care less about elevation. I can deal with hold over, that's a common problem with most milsurps anyway however having to figure holdover on 2 axis becomes a lot more challenging.
