Sights |
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
| The rear sight has a dial selector that
allows for the choice of apertures for 200, 300 and 400 meters
as well as an open “V” notch for 100m. Interestingly, the
choice of which distance aperture to use does not change the
diameter of the hole, rather it moves the hole either up or down
according to distance. Starting with the sight at the “V” notch
(100m) position (Sight 1), turning the sight counterclockwise one
notch goes to the 200m aperture (Sight 2), turn it again counterclockwise
and you go to the 300m aperture . If you turn the sight back to
the “V” notch and then turn it clockwise, you get to the 400m
apertures (Sight 3). |
|
 |
| The front sight is a pointed post, much like
the original AR-15 sights. The interesting thing about the front
sight is that it is eccentric in nature, that is, as you screw
it up or down it also moves left or right. The post is off set
to one side of the thread of the screw. A special tool is needed
(Sight 5)
to move the sight which can be gotten from TAPCO.COM. Thus, this
rifle can be adjusted coarsely for elevation using the rear
sight and then “fine tuned” for elevation and windage using the
more adjustable front sight. |
