WHEN FIRING IS COMPLETED OR WHEN
SHOOTING IS NO LONGER IMMINENT, IMME-
DIATELY RETURN THE MANUAL HAMMER
STOP TO THE “ON” (SAFE) POSITION AND
RETURN THE HAMMER TO THE REBOUND

S IGHT A DJUSTMENTS
All Model 94 rifles are fitted with open sights. The style
and adjustment system may vary between models and
grades.
The proper procedure is to shoot a group with the sights
set as they come from the factory (intermediate position
on both elevation and windage), and then make incre-
mental adjustments to move the sight blade and blade
holder to position the group on your target. The proce-
dures below are for the type of open sights found on cur-
rent Model 94 rifles.
BEFORE MAKING ANY SIGHT ADJUSTMENTS,
MAKE SURE YOUR RIFLE IS FULLY
UNLOADED AND THE MUZZLE IS POINTED IN
A SAFE DIRECTION. PLACE THE HAMMER IN
THE REBOUND POSITION AND THE MANUAL
HAMMER STOP INTO THE “ON” POSITION.
U P OR DOWN ELEVATION ADJUSTMENTS —

up the rear notch blade holder on your rifle’s rear sight
with your fingers and move the notched elevator either
forward or backward (see Figure 16). To raise point of
impact, use your fingers to lift up on the blade and slide
