IGHT OR LEFT WINDAGE ADJUSTMENTS

On most Model 9410 sights, the entire rear sight blade
holder is dove-tailed in the rear sight base. To adjust for
windage, gently move the rear sight blade to the right or
left by tapping at the dove-tail using a wood or fiber
dowel or hammer that will not mar the sight (Figure 19).
If you tap to the right your gun will shoot more to the
right. Moving the blade holder to the left is just as easily
done. Note how much you adjust the sight as you sight-in
your Model 9410. Remember:

• Move the rear sight to the RIGHT to shoot farther to

the RIGHT on the target.

• Move the rear sight to the LEFT to shoot farther to the

LEFT on the target.

Care should be taken not to mar the finish, damage
the attaching screws or bend sight components when
adjustments are made.

All sight adjustments are a matter of trial and error.
Remember, it is usually necessary to reset your sights
when you change type or even brand of ammunition.

Tap carefully. Do not

mar the barrel or sight.

Move the elevator

forward to shoot lower, rearward

to shoot higher.
