SIGHT ADJUSTMENTS AND ZEROING (Cont’)
FRONT SIGHT
To adjust elevation: depress the front sight detent with the point of a bullet and rotate the front sight post clock-
wise or counterclockwise. To move the MPI up, rotate the front sight post clockwise as indicated by the arrow.
* One notch of rotation moves the MPI 3.5 cm or 0.35 mil at 100 m for the Rifle and LSW.
* One notch of rotation moves the MPI 4.7 cm or 0.47 mil at 100 m for the Carbine and SFW.
ZEROING
The iron sights for the rifle are normally zeroed at 300 m. The carbine iron sights are zeroed at 250 m. If zeroing is
fired at 100 m the group MPI will be 12.5 cm above the point of aim for the rifle, and 8.9 cm above for the carbine.
NOTE
Adjustments to the front and rear sights may be made using a bullet or the Frontsight Adjusting Tool contained in
the Section Cleaning Kit.
