the accessory when mounting it to your pistol.
20. SIGHTING
The sights are factory set for a combat hold (point of aim equals point of
impact) at 20 yards. This may vary slightly with different types of ammunition.
Do not try to adjust the sights yourself. Send the pistol to the FN Product
Service Center, your departmental armorer or a qualified gunsmith for this
adjustment.
