o adjust for elevation, rotate the screw in
the rear sight clockwise or counter-
clockwise to lower or raise the sight,

slide by tapping it with a wooden- or
plastic-headed hammer or similar
implement. Move the rear sight in the
direction you want the shot to move on the
target. After the rear sight is adjusted,
tighten the rear-sight lock screw. Both
front and rear sights are provided with
white-dot inserts for rapid target acquisition
and easy alignment of the sights to obtain a
correct sight picture.

Never place or store any firearm in
such a manner that it may be
dislodged. Firearms should always be
stored securely and unloaded, away
from children and careless or
unauthorized adults. Use the locking
device originally supplied with this
firearm for storage.
The use of a locking device or safety
lock is only one aspect of responsible
firearms storage. For increased safety,
firearms should be stored unloaded and
locked in a location that is both
separate from their ammunition and
inaccessible to children and any other
unauthorized person.
