SIGHTS
CAUTION: The sights are not zeroed at the factory. All sights should be “adjusted and sighted in” immediately in
order to shoot accurately. A standard sighting in procedure is set forth in the article by Duff and Miller enclosed
with your rifle.
Note “V” notch at rear edge of hooded aperture. When notch is turned from the “down” position to the up position,
your zero will move up 1/2 minute. When the notch is turned to the “down” position, your zero will move down.
Most shooters sight in with the notch down. The M1A standard rear sight does not have a hooded aperture
. MATCH SIGHT FINE ADJUSTMENT
