Need advice adjusting the rear sight on my S2
« on: April 30, 2019, 02:27:52 PM »
I recently bought an S2, and this is my first handgun with an adjustable sight. I was shooting from 7 yards, and I was hitting 1-2" low.
Do I adjust the rear sight up, or down, to compensate? I didn't have anything flat with me to adjust the sight, so I couldn't experiment.

Move the REAR sight in the direction you want your bullet impact to move.

Before you start adjusting sights based on impact point at 7 yards, I would suggest you try some groups at about 20 yards.

Projectile weight/muzzle velocity can also make a difference in impact point, too.

I do think the sights maybe adjust at 25 yards, that would affect POI at 7 yards

remember the old acronym FORS = front opposite, rear same - it works
