Hi folks,
does anyone else own or use one of these revolvers?
I have a question on the sights. I cant get my rear sight down low enough. Also the way it adjusts is a little strange.. no micrometer clicks, and two screws to make the adjustment?

I think the front sight can be adjusted, but not sure of how much there is in it.

cheers all,
Mike

G'day mate,
The front screw holds the spring in place, check it is tight, the middle screw is to lock the sight setting and the rear screw is for adjustment. If you cannot get it any lower, remove the screw from the right of the front sight block and change the front sight (where the heck to find new sight leaves for the WS I have no idea!) if you can find something to fit. Last resort is to change the velocity of the ammo you are using, Cheers.
