I think the known issues are taken care of. If you have any issues or know of another member who is having issues, PM daytime dave. As we head towards the holidays, hunt with your Henry.

It's really cool that you have your Dad's service revolvers. What are they? And guessing they're in .38 Special caliber?Coach wrote:Mostly pistols but I do have a couple revolverPT7 wrote:Pistol or revolver?
Both my revolvers were my Dads service guns when he was a Deaputy Sheriff
BTW, when I answered your question on the xxxhorn sights, I knew that you were really after the larger harvest!! Easy to get that.

Adjusting sights - this is something simple I saw a long time ago.
Just remember this word FORS
It means "Front opposite" "Rear same"
For the rear sight - if the bullet impact needs to be higher - raise the rear sight (rear same)
or for the front sight - if the bullet impact needs to be higher - lower the front sight (front opposite)
If the bullet impact needs moved to the right - move rear sight to the right or move the front sight to the left.
