Mr. Wisner,

I have a couple of rifles with PME's ".458 African" rear sights. How do you adjust those sights for windage?

Thanks,

Terry

If you look at the rear sight base just below the blade. You will see a dovetailed section. This section is 1 3/4" long can be tapped slightly side to side the help adjust the windage.

However, hopefully you have a ramp front sight with the American 3/8" dovetail sight blade. This front sight blade is moved side to side in the ramp to adjust most of your windage.

Last resort would be to do some fileing on the vee in the rear blade.
