Took the seldom shot Iver Johnson 1980 ish M-1 Carbine to Creasap today. It was fun and fustrating. Could not get it sighted in. I was hoping to use it for CMP at TCSC next Sunday.
Is my method correct? If you shoot low, slide the peep (back sight) sight down ramp. Shoot high, slide the peep sight up ramp. I used the rear ramp detent posistions for repeatability.
At 100 yards, finally setteled for hitting the center ring (5"?)by aiming two ring diameters low.
The sight picture has the front sight left and right standards level with the rear sight sholders. The top of the front site blade is center horizontal and vertical. Target sits on top of center front sight blade.
So you can shoot 4-5 ring at 100 yards by aiming low, How would you move the rear sight?
The sight has detents marked 1, 2, 2.5 and 3. I assume these are yards?
Is their some trick I'm missing?
