SIGHT ADJUSTMENT
TARGET 5.5 MODELS
When performing all sight adjustment procedures,
MAKE SURE YOUR
PISTOL IS FULLY UNLOADED.
Remove the magazine, and check the
chamber for cartridges. Always point the muzzle in a safe direction
during actual adjustments.
The Target 5.5 also has a fully adjustable Browning Pro Target rear
sight with an adjustable front post sight. Both front and rear sights are
hooded. To adjust the sights it is not necessary to remove the front
and rear sight hoods.
FRONT SIGHT ADJUSTMENTS: The front blade can be adjusted for
elevation and for width to accommodate more precise sight settings
and different stances.
BLADE WIDTH: To increase or decrease the width of the blade, loosen
the front set screw found on the front of the top sight rib (above the
muzzle) with the 1/16" Allen wrench (supplied). Insert the slotted front
sight adjusting wrench (supplied) into the access hole at the top of the
sight hood and rotate the blade up to 90 degrees, to the desired width
(Figure 11). Retighten the set screw with the Allen wrench.
BLADE ELEVATION: Vertical point
of impact can be changed by
lowering or raising the front blade.
Loosen the set screw as explained
above. Again, using the slotted
adjusting wrench, turn the blade
clockwise to lower the blade and
RAISE the point of impact. Turn
the blade counterclockwise to
raise the blade and LOWER the
point of impact.
