CLEANING PROCEDURES
Your Buck Mark pistol will function better and more reliably over a

Clean your Buck Mark pistol after every day of shooting, and more
often if it becomes excessively dirty. A minimum cleaning includes

the blade up to 90 degrees, to the desired width (Figure 10). 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

counterclockwise to raise the blade and lower the point of impact.
Removing the Sight Hoods: The front hood can be removed by
sliding it forward off the sight base. The rear hood is removed by
inserting your index finger inside the hood and pulling up and
outward on one side of the hood until it comes off. Replace the sight
