Greetings,
I recently purchased a G17 w/adjustable sights. It was made in 10/92. The sight has 2 screws, one on each side of the 'leaf?'. The 'leaf?' extends about an eight of an inch behind the slide. I have been informed, though you can tell by looking, that these sights break-off easily. I am going to replace them with Meprolight in the very near future.
Anyway, my question. Which, if either, of the screws control windage? Left or right looking down the sights. It is right on elevation wise, but hitting about 1½ to 2" left. I know that's good enough for defense, but I want it to hit where I aim it.
BTW, GT was not really any help. Nor a couple other boards I posted this on.
Guess I could just twist one and see what happens.
TIA,
Sgt.K
