Several months ago I ordered a couple of redfield palma rear sights from the CMP. Never really checked them out, just chucked the box onto the shelf.
Fast forward to the past weekend, took the kids out to shoot the 22 target rifles. What I pretty quickly figured out was that both had very loose windage knobs, to the point of being useless.
I did have a couple of backups, so they were able to shoot.
I've got an email off to the CMP, but this is all on me for not checking them out when I got them and addressing immediately. Not ragging those guys at all.
Here's the questions(s) if anyone can help:
There's a few very tiny allen head screws on the windage knob -- looks like 3 of them. It looks like I can work these to tighten it up a bit. If so, ideas on which ones? These are little-bittly damn things -- any idea what size allen wrench I need? Its for sure smaller than anything I have.
Does anyone have a link to a repair manual, parts-exploded diagram, etc. that may help?
Spent a bit searching and came up dry. Any help appreciated.
Thanks,
