A while ago (last Summer) my son and I discovered that the sights on this old gun were off.
I, finally, got around today to taking it to the range and seeing if I could get things adjusted. It was shooting high, which was easy enough to fix.
The problem is windage. It's shooting to the right - and I could not for the life of me drift the front sight to bring that group to the left. I happened to have some Kroil with me and I put some on the sight. But I definitely was not in a position to let it soak for an extended period of time.
I'm figuring I need to get some Kroil on there and let it sit for a day or two - and then give it a try. Is that most make-sense next plan of attack? Any other ideas on ways to get this thing to move?
Thanks.
