I tried sighting in my Garand yesterday at 100 yards. A friend spotted for me and I'm going through ammo...
"Bring it up...closer. You're low again... closer. Good. Uh oh, low again."
Jeez. Then, after going through maybe 4 or 5 clips, I notice that the elevation knob is clicking itself down under the force of the recoil!!!
These are "normal" Garand sights, not lock bar sights. The screw is tight. What can I do to fix this?
This is only the elevation knob doing this, windage is fine.
Also, any links to how to zero an M1 would be nice. I found a few sights with it, but most rehashed the same stuff and were confusing. I have 25 and 100 yard ranges at my disposal, 200 maybe.
