• Q: can the rear sight be adjusted for elevation ?

  • Asked 01/21/2022 07:01 by DOUG S

  A:

  Doug, no Sir. You can only shift for windage but not elevation. Since they are NOVAK Style sights I highly recommend the Dawson adjustable replacement rear sight : https://dawsonprecision.com/024-022/
