Hawkstp 0 Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 I have the AK sight adjustment tool, and was able to get the elevation dialed in. But it is shooting just a hair left. While I was at the range I could not get the windage adjustment to move at all, no matter how hard I tried to crank on the sight adjustment tool. Any suggestions for loosening it up, to be able to get a little adjustment? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BuzzKillin 21 Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Are you using one of these? AK Adjustment tool. It should be able to move your iron L/R. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

As I mentioned in my post, I have the AK sight adjustment tool, but it seems to be stuck. Could not get it to budge. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
loki0629 55 Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Hawk, Make sure that you have the hole centered over the drum. It could be hitting it and preventing movement. You could also just tap it with a small hammer covered with cloth or leather. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think I will try the small hammer, and see if it is just stuck with paint. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
imarangemaster 315 Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 SOme of the cheap sight adjustment tools have a hole that is too small. First try a c clamp with a small 1/4 drive socket that will fit over it on the on the base side to get it to move. Also a little liquid wrench oil. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DLT 1,646 Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Try moving it in the opposite direction first if it won't give the way you want it too. They are very tight to prevent loss of zero through repeated firing. I had a hard time moving the ones on my S308, but they moved eventually. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
