Manual

If the M. P. I. is to the right of the point sight-
ed, the screw on the left of the sight is loosened
and the screw on the right is screwed up, thus
moving the sight laterally along its dovetail from
right to left.
Tighten the screw on the left.
When the correction has been made, and before
shooting, tighten both screws.
If the M. P. I. is to the left of the point sighted,
the sight must be moved from left to right.
A movement of 1 division (or click) is equal to
a
variation in M. P. I. (to right or left) of
1
cm at
100 metres (approx. 0.39” at 109 yds).
10. STOPPAGES AND IMMEDIATE ACTION
The FN Light Automatic Rifle is unlikely to
be affected by variations in normal ammunition.
Obviously, this means good quality ammunition
because a bad cartridge will give rise to stoppages,
whatever the weapon that fires it.
Stoppages are generally of two
types:-
1. Those caused by fouling, due to the user’s
negligence, or ignorance of his rifle, or lack of
lubrication (modern powders of good quality
cause very little fouling).
2. Those caused by some mechanical deficiency
(less frequent).
A mechanical stoppage, other than that caused
by an empty magazine, can usually be remedied
by taking immediate action, without stopping to
investigate its cause.
