Replacing the polymer rear sight:
WARNING: While you remove the rear sight, be sure to control the rear sight
plunger so that it does not fly out.
Field-strip the pistol as described in section 4.1. Push down the rear sight plunger
and remove the rear sight to the left. If the rear sight is moved to the right, the
plunger can become lodged inside the rear sight. To rectify this, remove the rear
sight windage screw. Note that the rear sight windage screw is reverse threaded.
Install in reverse order.
CAUTION: Slide on polymer rear sight from left to right when installing it.
Steel Rear Sight:
Windage adjustments are made by drifting the steel rear sight from side to side with
the rear sight adjustment tool. If shots group to the right, move the rear sight to the
left, if they group to the left, move the rear sight to the right.
The standard WALTHER Steel Rear Sight (5.3 Fig. 2) will
fit very tightly into the slot cut in the slide. The rear sight
adjustment tool is available as an accessory and highly
recommended when adjusting for windage.
Do not remove the sleeve below the steel rear sight.
ELEVATION
Elevation adjustments are made by using front sights of varying height.
Steel Front Sights of varying height are an accessory item.
If the shots group low, use a lower front sight. For high grouping, use a higher one.
The front sights are numbered. The higher the number, the higher the front sight.
Each stage results in a correction of the impact by about 5 cm (2”) over a
25 m (25 yards) distance from target.
To change the front sight, field-strip the pistol as described in section 4.1.
Polymer Front Sight
Unscrew the front sight screw with the 1.3 mm Allen wrench from
the bottom of the front sight. Push the front sight out of the slide.
Assembly is in reverse order. Screw in the front sight screw until it
is flush with the base of the front sight (5.3 Fig. 3).
Steel Front Sight
Remove the front sight screw using a screwdriver and press the
front sight upwards and out.
Assembly is in reverse order (5.3 Fig. 4). Remember to make sure
the screw and the thread inside the steel front sight are free of oil
or grease. The thread of the front sight screw should be secured
using an industrial adhesive (for example Loctite 648). To tighten
the front sight screw, apply a torque of 1 Nm (8.8 inch lbs).
