5 ADJUSTING THE PISTOL TO ITS USER

WARNING: MAKE SURE THE HANDGUN IS UNLOADED BEFORE

ADJUSTING.

5.1 Grip

If the grip of the pistol does not fit your hand

comfortably, the backstrap can be replaced with

another size to better suit your hand.

To do so, push the pin in the bottom part of the

backstrap out using a punch (Full Size: 4mm /

Compact: 3 mm), exchange the backstrap for one

with a better fit and replace the pin (5.1 Fig. 1).

The P99 Full Size pistol backstraps are offered in

sizes Small, Medium, and Large. The P99 Compact

comes with backstraps in sizes Small and Large.

5.2 Lanyard Loop

A lanyard loop for attachment of a lanyard is found at the lower end of the

backstrap (P99 Full Size only). The pin used to fasten the backstrap forms, together

with a recess in the backstrap, an eyelet for attachment of a lanyard.

To attach a lanyard, push the pin in the bottom part of the backstrap out using a

.15” (4 mm) punch, insert the lanyard, then replace the pin.

5.3 Sights

The front and rear sight are replaceable. The point of impact is adjustable for

windage and elevation. You can choose from polymer sights and steel sights and

different contrast markings.

WINDAGE

Polymer Rear Sight:

If shots group to the right, turn the rear sight windage screw

clockwise, if they group to the left, turn the windage screw counter

clockwise.

Adjustment by one click moves the impact point approximately

.7” (2 cm) at a distance of 25 yards (25 m) (5.3 Fig. 1).

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.
