The center part, with the notch, should slide up and down. To fine-adjust the sight in addition to the coarser steps on the elevator. The screw secures it.

It is shooting about 1.5" high at 25 yards and I do have the rear sight as low as I can get in on the ramp--the sight is touching the barrel...
Maybe I will mess with the screw on the sight and see if I can fine tune it a bit. But, fine turning 1.5" at 25 yards might be out of the range of the screw adjustment...
We shall see...
Thanks again...BCB
Yeah, 1.5" is probably too much. You can always file the notch in the rear sight deeper, or get a taller front sight. If you don't want to alter the original rear sight by filing, maybe make a replacement for the center piece and keep filing the notch until it hits where you want.
That lets the sight blade slide up and down.
I figured "fine tuning" meant less than 1.5" at 25 yards...
I guess I will just hold low and let 'er go. At least I will be able to see the entire target...
I would rather keep it a stocker and not change or file sights. But, if you notice in my original post, someone had "45 Long Colt" engraved in the barrel in front of the reciever. I don't think that was done at the factory? It is a nice job though...
Thanks...BCB
