Did any of you guys have to adjust the sights on your K31's? My M39 was sighted in perfectly, and I was hoping that a competent Swiss rifleman had sighted mine in nicely with some GP-11 ammo.

Anyone had problems with this? Gotten lucky?

mine was dead on the money I even shot a crow at about 100 yards with it the crow was in the corn field at the farm and it just exploded into feathers.

I had to adjust one of mine. It was knocked way off. I used a brass punsh because the adjustment tool is like $45. I could not see spending that to adjust a couple rifles one time.

Brass punch eh?..... I don't have one of those, where can I get one? Hardware store? Walmart? Does it have to be brass?

Yes it needs to be brass as you don't want to use a steel punch because a steel punch will be as hard or harder than the sight. Meaning that the puch can then marr the sight and put dents in it. A brass punch will not dent the sight.

Most gun shows have a guy that sells all kinds of small tools. Everything from bore brushes to hemostats and tweezers. These guys usually stock sets of brass punches or single punches for gun smithing.

Failing to find one of these guys, do the Brownell's thing as TheBigCA has advised.
