These appear to have such an adjustment facility, one is a 38 spcl replica, the other is a 6.5 Creedmore but with the laser instead of a bullet. The screwdriver or whatever is used to adjust them is smaller than the needle for a flu shot. The access hole might be 15 thou in diameter. It's there, 4 of them at 90 degree spacing, but veddy veddy small. Smaller than an 0-80 screw by quite a bit. Tedious would be an understatement, Andy. I'll get my solder crack finder lens out and see what I can see in the holes tomorrow. Thanks Andy. -- Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
