[QUOTE="SoonerP226, post: 2638802, member: 26737"] Years ago, my (now-)late grandfather told me about going through a Garand training session near the end of WWII. He and one other guy in the session had already fired their M1s in anger (Grandpa had his CIB at that point), so only the Army knows why they were there, but they were laughing at the instructor teaching the others how they were supposed to adjust the sights. He (Grandpa) said what you actually do in combat bore no resemblance to what the guy was teaching, but I don't recall what he said you should do. At the time, I'd never held a Garand, and it was too late to ask when I had one. :( [/QUOTE]
