the one on the side adjusted the left and right while the two bottom ones control elevation. when I first got mine, one of the bottom screws was not flush so I began to tighten them both. you kinda gotta play around with it because sometimes tightening the bottom will offset the laser to one side. I lined mine up using the iron sights at about 10 yds. i would think the easiest way to sight it is use a bore laser.

Are you sure it has 3 adjustment screws?As I sit here looking at mine it only has 2.

this product is knock off piece of junk. send it back and get a lasermax or crimson trace

it was just trial and error. i used a bore laser and then adjusted this until it was in the same spot.

That's probably a misnomer if you read it somewhere. There is an adjustment screw for windage & another for elevation.The sight slides on the pistol rail and has 2 clamping screws, so you can position it where you want it on the rails - this might have been the third adjustment! A tip from the owner of the local gun range - rather than set the elevation to a particular distance, adjust the sight parallel to the bore. Then, knowing the vertical distance from bore to sisht, whatever your range, the sight is always that distance below your target point.

You only have to adjust two of the screws, the frontmost underneath for elevation and the side screw for windage. Be careful, once you get the screw to the proper depth very small (1/4 turn or so) adjustments will move the laser quite a bit, you will know when you are there. I have shot my .40 cal with no problems with this laser, it stays where I set it.

I just screwed the front most screw on the bottom until flush "it was sticking out about a 1/16 of an inch" then I adjusted the elevation screw "back bottom" , then the center sight screw "side".This worked for me so far. that front screw holds the laser in place i think when i turned that screw in it moved both adjustments out of wack at the same time, but i couldent just leave it sticking out there to get snagged on somthing.

planetmike, if you have a drill motor; electric, or battery operated, you can carefully seat the boresite into the chuck and tighten it down just enough so that it will not come out. make sure that the drill motor is secured to the bench-table etc. so that it doesn't move or slide around. if this is done properly your boresite will be centered to itself. turn the site on and slowly allow the drill to spin while projecting the lasr beam onto a wall, screen, etc. and check to see if the laser stays on the same spot. if it does then it's centered. if it doesn't then you'll have to start to adjust the axis of the laser with the small adjustment slots on the lasers side. i have never know of these to be off to where one has to make these adjustments. if you do start to adjust the axis it will take time and patience! good luck. john

When I got mine I wondered the same thing. At the rear of the laser is where the switch is. You can push it on and off from either side of the gun. It blends well with the laser and gun.

I have put about a thousand rounds through and the laser is still close to where I originally set it. Anything with a screw is going to need some kind of adjustment over time. Just the nature of the beast.

It works fine in that reguard. Its bright and beautiful. I am just unable to move the beam where it needs to be. there is no consistent adjustability to the laser beam. Thanks

You must calibrate this laser sight,the easiest way to do this is to obtain a bore sight and turn both on and make the lights into one.this will get you very close ,by the way this sight is very easy to calibrate,good luck and hope this helps

It is a little difficult to adjust. I've had this problem with other brands and models. The two screws only control (or hold) 2 sides of each axis of the laser diode. The other 2 sides are controlled by springs pressing against the diode. You have to adjust each screw at the same time to get it on target. I adjusted mine to where it is dead on. So it can be done with a little time and patience. It took me 10 minutes at the most to zero mine in. And as every other model, after so many shots fired ( 50+ ) it needs to be readjusted. You can improve this by using Loc-Tite on the threads to prevent the screws from backing out ( or loosening). Using this product will make it a little more difficult to turn the adjustment tool. This only means the product is doing its job. A little extra: using a bore sight laser ( one that is the same shape has the ammo you are using and will chamber like a live round) will help a lot to sight in your new laser sight. The bore laser is zeroed in at the factory with special machines that ensure its dead center with the barrel and won't offset.

i found out that only the red lasers activate the laser lyte targets, my sirt 110 with a green and red laser has to have the lasers swapped. the schematics in the description are wrong. we are still working on this. unfortunately i did not compare the two sirt pistols with each other and i do not know whether the red/red vs the red/green lasers are the only differece between the 2 sirts.

2 small allen head screws in the front side of the lazer, one adjust it up and down the other left and right

this one does not come with a laser guide. an aftermarket, universal laser guide might be available.

All together there are 5 screws that make this sight. The large one on the side hold the sight to the weapon of your choice. Then there is one om the top of the sight (its a lot smaller then the mounting screw) this adjusts the sight up and down. The screw on the side, same size as the top screw, adjust the sight left and right. Then there are two screws side by side on the back. These lock the sight in, so it does not move when you have the light zero'd.

The adjusting screw is slotted. You will need a something flat like a flat-blade screwdriver or multi-tool. I just tried a dime and it didn't work. It clicks easy. I really like the sights.

I think the batteries are fine. I had to start with the base. I had to make sure that clamp/lever was secure and it was the 3 time. Then i had to rotate the laser until it was somewhat seated in the mount. So the final mounting place was a little off center of the windage adjustment like around a 1 o clock position but still accessible. Good luck

Mine had no adjustment screws, but fortunately, the laser was properly aligned.

Look on the side of the laser. There is a small vertical handle with lines on it. Push it in slightly and turn it counter-clockwise. Needle nose pliers helps.

I think you have it on backwards. The laser projects onto a reflector in the middle. You can see the small dot on the side if you look at it at the right angle. Just make sure the the big dial is to the front.

There is a screw on the back just behind the light. Turn it one way and it aims higher and the other way aims it lower. I had to take them out and put them back on a few times to get everything figured out. Hope that helps!
