I have a few K frames and a M28. I rarely feel the need to change the sights but when I do, for the life of me, I can never remember how the rotation of the screwdriver relates to sight movement.

I know to move the rear sight in the direction I want POI to move. But every time I have to figure out all over again if clockwise raises or lowers, if clockwise moves left or right.

Anyone have any "mental trick" to help remember this? You know, like "righty tighty, lefty loosey."

How about a picture?

Modern S&W's are easy - turn the windage screw right to move the POI right, turn the elevation screw in to lower the POI.

Perfect -- thanks!
