Model 952 sight adjustment

[kellswater]

I picked up a minty 952 in original Performance Center case, but unfortunately without the user manual. Would like to confirm that rear sight adjustment matches the model 41 and 945:
Elevation - CCW = "Up" (raising the impact point)
Windage - CW = "Right" (moves impact point to the right)

Thanks!

YUP! take the sight to the hole.

The manual I got with my 952-1 is a standard third gen manual, and that would indicate your assumptions are correct. The supplemental instructions sheet for the 952 don’t mention the sights at all.

Gotta say that I find this funny because unlike the other Performance Center guns of all style, calibers and flavors, the 952 does not use a 3rd Gen frame.

Some would think that it is splitting hairs. In my opinion, no Performance Center semiautomatic pistols are 3rd Gens, but at least they share the same frame layout. The 952 doesn't. It also does not have a decocker like a 3rd Gen, the trigger is two-way adjustable unlike a 3rd Gen and it doesn't use the delrin one-piece grip like a 3rd Gen.

But I often laugh at S&W sillyness. Not sure what reason there was for a 3rd Gen manual in with a 952.

The adjustments should be the same but be aware some sights are Wilson and some are LPA. The problem I have with the LPA is that they are held in place with two set Allen screws and they tend to get loose. They use a very small Allen wrench which you may not have.

Many thanks!

Thank you to everyone for confirmations. Hoping to hit the range on Tuesday and shoot from rest to get sights adjusted to suit.
