Kel Tec P155 P-11 Gun Sights User Manual

1. Product Overview

The Kel Tec P155 P-11 Gun Sights are designed to allow for precise adjustment of a firearm's point of impact. This set includes a variety of front and rear sights, enabling users to fine-tune their aiming for optimal accuracy. The package contains 3 rear sights and 2 front sights, each of different heights, providing versatility for various shooting preferences and conditions.

2. Setup and Installation

Proper installation of gun sights is crucial for safety and accuracy. If you are not experienced with firearm modifications, it is highly recommended to seek assistance from a qualified gunsmith.

2.1 Safety Precautions

• Always ensure the firearm is unloaded and cleared before beginning any work.
• Remove the magazine and visually inspect the chamber to confirm it is empty.
• Point the firearm in a safe direction at all times.

2.2 Tools Required

• Sight pusher tool (recommended for precise and safe installation)
• Non-marring hammer and brass punches (alternative to sight pusher, use with caution)
• Fine-grit sandpaper or file (may be needed for minor fitting)
• Bench vise with non-marring jaws
• Cleaning solvent and soft cloth

2.3 Installation Steps

1. Prepare the Firearm: Secure the firearm in a bench vise, ensuring it is stable and protected from scratches.
2. Remove Existing Sights (if applicable): Carefully drift out the old sights using a sight pusher or non-marring punch and hammer. Apply steady pressure or gentle taps.
3. Prepare New Sights: Inspect the dovetail of the new sights. Some fitting may be required for a snug fit. If the sight is too tight, carefully remove a small amount of material from the sight's dovetail base using fine-grit sandpaper or a file. Test fit frequently to avoid removing too much material. The goal is a firm, friction fit.
4. Install Front Sight: Gently tap or press the new front sight into the dovetail slot from left to right (or right to left, depending on the firearm's design) until it is centered.
5. Install Rear Sight: Select the desired rear sight height. Gently tap or press the new rear sight into its dovetail slot until it is centered.
6. Final Check: Ensure both front and rear sights are securely seated and properly aligned.

This image displays the complete set of Kel Tec P155 P-11 Gun Sights. It includes three distinct rear sights, each with two white dots, and two front sights, each with a single white dot. These components are designed to allow for precise adjustment of a firearm's point of impact.

3. Operating and Adjustment

Once installed, the sights can be adjusted to achieve the desired point of impact.

3.1 Elevation Adjustment

Elevation (vertical) adjustment is primarily achieved by selecting different height front or rear sights. The set includes multiple sights to allow for this. Generally, a taller front sight or a shorter rear sight will lower the point of impact, while a shorter front sight or a taller rear sight will raise it.

3.2 Windage Adjustment

Windage (horizontal) adjustment is performed by drifting the rear sight left or right within its dovetail. To move the point of impact to the right, move the rear sight to the right. To move the point of impact to the left, move the rear sight to the left. Use a sight pusher or non-marring punch for small, incremental adjustments.

Note: Always make small adjustments and test fire to verify changes. Record your adjustments for future reference.

4. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and performance of your gun sights.

• Cleaning: Periodically clean the sights with a soft cloth and a mild gun cleaning solvent to remove dirt, carbon, and debris. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the sight material or finish.
• Inspection: Regularly inspect the sights for any signs of looseness, damage, or wear. Ensure they remain securely seated in their dovetails.
• Storage: Store your firearm and sights in a clean, dry environment to prevent corrosion and damage.

5. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Kel Tec P155 P-11 Gun Sights, consider the following:

• Sights are Loose: If sights become loose after installation, they may not have been fitted tightly enough. Re-evaluate the dovetail fit and consider professional installation if you are unable to achieve a secure fit.
• Point of Impact is Off: Review the adjustment section (Section 3). Ensure you are moving the rear sight in the correct direction for windage and selecting appropriate sight heights for elevation. Consistent shooting technique is also vital for accurate assessment.
• Sights Will Not Fit: If the sights are too tight to install, very carefully remove minimal material from the sight's dovetail base. If too loose, the sights may require staking or professional attention. Do not force sights into place, as this can damage the firearm or the sights.

For persistent issues, consult a qualified gunsmith or contact Kel Tec customer support.
