Anyone have experience with the rear sights of an Aeron B98? Just picked one off EBay and don’t know which knob does what or which way moves the pellet on the target!

Here's what my manual says: "The width of the front sight (103) can be changed by unscrewing the screw (104) and rotating the sight 120 by degrees. The windage adjustment of the rear sight is done knob (77a). Turning it clockwise moves the rear sight blade to the left. The rear sight elevation adjustment is done by knob (77b). Turning it clockwise moves the rear sight blade up."

Screw 77a is on the left side of the sight, so looking at the gun from its LEFT side, turn it clockwise to move the group left.

Screw 77b is on the right side of the sight, so looking at the gun from its RIGHT side, turn it clockwise to move the group up.

My sight is plainly marked on its top. See attached picture.

Thank You! The top of my sights are unmarked.
