After disassembly, look down the barrel and check to be sure there are no obstructions in the chamber or bore. If an obstruction in the barrel is detected, a qualified gunsmith MUST remove the obstruction and inspect the pistol to ensure it is safe before it can be fired. If no obstruction is found, reassemble the pistol by following the procedures given in the "REASSEMBLY" section of this manual (Pages 28-30). SIGHT ADJUSTMENT AND REPLACEMENT The sights of the Pico are designed to be easily adjusted or replaced using a 1.3 mm hex wrench. To adjust the rear sight loosen the set screw, adjust the location of the sight in the same direction that you want to move the point of impact and retighten the set screw. To replace the sights, loosen the set screws on the front and rear sights and slide them out of the slide and install the new sights as indicated by the maker of the new sights. It is recommended to use a low strength thread locker such as Loctite® 222 (purple). 31
