2.3 MOUNTING CONFIGURATIONS / PROCEDURES -
Continued
1. Loosen the mounting screw on the rail grabber bracket
until the jaws have sufficient space to fit over the weapon
rail.
2. Hold the MIPIM with the laser apertures facing in the
direction of the muzzle of the weapon.
3. Position the MIPIM on the rail ensuring the recoil lug is
seated in the desired recoil groove of the rail.
4. While pushing down and forward on the MIPIM, turn the
mounting screw clockwise as tightly as fingers allow.
Take note of the screw slot in the mounting screw and
using an appropriate tool (e.g., screwdriver, multipurpose
tool, etc.), turn the mounting screw an additional 3/4 turn.
2.4 BORESIGHT ADJUSTERS
The MIPIM aim lasers are co-aligned. Therefore, a single
set of adjusters moves both aiming beams. Boresighting /
zeroing can be accomplished using either the Visible or IR
Aim Laser. Table 2-1 indicates the direction of adjuster
rotation and resultant shot group movement when the MIPIM
is top mounted. Tables 2-2 and 2-3 indicate the direction of
adjuster rotation and resultant shot group movement when
the MIPIM is side mounted (left / right).
NOTE
To minimize laser travel as a result of weapon
shock, it is good practice to place a positive load
on the adjusters by ending all boresight adjuster
rotations with an approximate 1/2 turn in a CCW
direction.
