Rossi sight problem!!! Please help

I was given a rossi m92 44 mag for Christmas a few weeks ago and love the way the gun shoots, but I have a problem that I really am unsure on how to address. About every 2-3 shots and occasionally ever shot, the little bar that raises or lowers the sight (cant think of the correct name right now) moves do the recoil, it's getting pretty frustrating having to slide the little bar to adjust the sight after every shot. Just wondering if anybody else has had this problem or knows how to correct it. I did notice that when I took the little adjustment bar out (to remove excess oil that I thought might be causing the issue) there were 2 little threaded holes directly below the sight, not sure what they are for and no little screws came in the box. Thanks for any help yall can give me .

First off, it sounds like your sight is just bent up a tad causing the stepped slider to be lose. Take the stepped slider out and bend the sight down a bit until when you replace the slider, it fits in a bit tighter. Problem solved.

Second, the 2 threaded holes under your rear sight are there for mounting a weaver rail for a scope should you ever decide upon a scout scope mount you're barrel is already d&t for it.

Actually, I don't believe a Weaver rail will fit correctly - but the Scout scope mount that DOES fit is available from Rossi/Taurus Customer Service (Florida).
