Unfortunaltely, the N-9 was not adjustable. From USAAF T.O. No. 1F-51D-1 dated 15 July 1952, Pg. 61

Quote:FIRING GUNS WITH N-9 SIGHT INSTALLED.
Since the N-9 sight is a noncomputing reflex type with .
a fixed reticle, no control is provided other than the
rheostat for reticle brilliance
. The principle of operation
is the apparent projection of the reticle image in
space, which is similar to having the reticle image
superimposed on the target. When the target is framed
by the reticle, the guns may be fired by depressing the
trigger on the control grip.

Which raises the issue of the historical accuracy of the 200m reticle. Catahoulak9 do you have a reference?
