apache12 Report post Posted January 28, 2018 Didnt know where else to post this question I have a sig p220 extreme elite in .45. Factory night sights It groups well. Im sure better if I was better. Great trigger Anyway my point of impact is consistently low. My sight pic is placing front sight dot in line with rear sight dots. Place front sight on the target. With that line up Im considerably low. I read that Sig uses combat sights and I should completely cover the target which is unusual for me. Im sure I could change my sight line up to change point of impact by raising the front dot above the two rear but I feel like that gives an inconsistent sight picture Anyone have any tips for me Or can a smith make an adjustment Or do I just suck? Wait dont answer that The group below was shot at 15 yards. I cant seem to adjust the pic to be up and down. Group is low. Not right 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
antlers Report post Posted January 28, 2018 Cover the taget and change your sight pictue or put a different sight on it. I can do it but I'm in Payson I used to work on those for my department 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

firstcoueswas80 Report post Posted January 28, 2018 Grouping low is almost always slamming the trigger anticipating recoil. When I worked at Sportsman's, I tried to explain this to a gentleman who is complaining about his hand gun saying he needed hotter loads because everything was hitting low. He seemed offended! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
452b264 Report post Posted January 28, 2018 If you are taking your time for each shot and it still shoots low you can put a smaller (shorter) front sight on it, this will move your poi up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
apache12 Report post Posted January 29, 2018 I could be slamming trigger. I’m far from an experienced pistol shooter. But I don’t have the same point of impact with other pistols I shoot in similar size and caliber. I feel really comfortable shooting this pistol. Might look into shorter front post Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
azslim Report post Posted January 29, 2018 have you sat and rested the butt on something solid and slow fired a magazine to see where the impact is at 10 yds? That is what I do when I get a new pistol, figure out how it shoots from the bench before I start offhanding groups 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sjvcon Report post Posted March 2, 2018 Cover and shoot. Most of my Semi Autos are this way. Exception being 1911. Sigs don't cover as much as HKs...at least for me. I am not a trigger slammer at all, and it is this way both freehand and rest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Irish Rob Report post Posted March 2, 2018 Sig makes a range of replacement factory front sight sizes/heights. Order direct from their website. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
n2horns Report post Posted March 2, 2018 It is like a girlfriend/wife, if its not working right, get rid of it and get a newer, younger model. That will help with getting your shot straight on the X. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
