[ARCHIVED THREAD] - question about reducing front sight height

Posted: 7/10/2017 3:00:01 PM EDT

Hey guys, I just installed suppressor sights on one of my pistols (g19) and it shot a few inches low when I sighted it in at 7 yards yesterday. How much should I take off to get it zeroed? Will something like .010" or .015" be too much to start with?

Thanks in advance.

First do not sight in at 7m realistically you should sight in at 15m and adjust accordingly based on distance to target.

I like my pistols to hit right at the tip of the front sight at 25 yards.

Agreed. Usually if I am zeroed at 15m it translates to what you describe at 25m. Zeroing where OP is zeroing is not optimal.
