Glock Sight Issue

[MosinVirus]

I would return the sight to the center position and shoot to see if the adjustment was purposeful, or you could adjust the rear sight into center position, and use one of those laser cartridges to bore sight it. Place the slide on the table somewhere and then look down the sights. If the laser point meets your sight picture, the rear sight was probably reinserted incorrectly, or has slipped by itself. I have a glock where I can move the rear sight by hand, with a lot of force, but still. The way Glocks are made, I see no real way for it to be that much off.

Also, take a look at the right side on the rear sight and see how many dashes you have on the side. They represent the height of the rear sight, and how your point of aim will compare to point of impact. Long dash is point of aim, short dash(es) represent point of impact. Just so there is less surprise if you seem to hit high or low.
Edit: never mind, I see you have a single long dash, so it should hit where you aim.

That's pretty ironic actually.

Which site pusher did you get? I use brand specific pushers made by MGW for Glock and M&P and I can't imagine doing it any other way. I don't have to setup any slide adapters in a universal pusher. Just put it in and turn handle.

I long ago threw the box away and can't remember the name, but it was more than I care to admit cost wise.

Yes, ironic or irritating if you spent all that money and found the true least expensive universal sight pusher is better and quicker than the complex expensive universal sight pusher.

I do think your approach of brand specific is a step in the right direction, although with my punch and hammer method perfected now, I can't see a reason to buy one (I do use the brand specific punch when installing a Dawson FO sight ).

I have this sight tool for Glock. Works like a charm. Makes sight adjustments/changes an addictive chore.

If we only have one or two Glock's, the mallet/punch method (or bring it to LGS for them to do it) will be suffice.

Yet, if we have multiple Glock's (many of us do ) or with a group of friends who have Glock's, it is worth to pony-up $88 for this sight tool. It also came with a Glock front sight tool (also works as a Glock punch) in the package.

Have you shot it yet? Maybe they're correct for that particular gun (which would be the worst I've seen). I would shoot it first. If it's way off, make sure you have a punch and hammer to correct it in the field. Who cares if you scar it up, you're replacing them anyway pretty soon.

There is no way someone zero'd that gun at the factory.

I was wondering the same. I just got the MGW and it is quick and easy. I like being able to fine tune it by moving it just a little at a time.

I've always changed out my Glock sights right off the bat but interesting nonetheless.

Pretty much this.

I prefer the "lumi-lime" front sight myself on iDot Pros. Instead of just orange or green paint around the tritium, there is a luminescent material like you will find on the hour markers of GOOD dive watches.

It is NOT your typical glow-in-the-dark material.

Edit: Here are three Glocks with those sights next to a diving watch, which has a reputation for glowing like a torch. You can also see the tritium only rear sights. And the glow of the luminescent material totally overpowers the front tritium.

So the idot pros come just like that or did you modify them? Are the front sights considered "big" like the xs Bigdot sights? Also how do they compare to the xs big dot sights.. I recently learned of those and I m really interested in trying them out..

Speaking of night sights, if you want a 3 dot Tritium sight the Ameriglo Spartan sights are nice. They are similar to the Trijicon HDs.

These idot-pro's come like that. The front sight color is sometimes called Lumi-Lime. GL-301 on this page

They don't look as yellow as it does in this photo.

Glock Sight Issue

Well... I just might be a Glock "fan boy" now...

After tapping the rear sight into what looked like the center of the slide my journey with not only a Glock but also the 10mm cartridge began.

From the beginning the Glock felt like butter. From the trigger pull to reset, to inserting mags and racking the slide. It felt super smooth!

Glocks always felt boxy in my hand but I believe with the different backstraps of the Gen 4, one should be able to find a comfortable grip.

Accurate. The gun found inside the 8 ring with ease from both 15 and 25 yards including some close to intermediate double tap and mag exchange drills.

I also fed it a variety of ammo from 130 gr. hornandy jhp, 180 FMJ and jhc (Delton/Armscorp), buffalo bore 220 HC and 200 JHP. Mostly shot 180 gr. stuff but mixed in 5-10 rounds each of the primo. Went through 200 rounds without missing a beat.

This has become my favorite handgun!!!

Thanks again 2AZone!!
