Default new Sigs r-sight is slightly off center, Smith in Philly/Lower bucks to push it back?
Any one close by to East Falls with a sight pusher, or is this something I can buy and just do myself?

Forgive me for asking, but you didn't mention shooting it...

Does it need to be adjusted? Have you fired it? Is it "off"?

Only reason I ask is, because my G19(when new)was not hitting where it was supposed to. I mentioned it too a guy at the place I bought it, and when he tested it, it did the same for him. He adjusted the rear sight. It is now "off center".

Ya,,, I've shot it,,,, ~550 rounds. though it's doesn't shoot necessarily bad, imo it's off. I guess I could get a bore sight to see exactly, what's happening,, but I'm getting right shifted targets and the rear is visibly shifted the right.




are getting me these at 10 yards. everything is slightly off to the right which should coincide with a right shifter rear sight.

NO

YES

South Phila Archery is a distinct no, with Firing Line being little better. Take yourself to Locks.
