Not sure how to “sight in” my glock

I guess what I’m looking for out of this is, has anyone else had iron sights on a custom Glock be off? How did you fix it? I don’t know of a place to get different height sights for glocks like 1911s and I really don’t want to use an adjustable sight or a red dot.

Never had Glock sights off from factory. But also never modified a Glock. I just take them out of the box and they are right on and go bang.

And yours look normal. At least no big anomalies!

Someone above asked about the barrel slide combo maybe being off… unlikely but possible.

Do a flinch check. Have a buddy hand you the pistol with a round randomly in the chamber or empty. If you re pressing the gun down hard in anticipation of recoil it will be very obvious. It is not uncommon for newer shooters to develop a flinch , especially with large ported guns.

Also get a big piece of paper or cardboard. Randomly shooting at trash on the ground is not going to give you the kind of site feedback that you need to diagnose the problem. Ideal would be a large piece of cardboard from an appliance box.

That or the broadside of a barn.

Cheers, Sirhr

Edit: PS Move way in from 25 yards. For diagnosing that big an anomaly, get into 5 yards. That way you can really figure out where things are going. At 15 feet, if the sights are messed up, it will still be hitting several inches low. Big cardboard (and masking tape to tape over holes) will be your friend! Cheers!

Damn.. what the hell’s going on with mk22’s? And the AXSR lost the mil contract to this? post# 3281 https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/threads/the-new-barrett-mrad-thread.6279141/page-66
And I was about to pull the trigger on a MRAD ELR end of this year. I guess I’ll wait out for a AX50.

It's an extra feature.

Third stage trigger.

Now that'll be an extra 10k per gun. -Barrett

Between the Barrett and the P320 the DoD is 0-2... In what world is a peanut butter MRAD better than an AXSR?

Felony trespassing? Is that what folks get locked up for now?

Who does the Capitol building belong to? It should be the US citizens because it was paid for by tax dollars. Walking through the halls should in no way be trespassing. The offices should be different but not a felony. Stealing from those offices should be held to the same standards as shop lifting.
Is that like we all own the public land…yet, the Secretary of The Interior is the only person in America who can excercise the fee simple bundle of rights? You vill eat ze bugs. You will own nothing and be happy.

Ukraine war Bullshit.

Yep, No one has ever saved money by paying a mortgage. The reason all banks & mortgage company's always have slick adds telling you how its better to pay for something that own it outright. They have the none thinking in the palm of their hands with the debt leash ready to apply pressure anytime they want.
Dude, it's all about that credit rating!! They have been indoctrinating that forever. Kinda funny that if you are debt free and a vast amount of cash available that your credit rating is in the shitter. In debt so deep that it consumes 90% of your income and your credit rating is good.
The "how much can you afford to pay monthly" is the societal way.
