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.
if it groups good (?) then it's as simple as drifting the back sight left or right, and getting a different height front sight (and possibly a diff height back sight depending on how much it's off). as mentioned above, hit dawsonprecision.com or call them and they'll let you know what you need in your situation. if it's not grouping good, then i'd fix that before messing with the sights (shooter error, crap ammo, bad or mismatched components).

Where are you? I do need legit training. Not just me shooting random shit in the backyard

Have you ever received any firearm training before? Regarding the fundamentals of marksmanship, stance, grip, trigger maniplation, "work space", etc?? How long have you owned firearms or been shooting for?

Your grip and pistol fit-to-hand is one of the important parts to have squared away first as a new pistol shooter, IMO. FWIW, ive been a competitive pistol shooter from 12 y/o to current 37. Also did 13 years of federal L.E and tactical operations experience. I can get in the stack and really fuck up the Tangos in the shoothouse. Primary and secondary weapon systems, alike. Would do a zoom chat for nothing but your time if you really wanted some help or initial guidance on marksmanship. 😁 (y)

I’ve been around guns since I was probably 8. I’m currently 19 and the only “training” I’ve had is I watch Lucas from Trex arms before he left and I took a conceal carry class and currently have my concealed carry carry permit. I regularly shoot rifles and I have proof I can kinda shoot a rifle from a bench but that’s about where my skill ends.

Yahtzee! This is most likely the real answer. Listen up, sport. This place has plenty of old guys(we are most assuredly not grown up *or* adults) that have all of the experience and answers you need. You will need to develop thicker skin to get beyond our feral nature but you will get your answers. Buckle up and listen. You’ll also learn some new shit-talk to impress your friends

OP be weary of this guy he’s acting like he wants to mentor you but he’s really just extremely gay. Prison rules apply if he puts a snickers on your pillow don’t touch it.
