Shooting left - XDTalk Forums - Your HS2000/SA-XD Information Source!

Ok I have put about 400 rounds through my XD45 and it is shooting about 2" to the left. I don't have sand bags but I rested it on a bench to verify it wasn't me. The rear sight looks like it is shifted to the left about 1/64th to 1/32 (was that way new). Should I send it back to SA? Or just try to adjust it myself? BTW my groups are 1" at 30' (if I take my time). I also have a P95 there is on comparison of accuracy. The best I can get with the P95 at 30' is about 4".

well id advise , to take and tap yur sight over to the right some and try it , sometimes they can be a slight bit tight to tap over but they will go ,

Just a thought but before you go messing around with the sights I would find someone at the range who is a really good shot and let them put a few rounds through it but thats just me if you start messing around with them you might never get them right thats my 2 cents

Well I got finaly got a brass punch and moved my rear sight. What a pain. Tap a little no movement tap a little harder and it moves a lot. Took about 1/2 hour to get it to the right place. The only place that the P95 is better then the XD. How come on such a good gun they have such a **** sight?
