I have a question about sight correction/measuring.
My new HK shoots the tiniest bit right consistently. No other pistol I have does this. It is not a lot but I am a perfectionist and don't feel it is me.
Trying to measure the distance from each side is difficult seeing as the sides are sloped. Is there a way to accurately measure this?
What I have done is removed the slide and used an engineers square guaranteed for accuracy on the underside of the slide then measure to the blade of the square from each side. It was off and I have adjusted it. The sight did move with little effort using a brass punch and a few VERY light taps.
I do not think I am allowed to disassemble and work on a firearm at my range so trial and adjust at the range is out.
What do you think about my approach? Is there another way?
