I’ve been diagnosing shooting left lately. Now I have been a little rusty, BUT I can usually hold my sight picture and get constant shots where I want them to go. I swapped the factory sights on my 43x for Ameriglos. It seems the front sight is ever so slightly crooked. Y’all think I should reinstall it?

To me, take the dot end clockwise a hair.

Glock front sights pretty much lock in place as long as they’re installed correctly. I have 7 and installed sights on all of them…Glock sight tool and loc-tite 242. The rear is easily adjustable left/right and unless the front appears visually effed, I’d tap the rear the direction I want my shots to go.

But there’s a tiny bit of wiggle room in the keyed slot.

It doesn’t appear parallel to the slide to me by looking at the photo.

Fixed

There is quite a bit of wiggle room with the sight hole. I held pressure with my thumb to keep it straight. Now to wait for the loctite to set.

Ah ha… clicking on the picture thingie helps 🙄. Didn’t see that initially. Mine all were press or slip fit as I recall. 40 years inspecting disected fly poop, but retired now so I can be forgiven for missing the “thingie” 🕶
