Sub 2000 front sight

[gunfando]

Alright I just picked up a glock 17 sub2k for some reason no matter which way I move the blade on front it shoots 6 inches to the left the groups were solid just offset to the left. As stated I moved the front blade sight both directions with no major changes. I was shooting from 25 yds, plan on getting a laser for the barrel and see what that says at home on the wall. Can't get back to the range until next weekend to try again.
Thanks for any help

Looking forward to your range reports. Had my eye on that exact model.

Also been looking for that model, and have had no luck.

Where did you get it, if you don't mind saying....

OK, I'm just going to throw this out there just in case. Most sights I've used you turn one screw to move the sight right or left. With the SUB2000 you have to loosen the screw on the side you want to move it to and tighten the side you're moving from. I was able to get mine zeroed.

There's no windage adjustment on the rear sight?

This is as basic a sight system as you'll ever see. The rear sight is a fixed peep hole. The front sight is a neon orange piece of plastic held in place by two screws. To adjust windage you do as I described. For elevation you loosen one screw, move the plastic up or down, then tighten the screw. This is not a sniper rifle. It is a close defense (25 yd-100yd) weapon system. It basically extends your pistol caliber cartridge range. If you are using one of the compatible pistol magazines then you can swap them between your pistol and the SUB2000. At 50 yds I was getting about a 3" group from rest.

I found it at a gunshow a couple of months ago it was on a guys personal table not on a dealers table. Yes you have to loosen one side and tighten the other side to move the sights and I did try both ways but when shooting at the target (which was a cardboard match style target) I aimed center and hit 4 to 6 inches off to the left If I'm looking at the target. So when I put the sight on the right edge of target it hit center target and hit consistently in a 4 inch area( 25yds standing ) may replace the blade sight but will have to order it since it looks like no one is gonna carry it. I think that a laser sight might help to see if the barrel is bent I don't know, might have to let a friend try it and see what he says.
Thanks

I guess I have to see one in person to understand how it works.

Sounds like one of these may be in order.

Looks nice but I'm wondering how it effects the folding of the rifle.

There's a u-tube video that shows a guy installing one. The stock clicks right into it just like the original. It may not help the problem, 6" @25 yards is a lot of adjustment out of a front sight.
