i have a springfield TRP with low profile adjustable rear sights...i have 2 problems:
1) the 2 pins in the sight (see picture) keep slowly working their way out durring shooting..at first it was like 200 rounds and they came out a little...now 50 rounds and they are like 1/4 the way out...any of you guys have sights like these? do you have the same problem? are thier any quick fixes?
2) im a little upset with springfield...when i first got the gun mags were getting stuck in the gun and the mag release was very sticky...i took it apart and found a glop of the finish that had got into the parts..i cleaned it and now its fine...i just think for a 1400 dollar gun they should have better quality control...anyway the other thing that made it past quality controll is the rear sight is way off center in the cutout notch (see picture)...now i have to crank the sight way to the right to sight it in...it looks crooked as hell and again im anal about my 1400 doller gun...my question is can i carfully tap over the whole sight asembly to center it...or is there a pin or a screw that holds it in place the i need to disasemble the sight to get to?
I know i could send it back to springfield to have them fix the sight for free but i dont want to have to mess with shipping and all that bs...
