Are you actually having problems shooting low with the gun?
Or just speculating on how you think the front sight "should" look?
J-frames have always shot pretty much point of aim for me with 158 grain ammo.
The front sight has to be higher then the front on any handgun, but is more pronounced on lighter, or shorter guns like the 637.
This is due to recoil being greater on the small light guns.
If the front sight were not higher then the rear, the gun would already have recoiled off target before the bullet gets out of the barrel.
Your choice of ammo will also affect where the gun shoots.
Lighter bullets will generally shoot much lower then heavy bullets, again due to differences in recoil.
