I have a Sig P239 in 40 S&W and it has always shot a little low when you use a traditional sight picture where you line up the front sight even with the rear sight bar and place the intended target on top of that. My girlfriend has a 239 in 9mm and hers shoots dead on with that sight window but she has factory night sights. I found this annoying as I have had to either change the way I line up the sights on this gun when compared to all my others or I have to cover the target with the front sight. It groups like a sig should and I have no complaints about that but I wanted to raise the point of impact so I can use the sight picture I have used on every gun I have owned since I was 8.

Well with farther research this is what I found

If you read down at the bottom there are different sights with different heights. Looking close I found that my GF 9mm is a 8 and 8 front rear and mine is a 6 and 8. That would be 2 inches low at 25yrds and thats about right. Now anyone got any idea how I can get a new front or rear sight? :)
 
are you SURE it's not just you? Have somebody else shoot it and see if they get the same result. If they do, a new front sight is in order. If not, your trigger pull needs more work.
