Ok, here's the deal.
Para P12-45. I've shot several IDPA matches with it. It seemed to be a little off. Well, my son and I went to shoot our qualifier for Texas CHL today. This is the first time I've shot paper for the purpose of shot placement vs. sights.
The P12 seemed to be shooting consistantly left. Level but left. (My son was shooting the P12) So the instructor after the shoot was completed shot a couple of times and it was left. So I tried a couple of shots and it was left about 5-6 inches at 15 yards.
So, about the question. It's and older model with a crimped or pressed front sight and a dove-tail rear sight. Is this within the parameters to move the rear sight to the right to bring it in alignment? Or, is something wrong with the gun?
There seems to be quit a bit of play in the barrel-bushing-slide fit, when compared to my Springfield (PX9505L) although the Springfield has a bushingless barrel. And when looking at the muzzle of the gun the play seems to be held left when at rest. Meaning I can push it to the right but not to the left. I haven't measured it but is seems to be about .004"
Any advise will be welcome. If more info is needed then ask away.
