1-2 months ago I bought a charter arms undercover 2 inch 38 special. it always shot low about 6 inches at 10 yards. I had used 130 gr bullets and then 148 wc and 158 swc. all low. the sight appears like an integral part of the barrel. will charter arms do anything about it? I haven't called charter arms yet. I like shooting steel at 25 yards and it's difficult to consistently figure out the holdover using the normal sight picture. I used the formula for sight adjustment and based on the guesstimate(hard to align the caliper)and painted the sight at that level(almost just the lower third of the sight only). seems to work at 25 yards well enough if I trust the paint and not unconsciously revert to a normal sight picture. problem is the "excess sight height" covers the target a bit. assuming charter arms will not do anything about it(it was meant for close quarters) and assuming you want to keep the gun for now, would you file down the sight(at least it will be accurate- and it was). how bad would it affect the trade in value?
it was supposed to have been for my wife but predictably I like shooting it more.
