Unhappy CLOSE GONE iron sights , way high
CLOSED GONE Got some new iron flip up sights . Using my in barrel mount laser the sights are way high . A good 3 to 4 in. Front sight is all the way down . Can this front sight be filed down to match the laser dot at 50 yrds. ? or what ?

Thanks , Arley

Is the rear peep sight flipped back (battlesight zero) or flipped forward (long range)? Just a thought
