Hi-Point Carbine sighting-related question:

Just got a 4595TS. Really great gun, but when I got it out of the box, it shot 8" low at 25 yards. This is assuming that I hold the peep sight and consider the tip of the front sight post to be the target (center hold).

After adjusting the rear sight all the way up, so that it's raised as much as possible, the rifle shoots around 5" low instead.

Anybody else have this issue? Any suggestions? It's otherwise a very functional gun, and when I hold for the elevation with the maximally-raised sights, I can get very consistent groupings. But this definitely isn't the way I want to continue.

Nope, might do so when they're open again! I just thought other /k/ folks might have experience with this sorta thing.

I'm aware of their stellar customer service though.

pls help

Can the front sight be adjusted?
If not and if the rear sight is maxed out and its still very low, it sounds like something isnt right. Definitely contact cs

isnt this the fucking opposite of how it should work? if you raise it up poi should go down. if you want point of impact to go up and the front is fixed you lower the rear.

>The sights on the Hi-Point carbine are very easy to use, and consists of a rear aperture and a protected front post. Both front and rear are adjustable for elevation, with a very wide range of adjustment, and the rear is adjustable for windage correction.

Try Google, newfag

Try reading the manual, newfag

Turns out, reading the manual, that the front sight is adjustable for *coarse* elevation. Skimmed that small detail over. This explains why maximally adjusting the rear sight only resulted in a 2" vertical change in POI.

Thanks!
