I recently had my Sig P6 refinished by a well-known, reputable shop. Upon its return I took it to the range, to find that it's shooting 8-10" low and a few inches left from its POA/POI before the refinish.
The shop confirmed that the sights were removed and replaced so that the refinish job could be done properly; I expected this and have no problem with it. In fact I'm not even worried about the windage, I can whack the rear sight to bring that back into line.
However, the elevation is a problem. I suppose it's possible that the pistol wound up with a front sight from a different P6 (I know that the shop does a lot of business) but I'm loathe to make an accusation that essentially has no way of being proven.
Anyway, has anyone had a similar issue, ever? I'm really stumped by this. All shooting was done with WWB or similar 115-gr round nose ammo so I don't think that's it, though I'm hoping to get back to the range again soon to rule that out.
Any advice appreciated.
