skillful application of sight black would be a more efficient fix. My old Italian gun shot fine for me. It was about a foot high and 6" to the right but it did it every time. (Some sight filing would have helped a bunch) We shot a bunny and a squirrel when we were kids. My gun got stolen when I was 17. My friend still has his gun and kit. Good memories.

supposed to look like it is a hundred years old but I wasn't sure what they call it.
