Hello,
I took my new mid-length carbine to the range yesterday to zero it and see what it could do. I was shooting with the Troy back up rear sight assembly that I purchased with the upper. I initially had trouble hitting paper at 25 yards and finally figured out the gun was shooting low and right. I made the necessary adjustments to get it centered, but I was surprised how much I had to adjust the rear sight to get on target. When I was done the windage adjustment on the Troy was almost all the way to the stop to the left.
This is the first AR I’ve owned without the old standard carry handle rear sight, so I wanted to ask if this is at all common when using a BUIS. I would be a bit concerned if I had to use the much windage correction with one of my standard AR’s. I’m not sure if this indicates there might be something wrong with my upper or not.
The Troy seems to be mounted securely, the upper and lower don’t have any play, the front sight base is tight, so I’m not sure what would cause this unless something is not aligned properly. I’d appreciate some opinions about this problem. I guess I’m curious if something like this merits a call to the customer service people.
Thanks,
J.E.N.
