Rotate the gun 90 degrees to the left or right, then aim higher.

So to adjust the up and down, I have to physically lift or lower including cutting the rear sight if no space or needed?

Or flinch less.

Okay so I have to physically take off the material in the front if that is the correct way of doing it?

I'd swap the sights before breaking out a file.

Not following you. At all.

Just off a 12hr. Perhaps other members can help you, if the picture wasn't of help...

Well, yeah. But a file at the range might be easier to start than having to push a sight out and a new one back in?

Thank you. That's the part I didnt know so I'mm do that.
I really like this practice gun. The recoil is twice than my other gun. (it feels like someone shooting the gun off hand) So after a few rounds then I switch to the Glock, its like paper!

Thank you for the input. In this firearm, I'm thoroughly okay with filing it on the fly in the range. This is just my practice gun. Nothing special. I just wanna keep this gun simple, no red dots or anything.

Thank you so much!

Need more information. Do you mean that shooting from sandbags at 25 yards, your group is consistently low? To correct this, take a small amount of material off the top of the front sight. Your Dagger's iron sights are designed to co-witness with a RDS so there's plenty to work with. Go slowly, even 0.01" makes a difference. Or install a RDS and adjust it.

You may want to try some other ammo brands too. Ya' never know? It's possible it be an ammo issue.

I wanna learn how to do this...

Is it possible to shoot a gun from someone's hand? - Rumble

Still at the breaking point, I'll start making the final and cutting adjustments after 500 rounds.
