“Gunsmith” Strikes Again
I saw this on a forum, were a member was asking about the importance of centering a set of sights. The member posted the picture of the front sight installed by a "Gunsmith". The sights are indeed off center, but
that’s not the worst part….This gunsmith deformed the sides of the sight…WTF! Supposedly the sights were installed using a sight pusher so it’s weird that the tabs would be as deformed as they are. Please please take my advice and if you are getting sights installed ask the gunsmith if they warranty their work. Any self respecting professional gunsmith would have stopped before the damage occurred and or replaced the sight before the customer ever saw it. Luckily it only happens every once in a while, but I have had to make that phone call. Letting them know I damaged the sight, but then letting them know not to worry a new one was already on the way, and that they would have nothing but my best work. I have never had anyone say that that was not acceptable. This unfortunately this is unacceptable and was up to the customer to buy new sights and then pay for another sight install.
