    Yes SIG has had quality control issues. The 320 not being drop safe being the newest one. My friend had one. It was a sweet shooter but he replaced it with a CZ.

    Have you checked the crown of the barrel to make sure it's not damaged?

    It seems like every part of this gun is in perfect shape, so I'm not really sure whats causing it to shoot so far to the left.

    Gotcha. Yea if its shooting consistently left and not all over the place, id just adjust the sight until you've got it dialed in and be done with it. That or sell it and try again

    Dropping my pistol and it going off.. That's the least of my concerns. Good luck with your garbage. Accuracy is more important to me. Yeah it took a team of dumbass Glock engineers to figure out that. Glock was just jealous that Sig got the military sidearm contract.

    I don't know what level of shooter you are but I'd put my G26 up against most Sig's, including yours. I wouldn't say it would outshoot the competition ones though. I drive tacks with mine, and I'd take the Glock reliability over anything else for my carry pistol. I'm hitting 3 inch steel at 25 plus yards with great consistency, with a subcompact pistol. This G17 is just a weird situation. The Glock engineers are not idiots, the Glock is just built for a different type of shooter than the Sig's are. Don't bash something just because you don't like it.

    What is your POA and POI?

    Is this Gen 3 or 4?

    It's a gen 3. If I put it dead center on a 12 inch plate, it'll hit about 1 inch high and 6 inches off the plate to the left. I'm fine with an inch high though because I can do a 6 o'clock hold.

    I would say you don’t know how to shoot but since you have other glocks it’s likely the gun.

    My glocks all shoot poa poi with the rear sight dead center on the slide

    OP didn't say who did the install but interesting question you present. Just stated that it was the only modification done to the pistol.

    Regardless all OP has to do is shift the rear sight to adjust POA. I posted my stock glock 17L as an example of how far rear sights can be adjusted and still be in tolerance. Also notice the long slides have adjustable sights. Ill have to see what the rear sights on my 35 look like.

    I have the exact same Glock, well Gen 4. The first thing I did was get rid of those sites. I don't really like it and its hard to like it up. I went with an idot sight. Not to say that this is you or anything, But what i would try doing is getting a couple blank plastic rounds. Have someone randomly place them in your mag. When you shoot, you will know when that dummy goes off what you are doing. But I really don't like the site itself. Its hard to aim where you want because they don't really go together well. I love the idot. I ended up going with a Tricon red dot.

    it's probably you. I tend to have issues with pulling shots left with my 19s. Not as much with my 17.22.21sf. If I really focus on shooting my 19s the problems go away, but if I haven't shot it for a while it can be pretty bad. I don't have that issue with my sigs or m&ps. Have an someone else that can shoot well shoot it. Then see where your at.
