>>>Opening the sight notch in the hammer is a good way to bring the POI down. slight windage adjustment can also be made by filing one side or the other depending on which way the POI needs to go. I've also seen where a taller front sight post has been added to by silver soldering an extension to it.<<<
Indeed I did fashion a new front sight post for the gun out of brass stock but by golly it looks just terrible (it turned out well but the tall, skinny pointed post looks hokey). If I'm stuck with this gun what I'll probably do is look into building more of a blade type front sight for it (like the Walker etc.) as they look a bit better if they need to be higher but honestly, since it's new I'll probably ship it off to Traditions and see what they do about it. Can't hurt!
Thanks,
