So I finally got a chance to try out my m44 today. I mainly wanted to just run some rounds through it, to get the feel of it, but since I had my target stand for sighting in some other stuff anyway, I decided to see if I could get some groups with it. I set my target at around 50-75' just to see where it hit. To my disappointment though it was shooting really low on my target stand. I was hitting the bottom of the cardboard, but nowhere near the paper target (standard NRA pistol target), which was taped to the center of the cardboard. So my question is... what range is the minimum for the sights on this rifle? I had the rear sight slid all the way back. I assume if I had slid it forward it was just shoot lower. I found that I had to aim way high just to be on paper. Can the front sight post adjust down? I will have to try it at longer ranges next time I'm there but I only had access to shorter range today since I was mostly pistol shooting and dialing in some optics. Kind of bummed me out because I was easily grouping inside a 1" circle offhand with my AK without any effort at the same range. I only put about 10 rounds of non corrosive brass through the m44 and loved shooting it, just wish I could hit better than minute of man with it!
