I have a BWMA 22 mag w/adjustable sights. It shoots 3" high @ 10 yds w 40 grains; either GD or Maxi Mags. I have receieved a second set of rear sights for it, but it is the same. Any suggestions?

I have an older BW 22 mag and had some problems with accuracy because of the kick these minis have. I had Thingmiester make me some grips that fit my hand and accuracy is no longer a problem have read comments from others who got things grips and they have found the same to be true and my sights are not adjustable.

Just for giggles, try and aim down the top of the frame, and ignore the sights. I realize this will be very difficult, if possible, and see how close you are at the same distance.

Always shoot with both eyes open .

I have a Mini-master that shot high and was going to put non-adjustable sights on it, but as long as I had a back up I decided to drill into the top of the front sight and tap threads in it and installed a shotgun brass bead. Filed it to match the sight, sort of, and works great. Really gave that mini some range. There is a picture on the forum, but don't know how to find it.
The gun wasn't much of a shooter before I did that, and re crowned it. Would now make good a survival gun, if that was my life style.

Here is a picture, sort of. I shoot better than I do pictures.  Be a simple job for a gun smith, although there's not much room on the top of that sight.

Can't sight down the top rail the rear sight blocks the view.

Pretty sad if the sights were that far off.

Get a set of non adjustable sights from NAA. The gun came both ways.

Or buy another one. This time with fixed sights. (that is what I did)

Please tell me where to find the sights on the NAA site.
I can't find them.

Try some "Hornady Critical Defense 45 GR FTX"
They shoot lower (closer to aiming point) in my pug.  Everything else I have tried hits 3-4" higher.

I didn't find them on the site. I called customer service...

I like the fixed sights. Now I just need a little more practice...

That would ruin a perp's day, additional practice or not.
