Happy to see this forum exists.

I am having a serious but curious issue with my sub compact chambered in 9mm. The weapon seems to shoot low regardless of ammo weight/quality/+p. The weapon breaks my line of sight because I have to aim high; while I understand that this weapon is designed for emergencies and close quarters, my Glock 33 (sub compact 357 Sig) and S&W Sigma 9mm appear to be more accurate. Range is between and 10 and 20 yards. Again, this could be the shooter, but its not my first time handling a sub.

The weapon feels great and it took about 100 rounds to get comfortable with the weapon. I had one "normal" jam within 100 rounds; probably because of my grip and quality of the ammo. I am a firm believer in 300 rounds + before I can trust the weapon.

Also, I called Sig and they asked that I return to weapon, free of charge, so they can check it out. Now that's what I call customer service. It's nice to deal with a company that cares about the product and the customer! For all they know, I could be first time shooter...no questions asked, they gave me an RMA and said I can expect a response around 2 to 3 weeks.

Am I crazy shooting low? Am I the only one out there?

I noticed the the same thing and performed a similiar, but less scientific test. Sine I am far from a gunsmith, I did not mention this concern but I do agree about the tilt. Hopefully Sig will fix it because I like the feel of the weapon. Thanks for the response.

The weapon is shipping to Sig in the morning.

Thanks...

don't know if it helps or not but the first few times i went to the range i was shooting a little low until i realized i was actually pointing it slightly downward, once i fixed the way i was holding the pistol I've been dead on with every shot.

I agree, sounds like anticipation.

Lightfighter6 and Tank 44:

I shoot my other SIGs and Glocks perfectly fine. Two guys named Ayoob and Farnam can certify this. They know me a lot better than you do.

But my 9mm compact P250 shoots low. A lot of other guys are reporting this. SIG evidently sent out a bunch with the wrong sights. I will get shorter sights put on. That will fix the problem.

But, anticipation, no.

I shot my 250SC for the first time today. With cheap Monarch 115 FMJ it was regulated perfectly (both side to side and up and down). After putting 50 flawless rounds through it I changed to 147 gr Speer GDHP to check them for function. I am thinking abou this as a carry load. Surprisingly the heavier bullet hit in exactly the same place -- I had expected the heavier bullet to hit higher. I was shooting at combat range (5-7 meters). I can only speculate that with the short barrel recoil radius has less influence on POA than with a longer barrel.

I am very happy with this pistol!

I just bought the 9mm Compact and shot it for the first time today. I am a seasoned shooter and am usually dead-on with my many Glocks, Sig p2022 and Sig P230 shooting groups 1"-1.5" at 30'. However, like many here I experienced the same problem shooting about 1"-2" low today with the P250 (depending on the distance.)

So I too feel that it must be related to the sights and/or barrel tilt. My front sight is also a #6. Does anyone know if this is the correct front sight or should it be a different number? Might I also say that my buddy, whom is also a good shooter, tried the pistol and also shot about 2" low.

I don't believe it is ammo related. Were you using a combat or target sight picture? The P250 is designed for a combat picture, which is the reason many people shoot low. That may not be your problem, but just throwing it out there.

There are several different size sights available, but I'm talking about the sight alignment picture, not the type of target. There are multiple types of sight pictures, and the P250 uses a combat sight picture, where the front sight covers the target rather than a picture where the target is "sitting on" the front sight. If you swap out the sight and it turns out that the problem is the sight picture, you will find that the weapon is accurate at one distance, but off at all others.

Check out this post to see what I'm talking about. The P250 uses picture #3.

Oh, darn. I will have to go our and shoot it again, just to be sure. I would agree, #3 is the closest to true. I am used to (shown above) using sight picture #2. I actually dont recall if 3 would work, but again, will be shooting again soon just to see.

Thanks!
