My PK380 shoots low

[thatgtrguy]

Like really low. About 4 inches. Been shot by multiple experienced shooters.

SHould I just live with it?

Should I file down the front sight?

Is that just the way modern sights are made? Just cover up what you want to hit instead of putting it at the top of the front side edge?

I would file it down because if you want to become proficient with it you have to shoot it. For me to shoot it i would have to like the way the sights worked. I wouldn't accept sub par accuracy because of sights.

What kind of hold are you currently using?

The three dot sights on the PK380 do shoot low if you use a traditional site picture. Line up the three dots and actually cover the target with the front site. Same as my Glock, Sig and M&P. Just concentrate on that front site and stroke the trigger. It will hit.

Look at Evan's illustration. The center mass site picture won't work. You will have to cover the target with the dot on the front site.

I hold center mass.

I hold center mass.

Then it sounds like VERT's suggestion would work for you. Try it out and report back on the results!
