I will have to let others do the metal build up stuff, way beyond my capabilites.

I found my original posting back in 2001 when I test fired GTs Navy Shooter pictured above. It did indeed shoot high when I had it, 1 foot high at 200 yards. It reads as follows:

Well good and bad on this one. The good is I fired a box of ammo through it, 115gr PMC FMJ, no misfeeds, no misfires, no misejects. Accurate Luger but front and rear sights are a mismatch in height . Forget about doing much but shooting OVER the target with this one. At 25 meters it strikes about 9-10" high! At 200 meters it was grouping around 8" and striking about 1' High with the 100 meter setting. Wonder if one of the old Marble Beads sight would be high enough. Lowering the rear sight would work, but WHO in their right mind would muck up a real Navy two Position sight. Perhaps MARTZ could add a higher block under the front sight. That might work! Anyway, this Luger was the nicest looking pistol we shot and I did manage to hit a bowling pin at 100 meters with the second shot at it! This gun has potentional but really need the sights worked on!

PS GT Navy Bottoms are the BOMB!!! Of Course, all his work is PHenomenol!
