My Glock 19 Gen4 fires low and left by about 6" and 6" at 15 yards. After doing some research, I thought it might be my grip, sight alignment, etc. However, using a 100-100 grip, it is still firing left and low. And a laser shows it left and low when inserted. I adjusted my sights for windage, but it is still firing left and low by 3 and 3. Is this normal for a Glock? My 1911 and BBTechsBB6 hit where I aim with no need for adjustments. And I use the same grip. Or should I return it?

You are silly. You just don't shoot your G19 very good. Return it. Ton of people looking for a used G19 they will shoot it great.

Michael, this is not normal. I would have a friend fire it first just to verify technique and contact Glock if similar results are found. The bore may not be concentrically centered. Cheers and stay safe!.

Jason G. · Answer

That is not normal for a Glock.  You should be hitting point of aim.  Are there any aftermarket parts on the gun? Slide, barrel, sights, that could be causing the issue.  Take a look at the muzzle end of the slide, where the barrel protrudes upon recoil.  Is the hole centered in the slide?  Measure it with a caliper from each side of the gun.  They should be equal. I have a Ruger slide where the hole mas machined off-center from the factory, causing the gun to shoot left.  If the gun is bone-stock and a second shooter has the same issue, take it back.
