    LP53 Foresight

    Were different height fore-sight blades available for the Walther LP53?
    My rearsight is fully down, and the pistol still shoots high.
    The South of England has 2 good things, the M1 and the A1. Both will take you to Yorkshire.

    I'm sure someone was selling a boxed LP53 with interchangeable foresights recently, though how obtainable they are separately I couldn't say...
    Good deals with these members

    Certainly there were different profiles supplied with the pistol but as far as I know they were , to all intents & purposes, pretty much the same height. I dont ever recall seeing any taller or shorter ones with a LP53.

    Maybe check that the breech seal hasn’t flattened out? That would cause it to shoot a bit high.

    Not on an LP53, as both sights are on the barrel.
    That was a problem I had with an Original Mod 5. A wafer thin shim under the top half of the breech seal sorted it.

    Ah yes, I do have an LP53 so should have remembered.
    Is the rearsight wound down so far that it is actually touching the breech?
