Just bought a red dot sight fitted it and have now discovered that the sight is constantly pointing left of the barrel and won't adjust to be inline and even bigger **** up can't see the sight when i've got my mask on cos it hits the stock.
I do have an offset mount on order to sort that but the sight being skew is getting right on my nerves what do you reckon sack it off and send it back???
Or am i missing something??????

A sight? Paintballs dont fly straight, not sure what use a sight would be.

In the woods days of old, used to see a few sights and gadgets like that from time to time, but I think they were mainly for show factor (although sure they are made to be practical), or this is what I assume. If paintballs flew really straight, Id understand :)

basically it is a bit of a show thing because my bt4 had been raped of loads of bits when i got it so it has no form of sight what so ever and i thought this would be a good idea obviously not so great now. cheers for the info though

To be honest, your better off watching where your paint is flying, rather than aiming down a sight, as others have said, paintballs tend not to fly straight unless your shooting a stirling STP :p
