TT33 Shoots a foot low at 15 yds:-(

My 213 is doing the same thing after installing the comp. I had already filed the sights becasue it shot way high at first,so I couldn't do enough with what left. I carefully welded up the sights, reshaped and recut them. Now I just have to fine tune.
 
Since I do not know the experience level of the shooter in question... could you be flinching?

Other then that, the next two most likely candidates are bad ammo and poorly installed/ manufactured sights.

Thats a bit curious. The couple that I have fired all shot high.

Those things eject the brass fast enough to be a hazard at 15 yards too!

Explains why I could not find my empties, they were tossed into the rifle range.

But, really ,a foot low @ 15 yds? Did the Sovs use a different aim?
 
My T33 shoots to POA at 20 yards. Groups about 10". I suggest you buy another rear sight (so you still have an original to re-install if need be) and build that new sight up and re-cut a notch in it. A dab of weld should do it.
 
Mine shoots consistantly ( or perhaps; I shoot ) high and left with the 9mm barrel and pretty much bang on with the 7.62mm barrel. I just adjusted my POA so that I can hit with it.

Tried my 9mm bbl today. Same thing... shoots low. Must be me:mad:

Also discoverd that anything other than round nose bullets does not work well. Same thing with my P1. Both (TT33 in 9mm, and the P1) work flawlessly as long as I feed them round nose bullets, anything else causes feeding issues.

As for the low issue, guess I'll get a spare rear sight and experiment with that. Now to find someone with welding skills?

Try bench shooting your pistol and see where your MOA is first. If your flinching down ajusting your sight will do nothing.

flinch/anticipation

The other thing you can do is get yourself three or four dummy rounds and load them at random intervals with your live rounds in the magazine. Take your time shooting and pay very close attention to what your front sight is doing. If you are anticipating the recoil (flinching) you will see it very clearly when you squeeze on a dummy. Don't let yourself rack another round until you squeeze the trigger and the sight doesn't move. Just #### the hammer. This should answer the question on whether or not you are anticipating as well as train your reflexes to overcome it. Remember "equal height, equal light"
