Possible Fabarm problem....

[Throttle_monkey1]

Hey guys, happy Easter!

I have a 14" Fabarm martial composite. I love the gun, and use it as a defense gun when camping etc.

I have noticed a problem though. When shooting slugs out of it, I find that it groups well, but about 4-5" to the right of where I am aiming. Does anyone know if this is the barrel, or if it is me? If it is something mechanical, can problems like this be corrected fairly easily? I am just curious, as one day I might have to defend my life from a bear with it, and don't want to have to guess with my aiming.

Thanks in advance for any and all input.

I guess no one has experienced a similar problem. What do I do?

One obvious thing, -have you tried adjusting your windage? I am assuming you have the model that has adjustable rear sights on the picatinny rail?

Mine shoots bang on everytime.It has the adjustable sights but I havnt had to move them right from the get go.
PS: I have mine up for sale in the EE forum

I do not have adjustable sights on mine. I might have to buy a rail and get some adjustable sights so I can zero this thing. I will have to give TSE a call and see how much a rail and sights will run me.

It never even crossed my mind to try going with adjustable sights. Thanks for the idea guys

tried another brand of slug?

How far out are you shooting?
I wouldn't try to get rifle like accuracy from your shotgun using slugs past 20m.

You could always ask someone else to try to see if it is you

 

[Throttle_monkey1]

yeah I will try that. All brands of slugs seem to be going 5" to the right at 25 m

If you're doing that consistently, then it must have something to do with the way you mount the gun, or the way it fits you. You need sights on that. no question.

 

[Throttle_monkey1]

yeah, I will also have someone else try it too, to see if it does the same thing for them

I'll volunteer if you supply the slugs, Rob

 

[Throttle_monkey1]

haha, no you supply the slugs, i will supply the shotgun.

I can't afford slugs. I'm unemployed!
