The Firing Line Forums - View Single Post - Front sight too short what are my options?

I bought an Auto Ordnance M1 carbine replica a couple months ago that came with the flip site. It was shooting high 3" and left 3" so I replaced it with a Kensite adjustable site, but it shoots about 7" high at 100 yards even on the lowest setting. I was thinking about getting a new front site but I'm afraid it wont be tall enough and I'd hate to waste money on a new front site if it's the same as the one I have. I'm kinda confused as to what to do and would really appreciate some ideas. Are there any products out there like a front site post extension? I've checked google but didn't find anything.
