So last week a buddy and I were out shooting. About 70 rounds in to the morning I noticed the front sight on my Browning Hi Power (40 S&W) looked cocked a tad to the right side.
Puzzled I pinched it between my thumb and index to see if it was lose and it came off in my fingers without any effort. Had the wind been blowing it would have probably fallen off with the preceding shot.
My question is has this ever happened to anyone? I've never dropped it but I did buy it used. Could the previous owner have damaged the sight in some way or could it simply be metal fatigue?
I got a new one ordered and "slid" in this weekend so I should be good to go again. Just curious to hear other peoples experiences.
Pics never hurt
