Who charges you to do the instant check. It is free in most places.

As to the Glock, I would send it back to the them if you don't know how to drift the sight over. Much better to have the factory correct the POI problem than to have them fix a broken sight or worse yet, a messed up frame. You already know it shoots well. As far as having someone else shoot the gun for you, don't waste your time with this unlees he is the smith you want to work on it. Everyones POI will be different and a smith has to have you shoot the gun and then he will shoot it and move the sights according to the difference between the two of you. Also, I would have someone watch you shoot. Could it be that you are limp wristing the gun. By this I mean you may not be holding the pistol with the wrist locked in allowing the gun to recoil differently and throw the POI off. It does happen to a lot of folks and is easily corrected by the proper grip. Some guns won't shoot very well at all when shot like this and some even will malfunction. You have a good group, so what ever the problem is, it should be an easy fix. Good luck with it.
