It shoots to the right by about 4 inches at 50 feet.I've shot only 3 or 4 CO2 cartridges with it. I have the rear sight completely to the left and it's still way off . Is there anything i can do to make this pistol more accurate? I have a 3576 revolver that is more accurate.

The front sight moves very easily. I bought a new one made out of aluminum on the hpasports website. Here's the one I bought: http://hpasports.com/pages/product-catalog-detail/2.5%22__20_Port_Muzzle_Brake_for_Crosman_22xx_Series?previous_url_id=1 _________________ Airguns: Two starlings talking "Larry, did you hear that?

I'll check it out Monday if I can get to the firing range then.
