I have a Shield .45. Sights were off on it. Adjusted the front sight using a brass punch, and a medium heavy (16 oz.) ball peen Hammer. I have a good heavy weight 5" bench vice which is quite sturdy so moving the very tight dove-tailed front sight was no problem!
I take the Shield .45 to the local indoor range almost weekly and generally shoot between 60-80 rds. Gun is one year old and I have shot over 1,700 rds through it! I do pretty good at 10 yds. but still not good enough to meet the "Rastoff Challenge", but I am immproving. These tired old eyes and limbs make it challenge just to shoot the .45 Shield. (What a sweet piece)!
