I have a M&P 40, which unfortunately I don't have a ton of trigger time on it. My question is this.... at 10 yards is it typical to have a high hold? I understand that shooting 3 dot is different, but at 10 yards I was having to hold at 12 o'clock high instead of just covering the bullseye with the front dot.

You know, it kind of surprised me that the incredibly long and warning-stuffed manual that came with my M&P did not include a diagram of proper sight picture.
Even the 'manual' for my 70-year-old High Standard included that key piece of info... and it's a single sheet of paper, printed on both sides. The entire back being devoted to an exploded view and price list.
I guess priorities in documentation have changed.

I'm with you UncaGrunny. It took me a while to figure out that my M&P 45 "shot to the dot". Once I realized that the front dot should cover point of aim I started hitting what I was aiming at and it helped to shrink my groups down. I looked through the manual again only to find that propoer sight picture is not addressed. I think that's a big oversight in the manual.
I wish the rear sight was adjustable for elevation. I prefer to line up the top of the front sight with the top of the rear sight, and have that bisect the target.

Yep, now we have the internet and a whole lot more lawsuits.
