I recently acquired a 20 yr. old Marlin 1894 levergun in .357.
I have not yet had a chance to fire it, only disassembled and cleaned it.
At the FFL that handled the transfer, I asked them to bore-sight the gun with their laser unit. Unfortunately, the shop is rather small and the dealer only had about 25-30' of clear space. Vertical is OK but at that distance, the laser dot appeared to be 2-3" to the left of the "point of aim".
My question is do I fire it first (and at what distance) and possibly have it not on the paper or do I try and "drift" one of the sights?
If "drift" first, which sight and in which direction?
