If you can afford the ammo, it's a great gun. The iron sights seem weird though, like they seem to be off-center by a lot.

The Brush Gun is boresighted up and to the right by quite a bit. That means you must aim to the left of the target and slightly low. Test it out a bit on distant targets and you'll get the feel for it.

Which is almost like having both eyes open with a real gun (if you are right handed).

There is a set of replacer animation which fix this issue on Nexus.

The reason the sights are like that, sry i know this one lol i have a brush shooter in real life, 30 30 max carbine to be exact is because the sight grade on them is low, they are meant for quick firing, not elongated aiming, maybe they just wanted to simulate that.

Actually, it's a problem with the programming. They screwed the pooch on the sight alignment, credit to whoever here posted the screen shots showing how bad it was. As for the sights of the real life rifles being "off", those rifles (Winchester 1886, Marlin 1895, etc.) often came with very accruate sights. I have some Winchester advertisemants somewhere around here from about 1886 that show about 20 different sights available. My thinking is if your sight is "off" and you're marking it up to a poor design, then you might want to see what you can do at the range and sight the thing in. My brother (a 20yr Army guy) is constantly complaining about some new rifle he's purchased that isn't shooting "right". Then I take it, dial in the correct dope on the sights, and voila!, nuthin' but bulls. Huh. Army.
