Wouldn't grinding down your front sight work??

10" low at 10 yards?!?!?!?!? something radically wrong with the basic configuration, bad machining on the slide maybe. Is there a barrel bushing on the slide?. I'd send it back to them till they get it right!

I agree with Robin above. Something seems very wrong here. Shooting straight would seem to me like it was shooting left or right previously but ok height wise. Now you’re saying it is shooting 10” low and a red dot can’t adjust for this.
Im not sure I would change anything and let them handle it. Also, there is no way to know if suppressor height sights will correct this issue because they are made to be replaced in pairs and shoot as the normal sights would. I get your idea and thinking but there is no way to know if that will actually pan out besides a pig in a poke guess. I would call them and speak with them to see what was done and why this might be occurring. Good luck.

That's what I'd suggest, provided of course there's enough to file down...Remember, it takes very little to effect a lot of change.

First thought was "Oh no, not another @Podmonkey S&W Horror Story....took him sending his premium Revolver back several times before they decided it was manufacturing error and not operator headspace & timing.

May have to retrain yourself to cover the target. I carry my gen 1 Bodyguard a bit. But I don't expect much out of over the 3 yard shot. Hopefully just enough cover shot for me to leave the threat.
