I hope this is in the right area.
I was wondering if anyone was having trouble with the M4 unscoped series of weapons. I created a map lastnight with some enemy soldiers and a weapons crate that had m4's in it. I initialy used the "Red Dot" and was tagging enemy in the 200 meter range with no problem.

I next used the M4 open sight weapons and shot at the enemy and I couldn't hit them. The bullets were hitting 10 feet above on a Aircraft hanger wall that was behind them. I had to aim about 2 or 3 feet below them in order to get a hit. I tryed this with both prone and squat shooting zoomed. I was not using the Hold Breath option.

Has anyone noticed this, is this a known problem, or is there something I have done wrong? I qualified expert in the target training with only 1 miss so I know how to shoot.

The iron sights seem to be zeroed in at a certain range. At close ranges the shot will hit well above the top of the front pin.

It makes aiming seem awkward.

Just tested and at a range of 30m the bullet will hit way above the front pin (about 2/3 of the pins lenght above).

This makes aiming very awkward.

This isn't a troubleshooting issue.

If it's a bug then use the bug thread please for reporting bugs.

Or better yet use the Community Wiki bug page (http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Armed_Assault:_Bugs_List) to report the issue along with clear reproduction. That's the only place that it's really feasible to makes reports where and how BIS can use them.

And don't forget you should only report bugs/problems with 1.01, we have no interest in reports from people who are not updating their ArmA.
