Like most filed front sights, the flat top makes them as obviously a non-factory shaped sight, as a turd in the punch bowl.
My remedy is as simple as just filing it a little more to rid it of the flat top by copying the roundness shape of an unaltered front sight. That's the only way to make it more original than it is.
If it shoots high or low with my load, I wouldn't care. I'd just use some "Kentucky" elevation adjustment to my sight picture to hit dead center target with it. They're fixed sights, so it can't shoot to point of aim at all ranges, you have to do that anyway. Your sight picture will have to be adjusted at different distances already. Just know your gun and where it shoots with your loads at most common ranges that you may use it for, and learn/memorize how to hold the sights for each.
You can use a sight picture with front blade raised or lowered in the rear notch, or keep the front sight level with rear notch and hold high or low on the target, which I prefer. Because if I know my gun shoots say, 10" high at 25 yards, it's easier for me to judge and aim where 10" low is on the target.
