OK, if I understand you correctly, your front sight is just a standard sight dovetailed into the barrel. The fact that you say one side is raised up leads me to believe the dovetail notch may be damaged. Without actually seeing the problem, it's hard to diagnose, but what I think you'll have to do is get a brass drift and tap the sight out of it's slot in the barrel. Then, with a small ball peen hammer, carefull tap the notch back into shape. Then, carefully, using the brass drift again, tap the front sight back into place. When it looks as if it's properly centered, you'll have to shoot a few rounds to see where it's hitting at the range you usually shoot at. If it's off a bit, tap the front sight with the drift to the opposite direction you want the bullet to hit. If it's hiiting to the right, move the front sight to the left. However, if when centered, the sight is not very far off, you could adjust by tapping the rear sight in the direction you wish the bullets to hit.
Not sure this will cure the problem going sight unseen, but I hope this helped.
