Bullets not shooting from action point

[dub]

I have my action point set to the middle of my player object.
Yet when I fire a bullet, it is created at seemingly random locations from my player character...

When my character is facing left the bullets appear to be coming from the players head and when I turn right they appear to originate from the characters feet. I makes no sense to me
I have checked that the action point is at the exact same location for each of the characters directions.

Have you checked the hotspot for the bullets?
If that is off centre and it's other directions were created by rotating the original image, you would get the effect your seeing.
Check that and let us know the result

Oh dear... I feel like a complete idiot now. :|

That was exactly the problem. The hotspots were off on certain frames of the bullets. I thought I had checked, guess not. Thanks for taking the time to help and sorry for my silly post.
