    That thing looks WAY canted, almost like it won't zero. Time to pop out the pins and and straighten it.

      Your damn picture tried to give me a virus.

      It's not really an easy fix because there's a notch for the pin, and the pin is going to want to settle in it. You have a few options that require some metal grinding, but if it can be zeroed as it is, it doesn't affect how it shoots... it's a cosmetic bummer Tho.

          As you can see by the pics the cosmetics are pretty important to me lol. The FSP is perfectly above the bore so I think it will zero. I mean once I figure'd where to hold it decent groups at 50 yards. About 20 rds all in the black of a shoot-n-c and I am no marksmen. If some fabrication is in order I will just deal . Bummer, well if you are looking at a pap skip Riflegears shipment.

                  I have 5 M92 paps back in Texas and all 5 all came with sights canted like that. But who cares, they all hit pretty close to where Im aiming once I align with that silly front sight!


                  The real question is how did you adjust the front sight at all? Its been a few months now since I was around my M92s but I couldn't get either of my AK front sight tools to work on them. Maybe if I remove the handguard I could lower one enough to properly fit on the front sight post but with the handguard on neither of them would align properly.

                      5! Wow glad to know I'm not in this alone haha. Barrel shoots straight it's just cosmetic. I used a regular sight tool and some leverage. It took some serious muscle

                        Another way is to notch rear sight the other way. Wider rear sight notch helps with speed anyway

                          Unbelievable how Zatasava lets them leave the factory. Century dictates build quality, ain't no Mitchell's arms of the 90s thats for sure.

                            Punch the pins out, adjust sight, redrill, smack pins back in.
                            Or
                            Contact riflegear and see if...after six months they will warranty it.
                            Or
                            Check your rifles before you dros them and again when you pick them up...this is the preventative solution.
                            Or
                            Build them yourself...you are then the QC department...

                            And I would call this a first world problem as in the third world they would just zero the rifle and do their thing...not...get on the Internet and try to figure out what to do...

                              PB Blaster is what you need. Use in well ventilated area, spray onto the windage drum and watch it creep into the crevices, wipe away excess, let it work for about 1hr, and then adjust it. Tapco windage tool is all you need.

                              OP, cosmetically, it is undesirable, but if the firearm is zeroed, then it's GTG. F#@k it, keep shooting.
