  2. Help for a New Guy with a Saiga .223

    in Saiga .223

    Posted

    Hi guys

     

    Thanks for the fast replies! Yes it's not just the front sight that's not straight it seems to be the whole barrel.

     

    So after fitting the quad rail I can look down the rail and it's noticeably off centre from where the barrel meets the receiver!

     

    The front sight is cantered slightly too which doesn't help! And the rear sight is definitely crooked too!

     

    I've been to the range today at its accurate at 100m with iron sights though - that's despite it looking bent!

     

    Best photos I can do, looks more bent in reality!

    Hi Guys

     

    My names Dan and I'm from England. I own a Saiga .223 M3. I have only recently bought it but I have noticed a few little things that I'm not sure if they are faulty or just traits of a Saiga.

     

    1. I have installed a UTG Quad Rail, looking down the rifle it appears that the whole barrel and rail is slightly cantered to the right from where it meets the receiver?

     

    2. The Fore-sight looks crooked slightly to the right of vertical.

     

    3. The whole rear sight unit seems crooked or off centre, it even looks like the block that the rear sight sits on is slightly off centre.

     

    I should mention the rifle shoots straight though and apart from it annoying me to look down there are no faults to speak of.

     

    Are these normal issues and just stem from the fact this is a budget weapon?

     

    Thanks in advance

     

    Dan
