Question for AK builders.


Recommended Posts

lol that's pretty off center. I have only held a couple 24mm FSB's in my hand that weren't already pressed onto a barrel. Neither of those had any concentric issues that were noticeable at first glance. The one you have is definitely noticeable.

 

Does that mean it could press on with no issues and work fine? No one knows until you try.

 

I'd ping whoever you bought it from and see if you could swap it with one that isn't so obviously off center.

 

The only worry I'd have is the block cracking where it is thinnest when you press it on. Hard to tell from the pic how thin it actually is there. If there's plenty of material it should work fine.

as far as aiming/sighting goes, it doesn't matter as long as the sights can be adjusted to zero.

 

on the other hand, if you want to use a muzzle device, the off-center hole is a bigger concern, because the muzzle device is not going to sit concentric to the bore.. this could lead to baffle strikes on the muzzle device if the opening is not large enough on the muzzle device.
