Hey guys, so I was very excited to pick up this arsenal as it was setup almost exactly how i wanted it...however just got done taking it down, and now I'm thinking theres a whole lot more work involved.

I initially noticed the RMR was off by a bit, mounted on an Attero arms bravo mount, but upon further inspection it seems the rifle itself is off.

From what I can tell, and tried to show, is that the receiver is bent/warped starting around the front of the magwell. Looking at the end of the bore vs the rest of the rifle is a pretty big giveaway.

Heres a link to the whole album of pics:

Thoughts guys? Thanks

Looks like canted sight block. Very common for AK. And probably within factory specs.
It is possible to drive pins out, rotate block (may or may not be EZ), re-drill pin holes and drive pins back.
I would just leave it as is.

Not uncommon. Sucks that it happened on an expensive rifle like an Arsenal. I can definitely understand any concern or frustration. But if it’ll zero then you’re in business. Enjoy it.

This is an example of QC issues on the most recent guns. Very concerning based on what these commend for pricing.
