New pistol, can is a sico Osprey Micro with qd adapter. Can goes slightly to the right. Swapped can with another micro does the same.

I’ll probaly pop off the qd mount and toss on a different can tomorrow.

Anyone else heard of this with this gun? I usually try and avoid hosts with barrel adapters but everyone has raved about this unit.

What 1/2-28 thread adapter is on the MP?

Who shimmer the micro mount? How many shims did it use?

You have an alignment issue sounds like.  It’s one of the two thread adapters.

If you're talking about the Osprey Micro and that it's not lining up perfectly vertical, alas, that's something you have to live with.

When you look at the alignment chart, there are 36 shim combinations which gives 10 degrees of rotation per window - so even if you get the proper shim combination, the OM may not line up perfectly vertical and have a slight cant to it.

If you're talking about the can angling off to the right, then make sure that it is properly seated on the adapter. There's an o-ring inside the micro and make sure it's not binding and seating properly.

Not the shim timing, that actually worked out perfect on this host.

Thanks, yes I pulled it off a few times to check it and tried another one just to be sure.
