First of all let me preface this by saying this is my first AR (but hopefully not my last).

I purchased a 20" varmint kit from m-aparts.com which arrived today. have
Anyway, I'm just wondering if this is something that would be easily fixed myself (with some instruction), or if I should contact M&A next week and see about an exchange.

Any assitance will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Mike W.

Are these the holes for the sling mount? Does the tube have an adjustment ring?

Yes, I am referring to the holes for the sling, and if I'm looking at this right, there is an adjustment ring, and I'm betting I can just loosen that, adjust the position, and retighten it.

YES.  I did my first one a few weeks ago and it took a few trys to get it all straight. I just ran the adjustment sleeve down all the way, then ran the tube all the way down and then backed the tube off and the adjustment sleeve until I could line the slings holes up at the bottom. Loosen and tighten, loosen and tighten till it's right.

Good luck.
