[ARCHIVED THREAD] - A2 Windage Housing Problem

Posted: 12/17/2004 10:24:49 AM EDT

Gent's,

Seems as if my Rear Sight Windage Housing is being pushed back. Meaning, if you look look straight down on it, there is about a 1/8' of an inch gap bewteen the housing of the windage sight and the carry handle on the left side. I noticed that as I have been shooting, I have to adjust the windage more and more, it is almost 80-90% cranked all the way to the left (as looking) at it for on center shots at 300 yds.

Feels like the spring or bearing is pushing it back.

Any idear's?

TIA! hail.gif

The rear sight housing tracks the upper receiver on the right side only.
The left side has a spring and detent ball to keep the right side tracking true.

All is normal.

This should be a good A-2 sight reference for you. A-2 Sight Construction & Function
