[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Front sight windage drum.

Posted: 3/17/2012 8:18:59 PM EDT

Hey all, need some help. I figure I might get a quicker response here. I was shooting my AK-74 when I noticed my front sight windage drum has become loose. It will move under recoil as I shoot. Can I buy just a new drum or do I have to replace the entire front sight block? Help. Thanks.

If its a bad fit due to a drum the wrong size, just the drum (id try it first) if the fsb has a out of spec hole, then go the whole fsb

if you're going to replace a fsb eventually, would you be able to temporarily glue or weld the drum in? obviously test another drum first.

If going that route id set it where you want it...drill a hole from the front through the fsb and drum.. Then put a pin in it (or small ground.off nail) cleaner then welding. Of if you have a tap set put a small flush allen screw in it amd you can remove it if youd need tto
