I was cleaning my Arsenal SGL-31 after shooting some corrosive ammo and noticed there is a slight wobble toward the base of the gas piston. The picture shows a little space which is not on the other side. I've put roughly 500 rounds through this rifle.
Is this normal? Question answered. Thanks everyone. Thanks for your help!

| The gas piston was designed to wobble, that's the way Mr. K. designed it. It lets the piston "float" through the gas tube and comensate for any slight mis alignment with the gas block. Some AK's pistons are tight and slowly losen up others come new with the wobble. I want my piston to have some wobble and have even drilled and repinned them to get the wobble. |
