Is this still going on with the stamped arsenal guns?

Going to buy an arsenal this year. Debating milled vs stamped. Heard there was a huge fiasco with canted front sights on the stamped guns.

Just picked up an SLR 104. Front sight windage adjustment was definitely needed for zero. Mine was about 2 inches left from POA at 25 yards. Still, awesome little gun!

All mine were fine. I would say that it is better to look the gun over prior to buying it if you can.

Crazy. You would think they would use a jig to keep everything aligned when they drill the pin holes.
