[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Night sights install

Posted: 2/17/2010 5:25:49 PM EDT

I put some night sights on my 17 yesterday and after loctiting everything on, screwing it down, and letting it dry I noticed the front sight was slightly canted. Will this throw the accuracy off or just let it ride? Thanks.

It will be fine.

Cool thanks. I didnt know how critical it was to sight alignment to be a little canted.

Honestly, if you take a pair of needle nose pliers you can straighten it out.

Not necessary as GR noted above, but if it bothers you, its correctable.

Thought about that. Even wrapped the pliers with electrical tape but thought that it might make the screw loosen. If it wont do that I might give that a try then. You think it will loosen it?
