Hey guys,

I've got an AR with a canted front sight.

I don't mind shipping this out to a qualified gunsmith since there isn't any around here. Upper has a gas block/ front sight.

All I ask is that it's not returned until the upper passes the flat surface test. Anyone know of any reputable gunsmiths? this isn't just about assembling an AR( I can do that myself) so I would like to have a reputable gunsmith take a look at it.

Thanks.

Central Valley California. Front sight is pinned by the way.

Nobody here knows a gunsmith in this entire country that can fix my problem?

Might be worth an email to Adco Firearms. Not sure what it would take since the barrel is already drilled, but they do a lot of AR work and are good about responding to email questions. Quick turnaround and fair pricing.

+1 on checking with Steve and the crew at ADCO. Here is a link to their website in case you've not heard of them before:

Good luck!

send your barrel back to whoever made it and get a new one without canted front sight from them, you don't need to get a gunsmith just warranty and customer service.
hope this helps.

If your front site is pinned with taper pins there is no way to fix it. The only thing to do is remove it and put on an after market one
