I guess this is as good a place as any for this post.....I have a stamped-receiver Norinco MAK-90 that I bought in '94 or so, and have never fired it (I have a milled-receiver Norinco with a few thou rounds through it, though). I am going to shoot this stamped-receiver this weekend, hopefully. I noticed something the other day....
The large-pin portion of the front sight, the part that the sight stem is threaded through, is off-center by about 1/16". The sight post is very noticeably off-center when sighting it. The pin has two markings for lining the sight up with the sight base, but the off-center one is the one that is lined up, instead of the actual center one.......Ok...I hope you could follow that. Anyway, how do I push that pin over so the front sight stem is in the center? I am assuming that this was an oversight (pun intended) at the factory and not that this is where the sight needs to be to shoot straight. I'm going to fire it "as-is", but I want to be able to adjust the sight at the range, if I have to.
