AK 47 front sight

[Armnhammer]

I just purchased a Romanian AK and it appears my whole front sight is twisted to the left. Has anyone fixed this or know a good how to link (I looked on bs)

Is it the m+m 10? Just wondering.

 

[Armnhammer]

How can I check that?

And it was purchased used.

It would have the make and model on the side. I'll attach a link to pick... http://www.cogunsales.com/index.php...AK-Type-Rifle-7.62x39/flypage.pbv.v2.tpl.html

If it is, then they should honor warranties and I would call them. On the left hand side of mine it clearly states the model and manufacturer.

No m+m it says
GP WASR-10/63

Maybe a pic of the issue would help generate some assistance. Is the front sight twisted or the whole assembly?

WASRs are famous for that. I have seen a few videos on YouTube showing different options to fix this.

Have you considered returning the item to the individual you got it from? The repair for this problem seems manageable if one had the correct tools and know how. Also, you have the option of removing the front sight all together and adding a scope and base.... Hope this is helpful, good luck!

Got a really good deal bc of this problem. I have a red dot but no mount so I may just put that on here.

 

[dmurph]

That means you are already half way there.... best of luck!

Thanks for the input.
