So, after ignoring AK's, like a lawn that needs mowed, I finally own one. Nothing like the government banning something to peek a man's interest (i.e. Russian manufactured models). I received one as a Christmas present from the family. After researching the platform in depth, I settled on the Arsenal SLR 107-34. The rifle is really nice and straight, as far as the receiver, gas block, and front sight assembly. Since it's arrival I've been trying to make it mine with a few tasteful mods. The other day I decided to swap the brake. When I pulled off the OEM unit I noticed the spring loaded detent was at about the 11 o'clock position instead of the 12 which I was expecting.
I fired off a quick email with a photo (this was about a week ago) to Arsenal customer service asking if this is normal. A quick google search only yielded a photo of one sight block that looked similar. Well, I just received a reply from Jennifer with Arsenal. Her reply was, "I don't understand what you are asking. Your picture is too close up. Can you take one from further away."
Needless to say, I won't be following up with Jennifer. Can any of you tell me if the detent is supposed to be off center? See pics below and thanks in advance. FYI, the sight block photo is the same one I sent Arsenal. The other two are of the one I found online and an overview of the actual rifle.
