I just noticed that the ARMS 18 mount I have on my SAI M1A Loaded is canted to the left. When looking from the rear, the right edge is higher than the left.
This mount came with the rifle and I haven't noticed this before. I have mainly been shooting with iron sights and when I look through the channel on the mount, I can see the sights just fine. The only things I have done with the mount was to make sure the side screw on the receiver was secure and the set screw in the stripper clip dovetail was secured with Loc-Tite. I have not pulled it off and re-mounted it. The angle of cant is not profound but it is noticeable.
I am guessing that this is probably not that big of an issue. As long as I can set a scope in its rings with the cross hairs level, it should still work fine, right?
