Hey everyone,


I was doing some work on my new (to me) Arsenal AK, and I noticed that the gas block assembly is off-center on the barrel (about 5-8 degrees to the left). It doesn't seem to be affecting the piston/action, but it looks a bit odd, and I'd like to move it back if it can be done. It seems like it's pinned in place, but given my inexperience with these rifles I figured I'd ask before doing something that could do some damage.


Thanks very much!
