I got a converted Saiga .223 and the Front Sight Block was cut off by the previous owner and a Yankee Hill Phantom Flash Hider was installed. He put a bolt-on Ace front sight over the gas block and when I shot it for the first time the front sight ran out of rightward windage adjustment and the Tech sight rear ran out of leftward windage adjustment when I tried to zero it. I noticed that the gas block is canted in relation to the RSB. So what are my options to fix this? Will installing a factory fsb back onto the rifle pinned in-line with the RSB work? Will I have an issue with the facory Saiga handguard fit since the gas block-mounted handguard retention pin will be canted in-relation to the FSB/RSB "axis"? Or is there another route by reworking the RSB? Thanks
