Front sight dovetail cants left... Any easy fix?

Looking at the first pic and running line from the centre flame point to the muzzle that whole sight block is heading to the right in a big way as the blade if bent would look out of place in the sight block but the whole thing appears rather sadly skew whiff as per Dad comment perhaps bubba played somewhere long the line!

The collar & receiver witness marks do alighn in the pic but are the actual barrel witness marks alighned with the receiver ? You would need to slide the rear sight base forward to confirm .If the sight sleeve if factory installed you will need to remove the barrel & un pin the sleeve They are easy to damage . May be a job for Chuck .

Thanks. I managed to get the sight straight. The screw hole in the sight was filled with crap, any time you tried to tighten the screw down, so that the unthreaded portion of the screw seated in that hole, the sight would cant. After cleaning things up, I was able to put the sight back in the base and screw the sight on straight.

Bush gun smithing works 90% of the time I mean a sight blade aint to much but changing head spacing and chambering up well that's for those with the knowledge and training
