Question about Daniel defense rifle and rear sight alignment

[davebee456]

Hey just wondering after sighting in my new DDXV rifle with the Daniel defense rear sight i noticed I had to adjust my rear sight maybe 5 click to the left and now the aperture looks funny to me but the rifle is pretty much dead on at 25 meters With this adjusted
Is that normal ?

Have you ever fired an AR before? Are you new to the platform?

Really a noobie to AR 15 style rifles but love them so far
250 rounds through it so far in a week
The sights threw me though just thought maybe the barrel isn't adjusted right or etc

Now that we have that out of the way. Yes, that is normal and or acceptable. Unacceptable would be for it to be cranked all the way to the left or right.

What type of target did you use for the zero and what type of zero did you establish?

I used a M4 25/300 meter zeroing target, my rear sight is not cranked all the way to one side but it is noticeable when looking at the sight
Thanks guys

dave,

We don't need a pic. It was already stated that it is normal.

Normal. Mine did this too

Thanks for the pic. It helped me understand the question.

Yes, I am an AR noob too.

For some reason it seems to me that alot of the DD rear sights I have seen(and mine on my DDM4) all seem to like to be over about there to the left. Has anybody else noticed this? I dont remember any of the Troy's I have used having to go that far to the left.
