Does anyone know the best way to see if your f. sight base is canted. I know I can sight down the gun but is there an easier or better way. Looking to get one and want to be sure its GTG. Thanks

looking is the best way. If you have others to compare with, that always helps. Scrutinize from many directions so as to get the best angles possible.

Lay a good straight edge along the receiver extended so it's next to the fsb. Measure the distance to the fsb. Repeat on the other side, making sure that the straight edge is in the same position relative to the fsb. If the measurement isn't the same, the fsb is canted.
