Type 81 Front sight adjusting

[Kronjoe]

Hey guys,

Bought a Type-81 very recently and took it out yesterday, its shooting almost a whole target width to the right at about 100m. After looking at it, the front sight is clearly off to the left a bit.

What's the proper way to adjust the front sight post, do I need a special tool?

I would also like to know this as mine shoots slightly to the left

Pretty sure for the rifle models u just use a AK sight tool.

I don't see how the SKS/AK front sight tool would work on the type 81 LMG for horizontal movement

Note: the rifleand LMG have very different front sights

lmg was not specified. the lmg is supposed to have everything you need to adjust it in the cleaning kit. forgotten weapons has a video on YouTube about the lmg and he shows you how to adjust the sights
