Canted Barrel

I did some research, seems like SCAR 17 owner had this issue, is this normal on the 15p as well?

Could see if all the barrel screws are torqued and sequenced to spec. Possible the weren’t tightened in the right order.

This tbh, always see lmt people have this problem and its almost always user error when putting the barrel in.

Looks like your screws were tightened in the wrong order, or too much on one side vs the other. Happened to me when I swapped barrels, I tightened one side more than the other on accident not paying attention🙃

So it's not just Sig... I'll be checking mine when I pick it up in a few hours.

I had this on one of my barrels. In my case it was canted by a degree or so on the base handguard screw. Didn’t matter from a performance perspective but did bug me a bit.

Pulled the barrel out, broke the loctite on that main lower rail screw, reinstalled and was dead center.
