If you have a set of irons, slap them on and try to zero. If the same thing happens, the barrel was put on crooked.
You didn't have problems posting to this forum. What makes you think you will have any problems finding someone who is competent at making AR-15's? Come on guy...

I had gotten magpul mbus sights and did sight them in at the same time as the scope. I did have to adjust the windage to the right. However I did not use all of the adjustment. There is 15-20 "clicks" left on the right adjustment, I dont know what that transfers to, but looking at the knob it seems to be 1/4 turns. It is easy to see that the sight is not centered by looking at it in position to the base of the sight. Would this be indicative of poor barrel alignment?
I am still confused how I would have got the barrel out of alignment. It looks strait and was never taken out of the notch in the upper. This upper is from a stag arms model 1, with a 16in barrel. I had an eotech xps2 on there before I put the new rail system on and had no problems zeroing that. I understand though that an electronic optic probably has a greater level of adjustment.
I don't have a camera other than my cell phone but I'll try and borrow one so that I can post pics.
As per finding a gun smith, I was thinking of finding one locally. I have never taken anything to one before, so I didn't know what to look for. This has been corrected.
Thanks
