noticed yesterday the barrel is canted about 1/32 to the left of center . That was one of the things i was going to check when i picked it up , BUT i forgot my reading glasses and could not see very well .

Shoot it off the bench with the factory iron sights . This will tell you if the barrel is canted . If it shoots center bull with the rear sight centered then I wouldn't worry about 1/32" .
