I'd say purty fucked personally but I'm no gunsmith.
I took a different approach with the FSB's. I drilled and tapped the FSB in two places for set screws. Up from underneath in the bayonet lug and through the front sling spot before I put the swivel on. Then I dimpled the barrel in corresponding places. Worked fairly well.
Because I'm a backward ass autistt I actually have a gas block that's handling all the gas stuff the front sight post is literally just there for looks and a hold my stabby stick. Where I drilled did not go through the actual barrel, thankfully
You think it's unsafe? It's no where near the bore
It may not be in the bore, but it'll still weaken the structural integrity. I've no authority to say whether it's safe or not, but that looks sketchy as fuck to me. Test fire remotely, perhaps?
