Well I received the stainless carrier the other day. It's pretty slick and cycles super smooth. I also have the newer JP bolt as well. It uses a standard extractor.
One thing I noticed right off the bat were the gas key stakes. I want your opinion on this. One sides seems properly staked as pictured. My concern is with the opposing side.
It seems like the person doing the assembly either half-assed it or it was done on purpose.
Your thoughts?

The macro mode on my camera sucks. The side that appears barely staked is indeed staked but not to the degree of the opposite side. There is metal contacting the bolt head. Are two proper stakes going to hold the bolt in in a catastrophic event?
