    there have been numerous accounts of them coming loose inside the receiver and getting chewed up in the FCG, rendering the weapon inoperable.. there's users here that have seen it happen first hand.

    How can one be sure they were not installed correctly in the first place?

    Yes, since I am a accuwedge consumer I do not spend enough time with my firearm.

    THE point is, Does it make the weapon perform any better in critical, measurable ways? increase accuracy? increase the reliability? reduce time between stoppages? etc?

    if it does not, then using one in only increasing the probability (no matter how big or little) of something going wrong, and Murphy turning your carbine into an expensive club. and maybe when you need it most.

    BTW, does murphy ever come around when you are dealing with matters of little importance? didn't think so

    They have a history of either coming out of place and/or disintegrating over time. This is well documented over many years. Don't take this personal.

    Or better yet just buy a shit ton of them and put them in all of you AR's. They serve no practical purpose but if you sleep better at night good for you.

    It's been discussed oft enough here.

    The majority of people cant shoot to the carbines capabilities anyways, it's not like this little 3.00 part is really going to help.

    I think it has already been shown that they don't help. And you are correct.
