How much of a non issue is it really? The stack of tolerances should allow the bolt to "float" without interference during the high pressure event without a vector of force that could drive it otherwise in a non linear torsional matter.
When the tolerance stack is added up, you can see how well or poorly these components can come together.
During the initial free cam path before unlocking in the carrier pathway there is no torsional force applied.
When the carrier caming comes into play, there is an equal force distributed in both planes.
To keep it simple and short, nobody really wants to waste applied force to hammer and displace material, more should be done to work the action instead of that. The balance of some tolerances in real world scenarios can make a great scene and should not be overlooked.
While it may be harder to see a reduced stress scenario, it is easy to see higher stressed ones and ways to avoid that to a degree at least.
I really wonder about those positions with the LMT enhanced carrier and how can that be in a few ways, even with a bolt that could be less than desirable compared to the normal M16 carrier and upper.
I have used a Knights E3 bolt with no overly tight feel.
Lube it and run it.
Did you see my post explaining it's supposed to be that way
I can't recall the exact statement, but there was something about it being intentionally tighter to allow less gas to escape
My friend had an issue with the enhanced bolt carrier and some brand new Rainier branded bolts. The bolts would not install into the carrier.
His used Bushmaster bolt went right in and worked without any issues.
