It came up short in that operating environment. Fact. Otherwise SOCOM wouldn’t have contacted Mr. Lewis with a list of problems. Agree it can be overkill for the casual shooter. If you believe that you will do nothing more than casually shoot your AR, then yeah. Probably a nice to have. However if you ever suspect you may use it differently, I don’t see anything wrong with the “insurance”.

I don’t know about helpful, I just get fired up with the finality some guys have towards some manufacturers out there. I mean if you were talking about some BS part from a boutique AR manufacturer who’s aspiration is Instagram or FB likes, then I probably would have been on the other side of the fence. But this is not that.
And as ABNAK said - it’s your shekels.

It was meant specifically to help with the early unlocking and excess bolt velocity issues inherent to the M4 carbine gas system. The LMT enhanced bolt has an elongated cam path to delay unlocking for better extraction and an additional and relocated gas vent to blow out more gasses out the carrier. Running suppressed on a 14.5" carbine barrel is a less than ideal configuration so both of these modifications will definitely benefit the OP's rifle.
Unsuppressed the gains the pretty marginal but for the suppressed use it would definitely help. Better yet would be to use a midlength gas system with a small gas port.
