Centurion Complete Carbine Now Available - Thoughts?

So I didn't notice when I picked them up but my complete rifles and the uppers I ordered don't have dry film lube in them. I don't think it really matters that much in the grand scheme of things, but MUH MIL-SPEC! Haha. But seriously, did anyone else notice this in their upper?
ETA: anyone have any suggestions on why the trigger reset would be weak/delayed and sometimes just not reset? And also stupid question #2 I've noticed a rattle in one of the uppers. It is being caused by the silver tab that is pinched between the gap in the handgaurd. Does this tab work like on a wedge lock hand gaurd? Should I fix it? Not worry about it?

The tab you refer to is an over torque plate. Someone may beat me to it and post the instruction they will provide for install specs including the torque values. My guess is they didn't on this one or they did and the torque specs did not close the gap.

The trigger is just the phosphating which is rough at first, especially on a "mil-spec" trigger/hammer. Oil the contact points and do some dry fires and it will stop-or hit the range. You can speed it up by oiling (or greasing) the contact points and adding pressure on these points by pulling the hammer forward slightly as you work the trigger through the release and recocking cycles.

Was goofing around today, working on positions (not showing that work, haha) and thought I would do a group using a load I developed for the 20" 5R barrel. 6X scope at 100 using a 4x4 for a rest on the front. 77 grain SMK/8208xbr/BR4.
Not bad for this barrel and stock trigger, again, Gotta have something to do!
